you know how well your friends know you

...when they hear phrases describing excretory functions & send them to you via e-mail.

"drop the kids off at the pool"
British Slang; Verb phrase. Euphemism for defecation.

used in a sentence: "I cant even think about eating breakfast until I've had a cigarette and dropped the kids off at the pool."

thanks, M, for hearing this phrase & thinking of me. i'm touched. i'll find a way to work this into a conversation at work tomorrow.

That is a little better than the version a past friend used to use:

"I am going to drop the Cosby kids off at the pool."

The pinch bit comes from another Brit expression: "Pinch a loaf."
