| 1. | Took a dixie | ||
|
Meaning, a lapse, cognitive dissidence, a boycott, negligence, a vacation/holiday, a siesta, laziness, idleness. Can imply both a purposeful or unintentional commission or omission. I heard Chris Matthews on MSNBC use this term on February 25, 2009. I don't have a quote but he used it in this fashion:
"They took a dixie on that one." Another example: "They did a good job on the paint but took a dixie on the suspension." |
