My dad, bless his soul, used the phrase "You talk like a sausage!" when he wanted to indicate that he thought what you said was stupid. Coincidentally, my husband's father used the same phrase. My husband and I grew up in the Chicago area 50 miles apart and didn't meet until college. Neither of us has been able to figure out the context or derivation of this picturesque comment. Our best guess is that it relates to the unidentifiable hash of ingredients that go into making a sausage. Has anyone else out there heard the expression?
"You talk like a sausage!" comes to mind so often when I read the news. Take the poll to determine the week's most stupid comments. Or suggest other idiocies you have noticed.
