It's like " go take a long walk on a short pier". It would be very hard to piss up a rope. It's also like telling someone to "fuck off" or "go get lost". A widely used term in the 50's and 60's by men who worked in factories together for extended periods of time.
Shakey was so mad at Ralph that he told him to "go piss up a rope". Ralph was so stupid that he actually obtained a large piece of rope and proceeded to urinate on it while it was held in a vertical position.
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
Term used to describe someone who is a mix of both rural (country) and urban (metropolitan) lifestyles/upbringings. He/she is typically equally comfortable in both settings and is able to seamlessly slip back and forth between the two, appreciating the characteristics of each.
That ol' gal of mine drives the 12lane freeway during the week and a John Deere on the weekends. She likes opra and the Grand Ol' Opry. I love them countrypolitan women.
