How about 'that project's been back-burnered'. Heard that at a conference a coupla years back.
To 'blair it'; to lie when all the evidence is to the contrary, simply for the sake of maintaining your self-image of infallibility.
"To Scotsman": meaning to pass comment to bolster one's ego.
Have they got "Glesgae Screwdriver"?? Which as we on the East Coast all know is ... a hammer!
My dad says guys in my area used the term "Glesgae kiss" as far back as 1960s.
My goad! Half o these sayings are way back further than the noted dates here - this shows how street culture is rarely observed at the time of its creation.
I can remeber sitting on a school bus trip in 74 and Gogs saying ‘Look at his coupon - ye just want tae go up and stick a big Glesgae kiss own it!’
Clearly from the sixties and razor gangs if not earlier.
I remebre my first pair o trainers and it was a long time before 78.
