cut a fat hog in the ass

Etymology: Contrary to popular belief, it has nothing to do with vehicles.
The term originated in the Ozarks, and originally derived from when a man would slaughter a hog and discover a (surprisingly) thick layer of fat (or lard) between the meat and skin, which would then be able to be rendered off and used in cooking throughout the coming year.
When a person was to have something that comes into their favor they were to say that “they cut a fat hog in the ass”.

Common definitions:
1. To have a monetary gain.
2. To have something beneficial occur in their favor.
3. To have a raucous time.

1. I sure cut a fat hog in the ass when I bet on that 30-1 horse and won!
2. I can't believe that Whitney agreed to go out with me, I sure cut a fat hog in the ass this time!
3. I feel like crap today, but man did we cut a fat hog in the ass last night!

Cut a fat hog in the ass

def: to try to take an easier path to a goal with predictably unfortunate consequences.

The idiot tried to cut a fat hog in the ass when he drove through that parking lot to avoid the signal and ran right into the side of a car backing out of a spot.
