Big fan of "I don't have a donkey in this fiesta"

I don’t have a piñata in this quinceañera

I don't have a dog in this race

Dog racing is somewhat common.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago

More common than horse fights for sure

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I would have felt a dog racing is actually more common than horse racing. Dogs are cheaper than horses, and don't require jockeys, so that's a cost saving right there.

Con Idea: I could get a really big dog, and enter it as a small horse.

"not my circus, not my monkey"

[–] agamemnonymous 2 points 6 days ago

I always heard it as "Not my monkeys, not my circus"

Ill jump off that bridge when I get to it.

Good, that shows you can correctly schedule tasks.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

It's a moo point.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I've never heard "dog in this fight" before; what the fuck and it's normal??

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

I've heard it a lot. Xennial from rural Ohio, USA originally

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I've heard that before, but I'm my lived experience the horse race once has been way more common. maybe it's reversed if you live somewhere that dogfighting is more common.

[–] TriflingToad 2 points 1 week ago

the horse one is wayy more common apparently considering that I've never heard the dog one

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Whenever there's a horsefight, my money is always on the horse. The guy fighting it always gets demolished.

"That's just three jockeys in a trenchcoat!"

You're the one fucking this goat; I'm just holding the horns ~ ex of mine (she might also have said bull)

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

"Alright, let's fuck this chicken"

-Friend of mine, every time he runs open mic night.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

it was goat

Clearly you aren't familiar with the Calvins Twins and their horse boxing empire

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

Ya gotta laugh

Love me some malaphors. My personal favorite is mixing "shit or get off the pot" and "if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen"

Does the pope shit in the woods

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Why you keep asking me that, holmes? I told you, I dunno. Where his Holiness does his business, is his business

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Got me giggling like mad here. I didn't know about the second one, let alone the combinations. I'll have to remember that.

"I don't have a horse in this cook-off."

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago

I don’t have a cock in this horse-off

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

"Not my circus, not my monkeys" is another pretty common one I've heard

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

You wouldn't bring a dog to a horse fight.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

I have neither a horse-sized dog, nor 100 dog-sized horses in this roller derby.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I don't have a dog in this race could refer to Greyhound races

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

I've played enough Mount & Blade to know that if you're in a fight and everyone else has horses you're probably fucked.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't have a horse in this Goatse.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

That really puts the wedding ring on Mr Hands

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

I don't have a Pope in the woods

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

I don't have a horse in this fight sounds more close to "my kingdom for a horse" than the originals though.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

I don't have a horse in this dog house, but if I did, I wouldn't look it in the mouth.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

The squeaky wheel gets the cheese.

Does the Pope shit in the woods?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

A picture is worth its weight in gold.

This really clicked for me tonight

Horse dog. Don't I?
