twinny Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 When anything is "all but over". To me this sounds like it should mean it isn't over yet, but it really means it might as well be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackpool Jags Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 (edited) At school, and at home I was often instructed thus: "haud yer wheesht". I have spent several decades since those days, to no avail, trying to obtain some wheesht in order that I may haud it. Re GRE's post above: it happened to me once or twice, but I found no problem with the bit where the aggressor's hand was taken off my face, it was the bit where it landed on ma coupon that I found quite painful. Maybe a bit like this smiley? Edited December 6, 2012 by Blackpool Jags 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twinny Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Is it not Lemming? I'm pretty sure it is lemon. As far as I'm aware, it comes from gambling. Useless things are often called lemons in North America (heard it a few times over here) because if you get lemons in a slot machine game you lose. It could also be that both the term and the use of lemons in slot machines come from the sour taste lemons leave, suggesting they're unwanted.

Blackpool Jags Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 My old father in law - a Mancunian - often talked about being "stood there like a right lemon", meaning some clueless object of derision or pity. Quite a popular term among the older generations of Northeners in England. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
