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

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I don’t have a piñata in this quinceañera

[–] Mrkawfee@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I don't have a militia in this civil war

I don't have a dog in this race

Dog racing is somewhat common.

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 16 points 2 months ago

More common than horse fights for sure

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 3 points 2 months 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@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

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

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 25 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Ill jump off that bridge when I get to it.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 4 points 2 months ago

It's a moo point.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 4 points 2 months ago

Good, that shows you can correctly schedule tasks.

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago (2 children)

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

[–] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 9 points 2 months ago

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

[–] thedirtyknapkin@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months 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@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

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

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago

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

[–] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 11 points 2 months ago (2 children)

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

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

"Alright, let's fuck this chicken"

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

[–] LapGoat@pawb.social 8 points 2 months ago

it was goat

[–] makeshiftreaper@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] 4_degrees@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Ya gotta laugh

[–] ggppjj@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (2 children)

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"

[–] nooneescapesthelaw@mander.xyz 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Does the pope shit in the woods

[–] gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

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

[–] luciferofastora@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months 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.

[–] sundrei@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 2 months ago

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

[–] whotookkarl@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

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

[–] veganpizza69@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] jia_tan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 months ago

I don’t have a cock in this horse-off

[–] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

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

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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

[–] Slovene 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I don't have a horse in this Goatse.

[–] synae@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 2 months ago

That really puts the wedding ring on Mr Hands

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 4 points 2 months 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.

[–] socsa@piefed.social 3 points 2 months ago

I don't have a Pope in the woods

[–] sp3tr4l@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 months ago

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

[–] SLVRDRGN@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

A picture is worth its weight in gold.

[–] Philharmonic3@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

The squeaky wheel gets the cheese.

Does the Pope shit in the woods?

[–] HK65@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 months ago

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

[–] barkingspiders@infosec.pub 1 points 2 months ago

This really clicked for me tonight

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Horse dog. Don't I?
