The wrong end of the dog.

The wrong end of the dog to have gotten.

To have completely misunderstood something. The meaning is identical to the more common idiomatic phrase 'The wrong end of the stick.'

The origin of this phrase may be an answer from the Australian edition of The Weakest Link which featured in the satirical magazine Private Eye.

Chair (Cornelia Frances) - "When you have misunderstood something you can be said to have gotten the wrong end of the ... ?"

Contestant - "Dog?"

If he thinks that a jump in oil prices means an end to the recession then he has gotten hold of the wrong end of the dog.

I was wrong

the use of the phrase is a reference to the taped phone conversation of 50 Cent and Young Buck (When Buck was crying, he stated "I was wrong and confused" about the issue they were having)

Its used in a similar way as saying "cold-blooded" while making fun of your peers...

or

its used as another way to say
"I fucked up"

Example: Somebody crashes Their car into another driver

Person 1: What the fuck were u thinking - were u paying attention to road?

Person 2: (sniffling) I was wrong..

Person 1: That still doesn't solve the problem dumbass..
