Ruminations and People's Odd Sayings - 12/22/2010
“I shit you not.”
First of all, in order to accomplish the above, one way or the other - meaning “I shit you” or “I shit you not”, I'm assuming I would have to have been consumed by you, meaning eaten - bitten into smaller pieces, chewed and swallowed. Maybe I'm just out of step with the popular trends, but this doesn't sound like much fun to me. Next comes a bath of caustic digestive stomach acids, before the reward of a possibly fun flume ride of 20 feet of intestines. Going back to the saying itself, if I cannot avoid beginning the process totally, from that first bite....my choice would certainly to BE 'shitted”. Think about it. You'd rather just stay in someone's lower intestines forever? At least if I were (cough cough) “shitted”, I could help create a tree or something.
Who comes UP with these sayings?
( And you're wondering... Who ruminates on these sayings? )
