Well then, Mr. Cornicopia... What about the saying "Same sh!t, Different day?"

Where did that come from?

(Thinking you may know, what with the pitchfork and all...)


Based on the SSDD (Single-Sided Double-Density) labels on the earlier versions of floppy diskettes.

@DrewDad,
Not many people know this but, the phrase originally meant suspicion about sex. Because apparently 'sex smells like fish'. So whenever "something smelled fishy", there'd be a suspicion about an affair or something else related to sex.
