So yesterday at work, I won use of the GBS Reserved Parking Spot. It's a parking spot in the parking lot right near the door. Normally I park across the street. I get to park there for a week.

That started today.

Sure wish I would have remembered it this morning.

Creepy and wrong.
I don't know, pd. Because I'm totally mystified as to what he means by it. I mean, I'm familiar with the term, I'm just not sure the tits-up I know is the tits-up Americans know. You know?

We don't say 'tits up'. This is the first time I've ever heard it.

We say 'belly up' when a ship sinks or something goes wrong in plans/lives. Things go 'belly up'. Lol.

I think that's why Vince treasured your post so much :D Heheheee...

That's the meaning of tits-up I'm familiar with. I'm just not sure where the tits came from.

Just because you don't doesn't mean the rest of America doesn't.

You aren't exactly representative of the whole.

And I believe the expression translates the same in both cultures. Vince just took it in another direction all on his own.

:D

Ohhhhh. I forgot all about everything that happened before I got the mental image of you wagging about like a rag doll while I shook my fist.

That was quite the thought-stopping mental image.

In that my brain recoiled and tried to turn off to protect itself.

:D
