Sniff out - To find something. It is like a semi-metaphor, comparing the person to a dog.
"I sniffed out the best place to have some lunch"
"Where is he hiding? Sniff him out!"
Barge in on - to interrupt.
"You can't just barge in on a private meeting like that!"
"Someone barged in on them having sex"
Fake my way through - to get through something by pretending.
"I faked my way through the interview"
"You can't just fake your way through this process"
From where I sit - "this is my point of view" used for example when someone is observing other people debating something, arguing
"Look, I understand that this is a big deal to you, but from where I sit the whole thing looks ridiculous"
"From where I sit, it looks like both are you are barking up the wrong tree!" (there's another one for you! it means accusing the wrong person)
"From where I sit, the whole situation looks like a waste of time"
