Hey!
1) For no reason at all, eg: "He dropped the can of paint on her head just for the heck of it"
2) To not be grateful for something which others definitely would. eg: "Because he had had that magnificent tree-house in his garden all his life, he took it for granted"
3) Cought unawares, surprised etc. eg: "He was busy smoking a cigarrette behind the bike sheds, but the teacher cought him off guard"
Hope that helps :)

"Could you please explain why you want someone to explain these expressions for you?"
just for the heck of it.
lol no j/k. But I take it for granted that the visitors of this website don't have any problems answering my questions. So, why not ask what comes to mind? huh? Also, I have to say that I'm caught off guard by such a question coming from the moderator of the forum. If it were from somebody else like Stan, no body would give a care.
Anyways, I really miss the other old guys like Mjd and Mi5 Mike.
