Reference to the sacred love making of Cleopatra and the prince of Persia when they had a ceremonious sexual bonfire in which the Pegasus was born and learnt how to fly. Commonly used by the Gyllenhaal family when they are wondering why their youngest son Jake is tardy.
Mom... where's Jake?!?
well Maggie- remember he had improv class today?!
ugh... well fuck me and the horse I flew in on.
*in unison* that's are Jakey!!!
This is a common olden saying that was said a lot back in the olden days. I think I heard someone say this one time awhile ago. You'd rather have a horse that could walk to the water, than two horse that'll cost me more in the long run.
Man that reminds me of the saying "I’d rather a good horse that’ll walk to the river, than have to buy 2 bad horses that will ultimately cost more in the long run"
