| Additional Information | This is an expression of disdain, similar to “screw them.” Its origin is unknown, but it probably developed as a euphemism for more vulgar expressions. It is not particularly popular in modern conversational English, and it may have never been compared to similar expressions. However, a movie released in 1970 titled Stick it in your Ear suggests that it may have been much more common around that time. |
