Can you believe the fuss over Obama's use of the phrase "lipstick on a pig"?
Ooohhh...LIPSTICK. I thought he said "dipstick". I was really wondering how that worked.
No, it's just a phrase meaning you can make something bad LOOK good, but it's still gonna be bad.
Ah-hah...so it's really just a metaphor.
Yeah. Everyone knows dipsticks go in cars, not pigs.
That would explain my pig's reaction.
