Horror Movies I would love to get a Ice Nine Kills song

Ringu (Sadako my beloved)

Frankenstein (there’s some good lyric potential here)

House of Wax (same as Frankenstein)

Poltergeist (this is entirely because it was the first horror movie I ever saw)

NOPE (it’s a good movie man)

In the house that Jack Built (I haven’t seen this one but it’s named after a nursery song so like. Funny base for a metal song)

Midsommar (more good lyric basing)

Black Christmas (it won’t since they already did a Christmas horror but I can dream)

And most of all…

FINAL DESTINATION (god this franchise would lend itself SO WELL to a Ice Nine Kills song, this would slap, tell me I’m wrong)

I’ve been mentally struggling really bad these past few weeks and my therapist recommended I get medicated so I called someone and they didn’t answer and haven’t called me back yet. so when I told my therapist about it this morning (mid another breakdown) she was like “well if they don’t call back by x date then call back again and again until they answer so you can be treated” like damn am I tripping that bad 🧍🏽‍♀️

A small point of clarification, the phrase "the whole nine yards" is generally thought a reference to yards of fabric, as fabric is measured in yards. If someone was using nine yards of fabric for an item of clothing (and often, that would be the entire bolt of that fabric), that meant the garment they were making was very expensive and extravagant. Thus, the phrase "the whole nine yards" and the derivative phrase "[dressed] to the nines" meant you're using everything, going all the way.

dead metaphors are really interesting honestly and specifically i’m interested in when they become malapropisms

like, the concept being, people are familiar with the phrase and what people use it to mean metaphorically, but it’s not common knowledge anymore what the metaphor was in literal reference to. people still say “toe the line” but don’t necessarily conjure up the image of people standing at the starting line of a race, forbidden from crossing over it. people still say “the cat is out of the bag” without necessarily knowing it’s a sailors’ expression referring to a whip being brought out for punishment. some metaphors are so dead we don’t even know where they come from; like, there are ideas about what “by hook or by crook” references, but no one is entirely sure. nobody knows what the whole nine yards are.

and then you throw in a malaprop or a mondegreen or two, where because people don’t know what the actual words of the expression refer to, they’re liable to replace them with similar sounding words (see “lack toast and tolerant”). so we can literally go from a phrase referencing a common, everyday part of life to a set of unfixed, contextless sounds with a completely different meaning. that’s fascinating. what an interesting piece of the way language and culture are living, changing, coevolving things.

maybe part of the reason we can’t figure out where some phrases come from is that over time the words themselves have changed! one of the theories about “the whole nine yards” is that it’s a variant of “the whole ball of wax,” which some people further theorize was originally “the whole bailiwick,” meaning just “the whole area”! the addition of “nine yards” might be related to “dressed to the nines,” which might reference the fucking Greek muses! language is so weird and cool! (and I only know any idioms in two languages!)

the point is. I just came across the words “nip it in the butt” in a piece of published, professional fiction, and now I can’t stop giggling.
