One man's meat, another man's gravy.

A nice twist on one mans meat, another man's poison. Where neither option is that bad. Invites thought , laughter and useful for pub banter.

Originated in the pubs of South London in the 1940s.

"But which is better? Meat or gravy?"
"Exactly."

Unhip one

Derived in the late thirties; early forties. Serious jazz lovers. The times to define the difference between the cool and the uncool. When snapping fingers took the place of applause. Unhip gave a flavor like the term "little grass hopper"; a student.
When someone tries to compare Miles Davis and Louis Armstrong as the same horn ...
Not only will a serious lesson follow but towards the end, an underscathing tone of "unhip one".
