English to Spanish translations [Non-PRO] Art/Literary - Idioms / Maxims / Sayings | | English term or phrase: Daily soap | Hi, colleagues!
I want to know what this means. I do not believe it is about a "soap opera" in this context:
"Facebook is the daily soap".
It could be, but I am not sure, could it mean something else, like "daily bread", for instance?
Thank you very much in advance!
