The earliest ... By: DrRebus. on 27 Mar 10, 10:20:37 The earliest reference I can find to the figurative use of 'wouldn't touch with a barge-pole' is Lady Monkswell's Diary, 1893: It will be a long while before any political party touches Home Rule again with the end of a barge pole.

Hahaha, this guy ... By: DrRebus. on 27 Mar 10, 10:07:45 Hahaha, this guy seems to be obsessed by penises. I checked everywhere and no dictionary says it is euphemism for penis. It's just an another version of a British expression - Wouldn't touch with a barge-pole. Barge-pole - A large stick or thick bough. Also generally used for any large piece of wood.

the American ... By: DrRebus. on 27 Mar 10, 10:07:19 the American phrase 'I wouldn't touch that with a ten-foot pole'. This is recorded in the magazine of the U.S. Masonic community - The Official Magazine of the Grand Lodge of the United States, 1843, edited by James L Ridgely

But that mushroom ... By: DrRebus. on 27 Mar 10, 10:06:58 But that mushroom aristocracy of our country... who would not condescend to touch a poor man with a ten foot pole, were their extraction traced, in nine cases out of ten they were nurtured in the squalid huts of poverty. Ten-foot poles were, in all likelihood, barge-poles by another name. The expression came from 19th-Century England, not from a primitive tribe with phallic cult. And gorgeous comes from Old French gorgias - that means fine, elegant.... What an incompetence...

In my opinion keep ... By: ansur996. on 05 Apr 10, 04:27:14 In my opinion keep up cannot be used as a substitute for stay up. An example of this would be, I stayed up all night because of the noise.Now compare this with the sentence I was kept up all night because of the noise. See, by intuition the second sentence does not sound as good as the first.
