'Like watching grass grow' = giống như ngắm cỏ cây lớn lên -> làm một việc rất ngốc nghếch hoặc buồn tẻ.

Ví dụ
About 20 percent of comments were derogatory (làm xúc phạm đến (uy tín, danh dự, danh giá, quyền lợi...), không xứng với (phẩm giá, địa vị...)) towards women's skills and athleticism (thể thao), such as "sorry girls ... men do it better" or "it's like watching grass grow". Almost 14 percent of them were sexual in nature (về bản chất mang tính nhục dục).

The hardest part of it was, in the beginning, just watching - waiting six months, longer even, for just the rubble (mảnh vụn) to be cleared off the property. Then waiting for the permanent (lâu dài) process, it just was like watching grass grow.

Well, you're right. It's sort of like watching grass grow. Not a lot has happened. The two sides have been dancing around each other. There have been some discussions. And I think over the past few months, there actually has been some forward movement, but it's been very quiet and not visible to the public.
