We say this stuff pretty much every day without realizing it's got history. This one hails from the pages of my father who endlessly told me how much I don't know shit. Really? One day Dad I'm gonna grow up to host a pod
My father endlessly shot this line out every chance he could get, "You don't know your ass from a hole in the ground." Where did it come from and why is something so blunt and shameful still being used?
Tell your story walking. In this age of people talk talk talking with no real message to take in, what's the best way to rid your scene with a pain in the ass self-motivated talker?
Wow! Sounds harsh! Could be our present-day place in history. This phrase has a lengthy journey and meaning coming from ships with sails. It actually has nothing to do with swinging cats.
You need your head examined. Ha! Can we count on our hands the number of times that has been thrown at us? It's got an amazing history and rightfully it wasn't about poking fun at another person.
We always associate to the moon and back to Jackie Gleason from The Honeymooners. Did he or didn't he say it? If not, where did it come from and what's been its total impact?
Those things our parents once said. One of them being, "Life is like riding a bicycle." Where does it come from? Has it always been a metaphor? Who was it for?
Those things our parents would say. One that once popped up a lot in the lives of young adults was the infamous birds and the bees.
Every week someone we know toys around with this as a way of gaining not only attention but control, "I wrote the book on this."
He's a leak in the attic. Meaning a person isn't all there. A decision that didn't pay off correctly or any other issue that requires the mind to generate movement forward. Not so popular today because of not being very
Friends have said it and trust me teachers and principals wanted to, "Don't give me your sack of shit." Where does it come from and who put it into our daily speak?
I can hear my dad's WWII military driven voice even today, "Keep your cotton pickin hands off my..." I'm not sure he would get away with saying it today. Why?
This one goes all the way back to 1512! Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Funny how something in Germany found its way around the world and the centuries required to make it possible.
Those crazy insane things people say. Most of us remember hearing it first from our parents. This week? Have you lost your marbles?
A captain goes down with his ship. Really? At one time maybe. But where does this term or phrase come from and have we abided by the rules?
I can hear my dad over and over, "Son! Shit or get off the pot!" When Dad was ready to go, he wanted his enter family to be ready on his time. Where does it come from? How has it impact us? Shit or get off the pot.
What the bubkis? It's really used and has been in our daily language since the early 19th century. How is it used and can it become outdated?
Endlessly as a child my father and grandparents used the term shit for brains. Research says it was part of their everyday street! What? How?
