  • Put your money where your mouth is! What the hell does this mean?!? :roll:

    Wish you were here...

  • Put your money where your mouth is! What the hell does this mean?!? :roll:
    It's cousin to the old adage,
    'Your mouth is writing cheques your butt can't cash.'
    Basically, it means someone has been talking smack,
    maybe bragging on themselves.
    They talk a lot, which costs nothing,
    but are afraid to place an actual money bet where
    they could lose.

    When you tell someone to 'put their money
    where their mouth is',
    you're asking them to prove their words with actions.

    Cheers.

  • Pipe Dream...... please explain how that got started and what it is supposed to mean
    Think caterpillar in 'Alice in Wonderland'.

    A pipe dream is a reference to a hallucination
    experienced through use of an opium pipe,
    though nowadays it just refers to something
    unrealistic.
    Anyone who's ever had a conversation with
    stoners can attest to the irrationality of pipe dreams...
    "One day man, I'm gonna fill my whole swimming pool
    with Chunky Monkey + just... y'know..."

    Cheers.

    "For Pete's Sake"

    who the hell is 'Pete'? We know of 'christ' 'god' and 'jesus'...who is 'Pete'?

    and 'Jimmy-rig'...who is Jimmy? Pete's brother?
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

  • If your aunt had balls she'd be your uncle.

    'Pete' is
    St. Peter,
    Heaven's bouncer.
    The phrase is used as a warning that
    whatever you are about to do might
    screw up your chances of being let into Heaven
    by St. Peter when your time comes.
    "For Pete's sake,
    don't kick that puppy!"

    Cheers.

    "I could care less."

    IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE PEOPLE. But most of you probably couldn't care less. :P

    "And When he gets to heaven,
    To Saint Peter he will tell;
    One more Marine reporting, sir.
    I've served my time in Hell!"
