I need a ‘not my pigs/not my farm’ equivalent lol
My farm / not my pigs: Oh god, 30-50 wild hogs ran onto my lawn within 3-5 minutes while my small kids play !!!
I probably would have ordered my matrix so that my/my and (not my)/(not my) were the diagonal elements, but that’s just nitpicking I suppose.
No, you’re absolutely right, that bothered me too as someone who often makes these kinds of matrices.
“not my circus, not my monkeys” has more of an undertone of “i don’t give a fuck about this very clearly not-my-problem” and you’re obliquely calling people who got it into this situation in the first place clowns (at least in polish)
Based on the pattern, “My circus, not my monkeys” should be “I am running a successful monkey circus with rented monkeys”
And “Not my circus, not my monkeys” should be “Why did I rent all these monkeys? This was a mistake.”

I posit “successful” is an assumption that does not hold
