A metaphore for saving money while physically suffering from cold, heat, hunger, pain, etc. while the end goal for saving money is not worth it.
This metaphore can also be used to describe the act of not wanting to buy a tool, gadget, etc. that would make the job significantly easier.
This metaphore cannot be applied to those that cannot afford to spend money. For example, a college student that eats a meal rejected by ethiopians just to save money for books, rent, etc.

"I don't use the AC (of the car) because it uses more gas. I could use that money to buy a coffee."
Here the person suffers from heat, just to have that small pleasure to drink a coffee.
So next time a person says anything of this sort, just say "Stop eating from under your ass".
Other examples of people that eat from under their ass:
- A person that has the possibility to go to the dentist in their own country, but chooses to suffer for months until he/she has time to go to another country for a more affordable dental care, even though this person can totally afford the dental care in his/her country.
- A person that does not want to use a heater to heat their bathroom, thus choosing to suffer from cold to save a bit on electricity, an electricity bill that they could afford to pay anyway.
- A truck driver that does not use any kind of GPS, because GPS is for pussies, thus choosing more hard ways to get to his destination. Finding his destination will require to look at physical maps, to ask people at gas stations and/or calling other people to ask for directions. All these actions may give the driver some level of stress.
- A guy that eats milk and cereal so he has money for gas to drive his 5th hand 2003 BMW M5 on the weekends, at the end week he doesn't even have money to buy a deodorant.

Get the Eating from under your ass mug.This is like the tradition “Running with the bulls”, except it involves a woman or women running from “buhls”. The buhls represent a bunch of horny dudes tryna pound some Krabby patties.
Shaqueefa: I had such a fab weekend. My boyfriend treated me to a nice Mongolian battering ram (See Mongolian Battering Ram) and even gave me a nice Cleveland Steamer. What a gentleman!!
Quontilfa: Ugh I wish I could say the same… I went running from the buhls all weekend. Even got speared a few times by their horns. Have to say it felt pretty good though.
Shaqueefa: Ima come with you next time. We can definitely outrun those buhls ;)

Get the Running from the Buhls mug.Believed to originate amongst the Welsh migrant population of Niagra Falls, Ontario, Canada. The hand-off from hell is a technique used in Rugby Union where you smash the palm of your hand into your opponents face sending them sprawling to the floor unable to stop your advance towards the try line.
In modern times it's usage is seen more often as a cheap shot in bar room brawls and was featured as a special move in 90s cult hit video game Jonah Lomu Rugby.

"Goodness me that hand-off from hell almost put him in ward 4!"
"Hope not Bill that's the maternity ward."
"Hope not Bill that's the maternity ward."
