What's a smokehouse? And what does the saying mean, exactly?

smokehouse is a wooden shack you smoke meat in, he was talking about the current religious right

They will steal your bacon?

― Beth Parker (Beth Parker), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 01:25 (twenty years ago)

― _, Tuesday, 18 October 2005 01:26 (twenty years ago)

Eating stolen bacon makes you pray louder?

gramps used to say: don't eat all that fruit nana put out. she's trying to give you the farts

also, my dad claims when he was twelve, gramps told him to come here and give him a hug. he then proceeded to put a cigarette out on his back and said "never trust anyone"

Mine says "It's always 5 o'clock somewhere."

After my paternal grandfather's strokes, he only could only say a couple of things: "jesus christ!" and "i love you". Somehow in my mother's mind this was never considered taking-the-lord's-name-in-vain, probably because she loved that old salt.

If the religious right come to the fore, we need to lock our smokehouses. Because they will still our bacon. Right, thanks.

― moley (moley), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 02:26 (twenty years ago)

I must admit it has me a bit puzzled as well, moley. But thats ok, we can be excused, we're merely dumb skips ;)

― Trayce (trayce), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 02:38 (twenty years ago)

They'll smoke our bacon? Perhaps that's the threat? Like, smoke your bacon as in cook your goose?

I can never see the name of that movie without hearing/seeing Lee Marvin on the simpsons singing "gunner paint yer wagon, gunner paint it goooood"

― Trayce (trayce), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 02:55 (twenty years ago)

xpost - i was in a movie called bacon wagon

― Mad SETI (jaxon), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 02:57 (twenty years ago)

a USC First Look film, no less.

Bacon Wagon.

― Munki (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 03:08 (twenty years ago)

Bacon Wagon looks very State-esque.

― Hurting (Hurting), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 04:42 (twenty years ago)

i never actually saw the film. my best friend and his sister produced it.

also funny (well, for me at least). i had a girlfriend (that's now my wife). we were on and off for about a year. i dated another girl that looked just like her. they both were also extras with me on the shoot. various people at the movie said "hi, nice to see you again" to the fake-wife girl even though they'd never met her

― Mad SETI (jaxon), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 05:19 (twenty years ago)

wouldn't you go home and lock yourself in the house, if you're worried about religious fanatics? why trouble yourself over the smokehouse? you could just bring the bacon inside, right?

― gear (gear), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 05:32 (twenty years ago)

Maybe it's because if someone gets up and prays loudly in church it means they're not Jewish so they might eat your bacon.

― Hurting (Hurting), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 05:34 (twenty years ago)

Bacon gives you the strength to TESTIFY!

― walter kranz (walterkranz), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 05:39 (twenty years ago)

Why not lock up the pigpen, then? What're they gonna smoke if they don't have any meat?

― the pr00de abides (pr00de), Tuesday, 18 October 2005 05:50 (twenty years ago)

I'm trying to remember if even the great Gordon Solie ever said anything this folksy...

wait, let's start this thread over and try again.
