View more comments #15 Chew the fat. Meaning to have a lengthy conversation. Report Final score: 9points Harrison Miller POST HammerzToe HammerzToe Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago "Chew the fat" is attributed to the Inuit people by many. During the earliest years of the Inuit peoples every member of the tribe had a job or jobs. When you got too old, arthritic or injured to do any jobs that required agility, strength and/or speed then you were relegated to chewing the hides of the animals killed for their meat and furs in order to make them soft and pliable. There is no proof that the term was first used by the Inuit people and it has come to mean having a lengthy conversation, gabbing, yakking also. Interesting to see the progression of idioms, colloquialisms and sayings. 3 3points reply #16 "The wise mongoose never follows the snake into it's hole" -Riki Tiki Tavi. Because the snake knows all the twists and turns. but the mongoose goes in blind.
I say this a lot when we watch action movies, and the heroes inevitably get blindsided because the bad guys know where the blind corners are.

One night when I was just old enough to understand this, in the morning I did not yell for them from my crib. I just quietly played.

View more comments #15 Chew the fat. Meaning to have a lengthy conversation. Report Final score: 9points Harrison Miller POST HammerzToe HammerzToe Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago "Chew the fat" is attributed to the Inuit people by many. During the earliest years of the Inuit peoples every member of the tribe had a job or jobs. When you got too old, arthritic or injured to do any jobs that required agility, strength and/or speed then you were relegated to chewing the hides of the animals killed for their meat and furs in order to make them soft and pliable. There is no proof that the term was first used by the Inuit people and it has come to mean having a lengthy conversation, gabbing, yakking also. Interesting to see the progression of idioms, colloquialisms and sayings. 3 3points reply #16 "The wise mongoose never follows the snake into it's hole" -Riki Tiki Tavi.
