This probably isn’t true, but like if it is, you shouldn’t have to be told to not let your dog fuck your ass. Your Dad is reacting exactly how any sane person would in that situation.
Honestly I've never actually slowed down to truly parse the phrase "screw the pooch". Well, now I have, and also fuck you because I used to be innocent 😭
Holy shit. I thought I was being witty using that idiom instead of screwed the pooch. TIL it's already a thing, moreover the origin story of screwed the pooch.
The origin doesn't include actually having sex with a dog though. "Fuck the dog" was just an expression for being lazy and "screw the pooch" simply makes it more palatable.
Whether the action was feeding, walking, or fornicating, though, all of these early examples were used to mean “to loaf around” or “to waste time” (dogs have often been associated with laziness, as in the expression “dogging it”). Later on, possibly around World War II, “fucking the dog” and its euphemistic equivalents took on a secondary meaning of “blundering.”
Not sure about it specifically, but when I was a child in England it was a british man, and when we moved back to the states it was a person with a NA accent. I later learned those to be Ringo and Carlin. Don't know about timelines, or release differences, or anything like that though.
Go back and reread unames, you probably have me confused for the original commenter, I only explained it I didn't make the OG comment. (I was third, it was omega cloud, to whom xor replied, to whom I replied with the explanation.)
This is my first time hearing about that. Many people are extremely stupid, so it makes sense some notion like that would be idiotic racist bullshit that various losers would believe.
Not really. I don't know what effect you thought posting the stereotype online in public was going to have other than to spread it. This is exactly and precisely what spreading it looks like, surely?

Apparently, it's the tamer version of "fuck the dog".

So George Carlin voiced the conductor in the US. Someone mixed in his standup with the show, and it's pretty great.

It's possible they switched to the English version at some point, but Carlin was the guy in the US version

You'll hate me too for explaining it, there's a running stereotype that white women fuck their dogs.
I didn't make it up and I don't spread such stereotypes, but that's what they meant by their above comment.
