Sentence 113: Skim The Surface, Gobsmacked, Chalk And Cheese

I hoped to understand the matter better, but the presentation only skimmed the surface.
He was totally gobsmacked when he got sacked from one day to the other.
My brother and me are like chalk and cheese – he likes business, I like arts.


I'm learning from British TV series and books, so maybe I am using some british colloquial verbs and idioms.

He was totally gobsmacked when he got sacked from one day to the otherout of the blue.

Not sure what "from one day to the other" means. "Out of the blue" = all of a sudden, with no warning, perhaps for no obvious reason.
