"Bring it up again and we'll vote on it."

Asked by omfgTALIjustIMDu (9288points) January 1st, 2008

People, generally in their early 50’s and up, keep saying this when they hear someone burp. Does anyone know where it comes from and/or how it has ANYTHING to do with burping?

Just a hunch but I’d think that it refers to the gas coming “up” from your gut. Voting on an issue that keeps coming up.

Its funny but, after explaining it, it looses it.
