Well, Kalkor, you're the only response, so I guess no one else has either heard
the phrase or cares.
Anyway, thanks for responding, and here's ALL I know about its origin.
When I was growing up, my very long-time childhood best friend said it on
occasion. Finally, curiousity got me and ask him its meaning even though I
never needed it to laugh at it.
His father, who was a carny (carnival barker), said it on occasion. When my
friend ask his dad, he replied: "Oh, you've seen those nature documentary film
things at school where some four-legged male mammal like a lion or gazelle is
trying to finish off a piece of ass while the impatient female is running
across the savannah. Well, there you go"!!
I guess it kinda means: "Well, hell, I've done everything I'm supposed to and
I'm minding my own business and I'm even RUNNING and I'm still getting
FUCKED!!!!"
Good-day to ya, Kalkor!!! Enjoyed the exchange.
