In the fuck up usage it comes from a very old joke. Man comes home from the bar and he's blind drunk. How drunk was he? He was so drunk he shot his wife and screwed the pooch. ba dum tsh
The other one... honestly no idea and I think it speaks unfavorably of the culture that produced it (although let's be real, all of the anglo nations infighting in this thread belong at the bottom of the sea)
yeah mate, that's totally different
the context matters though. in the American version it refers to a disastrous fuck up. the Commonwealth version is just like a Saturday afternoon
It's weird in both usages
Sure but at least the American one implies that fucking a dog is a bad thing that one should not do

I wonder how is it was first used. No judgement from me, phrases can be weird in Hindi and Marathi as well.
the only people i've heard say that are americans
is it the aussies?
apparently the "doin' nothin' in particular" version is the canucks :kkkanada:
huh, weird
