"Too high for his nut" and "bottom fact" I've somehow heard before, but the rest of them are new to me. Now I just need to remember to use them and confuse the hell out of people haha
I've only seen "see the elephant" in Kipling, didn't know that was a secondary use.
Lost slang is interesting to think about. In the end, slang is either lost or it becomes a non-slang part of the language.
I really like waking snakes with language whenever I can. Most of the antiquated phrases I use regularly are things I picked up from my dad - phrases from the 50's and 60's. these will be great additions to my odd English repertoire.
Bottom fact is still very common...
Might I ask where you commonly hear it?
Really? I'd think it would be bottom line.
It does sound familiar, but I feel like I have heard "too high for his nut" before or maybe that's just me confusing slang with stuff I've heard at the gay bathhouse.
