'Ya See?' 'know what I'm say'n?' "Berfday" for Birthday "Norf" for north "axe" for ask |
or my all time fav...
"my fingers smell like pussy, here see for your self..." |
That reminds me,
"There's two things that smell like fish and one of them is fish" |
A couple of my favorites with the explanation as I understand it (discaimer, might be urban myths but they makes good stories):
"Go the whole nine yards" is supposed to refer to the British fighter pilots in the battle of Britain. Seems the hurricanes they were flying had ammo belts that were nine yards long and their orders were to go the whole nine yards, in other words don't come back until you are dead or out of ammo. "Cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey" does not mean what you might think, it is resportedly traced back to the time of the great navy battles of Great Britain and Spain. A brass monkey was a box that was bolted down next to the cannon. It was square and designed to hold a stacked pyramid of cannon balls, which were often made out of brass. In extremely cold weather, water would accumulate in the brass monkey and freeze. When the water turned to ice it expanded, causing the cannon balls to fall off the stack and roll around. |

You want a lickin'?
My Dad used to ask us kids that when we were in trouble. Did you/who let one? Again, dear ol' Dad asking us questions. |
"That will stick like snot in a screen door"
I laughed so hard I thought I would cry when a friend said that as we were installing some laminate on a cabinet. It was so funny to me because I know, from first hand experience as a kid, that luggies are next to impossible to get out of a screen door. Gross, I know. |
Is this about sayings you don't understand? Or saying you hate?
