Get bat

To "give bat" is to firmly resist someone's romantic advances. It use is occasionally also extended to more general cases of being turned down.

It is a South African slang term, that probably first appeared in 1990s. It most likely has its origins in cricket - the metaphor being one of a bowler attempting to bowl a batsman out by bowling at the stumps, only to have to have the batsman play a non-scoring, blocking shot by placing his bat solidly in the balls trajectory.

I tried to kiss her at the party, but she gave me bat.

get the dog into the bathtub

You're screwing a girl in the ass. You try to get your nuts up in there as well. It's about as tough as trying to get the dog into the bathtub.

If you have a tuna can, it really is impossible to get the dog into the bathtub.

Toe Rag

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.

1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.
