It's what you get beat like when your in he middle of a slobberknocker, and if you don't have the guts to stick around you might run like a scalded dog with a case of the limber tail.
I have to to tell you that was one hell of a slobberknocker and Jaired got beat like a fuckin government mule.
Jobber in the old Mid-South territory and nephew of the Junkyard Dog. Stole Jim Ross’s then-girlfriend, resulting in Ross getting revenge by trolling him on air every night by bringing up his pitiful win/loss record.
Reference to back in the mid to late 1800s, where freed black slaves were given 40 acres of land and one mule. Hardly a fair trade, but none the less, a fact. However, the term has been adopted to describe how tough a person is, particularly made famous by Jim Ross and the WWF/WWE.
"Ol' Stone Cold is tougher than a government mule! Hes stompin' a mudhole in his ass and walking it dry!"
A stinming bureaucrat like a cop or politician that sits on their thrown or position of power for a steady paycheck despite the fact that their core values no longer align with the popular majority, but they continue to serve a master they fundamentally disagree with and end up arresting good people they were sworn to protect, but are forced to turn against. They want quit because they don't want to look for another job or are willing to accept pay from dirty political affiliations and call it earned income.
Look at ole Jake, he's been on the force for almost 30 years and served under about a dozen mayors, but now he is arresting his best friends because the new socialist mayor wants to crackdown on regular tax paying republicans who like to flex their new sports cars on the weekend. Anyone doing a burnout goes straight to jail. Jake has evolved into a government mule, don't invite him to poker night no more. He's no longer one of us.
