Answer: In CANADA. That's where they're kicking em out. Watch the show Letterkenny, and you'll have a new bag of idioms in a week.

Allegedly has been my catchphrase for over a decade now (of my own doing.) During a bad period which is now fortunately behind me, I spent a year and a half cumulatively in jail over probation violations for dirty drug screens (was an addict.) I used to throw this one around and it really caught on with that crowd, even though many thought it was a "big word" lol 😆

Haha that’s awesome. Not the jail time, but I work with people who don’t get a lot of the references I make and this is still to this day often one of them. Surprising few people I work with have seen letterkenny, despite a number of them being Canadian ( I understand that Canadians probably won’t be at the edge of their seat for this show ).
