If you enjoy rolling on the floor, snorting liquid out of your nose laughing, and aren’t offended by swear words, you’ll enjoy this blog post by author Christopher Moore. In it, he describes the origins of particular phrases, including one that translates to “screwing the pooch.” The post starts out on a fairly serious note, but hang in there, Moore’s zany humor wil appear. (I’ll be waiting for Hubby’s laughter on this one.)
Screwing the Pooch
10 Wednesday Dec 2008
I loved that post! I’ve now added another blog to my Google Reader.
I love the origins of sayings. I have a good friend who is from Hungary and I’m always having to explain phrases like this to her. I remember explaining the “drank the Kool-Aid” phrase to her. She was horrified!
Hubby laughed his F$%^in’ A$$ off! (after he schtupped the schnauzer, of course).
Hey, Rox, I enjoy learning about the origins of sayings, too. Moore does a great job of writing about stuff in such a wacky fashion.
Hubby, you make ME laugh my F$%^in’ A$$ off! That’s one of the many reasons I love you.
