Cellar Glossary

Thought of a new word, or heard one somewhere that made you sit up and take note? Put it here and we can all start using it until it becomes passe and then all the way back to cool again. Or maybe you've discovered a new way to use a word, dressing up a tired old word with a shiny new definition? Share your wordcraft here and win the admiration of your peers.

Words - they're what the cool kids are into.

We must include old standards, unique to these climes, to be a true Cellar Glossary, and useful to future linguistic archeologists saying, "The fuck is that?". :cool:

So, how does a racist say 'piss'?

:p:

Where did piss like a racist come from? Was that a story from Case or Kerosene?

For a while we had a list of mixed/confused metaphors that we used to admire, was that on the list?

I think some made it into the cookie file

"Nobody has been able to ridicule my argument with bullets."

"He made out like a Band-Aid"

You can go pound salt

Calmity - noun - calmness in the face of calamity

oh yes. Then I read "pee/piss like a racehorse" in a book fairly recently and had a lightbulb moment, because I'd never heard the phrase before that so it just never occurred to me that it was a butchery/improvement of something well known.

http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2015/07/origin-expression-piss-like-racehorse/

but now when I'm desperate I always at least think "I need to pee like a racist" and it's all your fault.

You're welcome

:) I'll return the favor some day

I was gonna say, b4 reading at the link, that the phrase is often frilled with 'like a Russian racehorse'.
