[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 117785, member: 27"] People toss that insult around so much that I don't think they even realize they're not really insulting the person, so much as insulting [I]the mother[/I] of the person. When I hear people say this phrase, my old-fashioned mind immediately goes to the mother. "Do you even [I]know[/I] this person's mother? Their mother is actually a very nice person..." It's especially odd to hear SOB tossed at JR by Bobby, since the mother in question is Bobby's mother, as well. I guess it's a phrase that has lost its original meaning, or at least doesn't have the original intent any more. And Val never had a bad thing to say about Miss Ellie before....[/ponders] [/QUOTE]
