Nope, it wasn't your grandma commenting on your single life, it was actually an advertisement from the 1920s.

It's actually more self-explanatory than you thought.

You know there's a best man in most weddings, but why does that position exist?

Quitting something without a transition? That's going 'cold turkey.' But where does that phrase come from?

You know it means, 'getting married,' but why are we mentioning a knot?

You've said it a million times, but why do we use the phrase, "rule of thumb?"

You know we all have some sort of skeleton in the closet... but do you know why we use this phrase.

You've said it before, you've been mad when your friend says it first... but why do we say, 'riding shotgun?'

You've heard it, you've said it, you've probably tried it... but where does the phrase, "hair of the dog come from?"

Thankfully, we have discovered less gross ways to ask our friends to go home.
