Pronounced Bate-the-wife. Irish slang for Bulmers cider. The name refers to the Irish urban legend that lads would go to the pub, get lashed off Bulmers and go home and kick the shit out of their wives. This was a severe image problem for bulmers in it’s infancy

When you masturbate repeatedly to pictures of the same woman, whether on Facebook or elsewhere, you have a beat off wife.

When it's pouring rain but oddly enough the sun is still shining brightly, it is said 'The Devil Is Beating His Wife'

Saying used (especially in the southern US) when the sun is shining yet it's raining. I've been told that in Scandinavian countries they say "There's a marriage in Hades" for this, and in South America they say "The devil and his wife are dancing." (Since all version relate to the devil and his spouse, there's probably some older story that all these sayings derive from.)
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain, coming down on a sunny day? Yes, the devil is beating his wife. (Heh, CCR reference too.)

Adam: Look Jane! It's raining and there's sun at the same time.
Jane: The devil is beating his wife, adam.
Adam: Silly bastard!
Jane: The devil is beating his wife, adam.
