Dead to rights.

Anyone know the origin of this?

The cat's got your tongue.


I'm guessing this has to do with the quiet stealthiness of cats?

I think it has to do with when the cat was in at night stealing your soul, it took your voice for good measure.

I heard a good one last night ... not a weird saying per se, but I'd never heard it put quite this way before.

Wolf: So, do you have an address?

Homeless Heroin Addict: I use my parents' address for mail and stuff, but I'm living in an abandominium in North Philly.

I'll be jiggered up a hemlock.

WTFK?

A friend from New Hampshire says this. On the other hand he also says with a leer

"Hey sunshine, ever been boned up the shitter?"

Then he cackles with laughter.

Other than that, he's totally normal.

Sounds like a guy from Maine I went to college with.... he'd threaten to "SKULL fuck yeh!!" for even the most minor infraction.... and then the cackling laughter...

That is a southern expression for feeling wrung out. Chitterlings or more properly chittlins' are hog intestines that are boiled or fried and served with rice. To make sure they are clean before cooking you squeeze them top to bottom like a tube of tooth paste then (if your making them in the yard as is proper) sling them to get everything else out before you cut them up.

Smells like a charrnel house when cooking but not a bad meal.

How...... different(?!)

Reminds me of the local French sausage called an andouillette (please don't look at the link if you are about to have, are having, or just have had your Thanksgiving dinner - it wouldn't be fair to the person who has slaved over cooking it for you!), that I unfortunately ordered in a logis outside Poitiers. Looked great but was basically the roughly chopped intestines of a pig and not much else. Produced one of those chewing moments that sometimes arise when eating meat - you know, the ones that never seem to end because the item in your mouth never seems to get to the right size that you fancy attempting to swallow it.

I've tried "chittlins"... They wouldn't be too bad if you didn't have to smell them cooking. Most housewives forbid cooking them indoors. When cooking outdoors you can smell them for a half mile. I guess "once you get past the smell you got it licked" which would be another weird saying.
