An excuse given when running late to work, wedding, party, etc. Instead of trying to make up something, you just say you hit a cat, that is why you're late. Hitting a cat wouldn't impact anything, in terms of time, so it's not an excuse, but more or less done to add amusement to the tardiness and delfect any heat you would get otherwise.
Text Message: Can we move our meeting till later in the day, I hit a cat on the way there.
Your boss: Lol, I was about to fire you, but this is clever, I'm going to reuse this.

Get the by the way mug.When you are having an argument and you see your logic begin to fail, you can use this phrase to automatically win. This of course only works if the reference is understood.
The phrase originates from a conversation that occured directly after a speech which described how the earth revolves around the sun.
At the end of the speech an elderly lady stood up and said,
"What you have told us is rubbish. The world is really a flat plate supported on the back of a giant tortoise."
The scientist then smugly asked,
"What is the tortoise standing on?"
"You're very clever, young man, very clever", said the old lady. "But it's turtles all the way down!"
This anecdote was made "popular" by Stephen Hawking, who told it at the begining of his book "A Brief History of Time."
