pardon me.
what the hell is elbow grease?
i've been reading so much about it and i do not have the slightest clue what it is. i believe its readily available but from where i am, there's nothing in the market called elbow grease!
quot;Elbow greasequot; refers specifically to sweat, but is used as a general reference to the physical effort required to create that sweat.
As far as I know, quot;elbow greasequot; is an American term used to explain effort and determination.
According to dictionary.com:elbow grease
Strenuous physical effort, as in You'll have to use some elbow grease to get the house painted in time. This term alludes to vigorous use of one's arm in cleaning, polishing, or the like. It soon was extended to any kind of hard work, and Anthony Trollope used it still more figuratively (Thackeray, 1874): quot;Forethought is the elbow-grease which a novelist ... requires.quot; [First half of 1600s]
so that is what its all about!
f**k me! no wonder i can't seem to find 'elbow grease' for sale! :fing25:
lol!
I usually keep my elbow grease stored in jar, preferably in a cool place, like a refrigerator. Sometimes I find that my jar of elbow grease won't do the trick. In those cases, I usually open a can of whoop-ass to get the job done right.
