Never heard of it. New York region my whole life.
I’ve heard “pitched a bitch” many times before, used to mean “had a hissy fit.” Never “flipped a bitch” before, though.
Curse you Loshan, that would have been totally funny if you hadn’t corrected the spelling.
I’d first think you’d performed acrobatics with a female dog. Then I’d pause and wonder if you’d shown the digitus impudicus to a woman you disliked.
Never heard of the U-turn thingy. That to me would be hanging a u-ey.
Never heard of it.
That’s what we do a bit up north, too.
I would have assumed that you had displayed your middle finger to an unsociable woman. A misinterpretation in which I am apparently not alone.
I’d think you were making an all-black remake of Glengarry Glen Ross.
Never heard of it. I might be able to work out what it means, if given some context. Without context, I’d think it meant a cat fight.
Just looked at the spoiler and would never have thought of that meaning.
We chuck u-eys where I live.
Never heard the phrase. I grew up in San Diego and came of driving age in San Jose.
Never heard it. Raised in Maryland, 23 years old. A lot of possibilities entered my mind when reading the phrase but anything having to do with driving a vehicle or U-turns wasn’t even on the radar. I have heard “make/hang a u-ie” but say “make a U-turn.”
Growing up in Southern California, I remember using this phrase back in the eighties.
“Dude, you missed the turn. Flip a bitch; the turn will be on the left.”
Grew up in the Chicago area, have always known it to mean doing a u-ey. U-E. Youey? How the hell would you spell that, hrm…
This. And I got into a discussion with co-workers yesterday about doing cookies. I use cookies interchangeably with doughnuts, but they thought I was bs’ing them about the doughnut part; they’d never heard of it.
I would think you’re talking about Clone High.
I grew up in central Ohio and have been in Southern CA since 2004, I’ve never heard that phrase that I can recall.
“Is Wayne Brady gonna have to flip a bitch?”
Never heard of it.
My guess was that the OP’s stepmom got into a lot of fights. Or dabbled in lesbian recruitment.
I have heard of it, and use it. I got it by osmosis from my Michigan born and bred exhusband, although he may have picked it up from his time in the Army driving ambulances.
I am doing my best to introduce it to Australia, where the local terminology is, as Cunctator indicates, to ‘chuck a u-ey’.
If the said bitch to be flipped involves pulling into someone’s driveway to complete the u-turn, it’s referred to as a 'Hi honey, I’m home!".
