Not sure what the Snickers reference is saying.  Maybe they use an image that gives a different meaning.\n\nUsually it means falsifying accounting records.  Hope that helps.   : )

This mainly British colloquial expression is recorded only from the 1960s, but is certainly older. Its origin is uncertain. Some argue it may be from cods, an old term for the testicles that derives from the Anglo-Saxon sense of cod, a bag. It is also suggested that wallop may be connected with the dialect term meaning to chatter or scold (not with the word meaning a heavy blow).\nOne explanation has it that it refers to the late Hiram Codd, who—despite his archetypally American first name—was British, born in Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk in 1838. He spent his life working in the soft drinks business. In the 1870s, he designed and patented a method of sealing a glass bottle by means of a ball in its neck, which the pressure of the gas in the fizzy drink forced against a rubber washer. Making the bottle was a technical challenge, since the ball necessarily had to be larger than the diameter of the neck. It was only in 1876, when he teamed up with a Yorkshire glass blower named Ben Rylands, that the answer was found. The Codd bottle was an immediate success; surviving examples are now highly collectable. You opened them by pushing the ball into the neck, and openers in the shape of short, thin cylinders were supplied for the purpose. One unexpected problem was that children smashed the bottles to use the glass balls as marbles.\nThe suggestion is that drinkers who preferred their tipple to have alcohol in it were dismissive of Mr Codd’s soft drinks. As beer was often called wallop, they referred sneeringly to the fizzy drink as Codd’s wallop, and the resulting word later spread its meaning to refer to anything considered to be rubbish.\nThis story reeks of the approach to word history called folk etymology. As one writer has put it, it seems rather too neat an explanation to be true. But nobody’s come up with anything better.

the actual quote is "you can't eat your cake and have it too." It came from the french revolution .."let them eat cake.." it is one of the most incorrectly quoted quotes. If you think about it you can have your cake and eat it too but you can't eat your cake and have it too.

Kudos (IPA: ['kju:dɒs], from the Greek κύδος kydos, literally "that which is heard of") means fame and renown resulting from an act or achievement; by extension is often used as a praising remark. It entered English as British university slang in the early 1800s. Frequently used by Time magazine, it came to America in the 1920s and 1930s.\n\nEighty-six: "Do not sell to that customer" or "The kitchen is out of the item ordered. To remove an item from an order or from the menu." Article 86 of the New York State Liquor Code defines the circumstances in which a bar patron should be refused alcohol or '86ed'. The Soup Kitchen Theory: during the depression of the 1930s, soup kitchens would often make just enough soup for 85 people. If you were next in line after number 85, you were '86ed'. The Eight Feet By Six Feet Theory: A coffin is usually eight feet long and is buried six feet under. Once in your coffin you've been 'eight by sixed', which shortens to '86ed'.

I don't know if there's much etymology of the phrase, but here's an article about it which puts forth some interesting possibilities of the origin.\n\nQuote from the site:\n\n"Some linguists and historians think the expression must have been well known during the war years, citing a story about General Eisenhower's dog. The story goes that the dog (Felix) urinated on a map and the officers joked that the enemy was "pissed off." (Leonard Mosely, Marshall, 1982)."

I've used that expression with friends before as a joke. It's a silly over-doing-it way of saying that you're great.\n\nA friend of mine who's female brought me a soda one day without me asking (long story but it was super hot that day and we were working outdoors) and I said, "Oh my god, marry me!" We had a good chuckle about it but that's all. Likewise another time I got a backrub from a female friend and I was enjoying it so much I said, "Will you have my children?" \n\nIf he said it was a joke, it probably was. He just thinks you're really cool. he may even think you're hot, but he's still probably joking.

There's a passage of Scripture that speaks of how "A LITTLE wine is good for the infirmities of the stomach", and the Bible speaks openly of it's SYMBOLISM involving purity. Therefore, I would say, don't drink it in excess, for being drunk displeases God and damages the Temple (us) in which He wants to dwell.

its an expression that canbe used to represne tmany mistakes. like forgetting what you were just talking about when a converstaion is interrupted. Or it could be when you forget what you were just watching, or forgetting the simplist of things. All these mistakes happen all the time, depending on how stupid it was is how big of a fart it was.
