I love plays on words, especially in American English. Anyhow, this is the English language gem that came up in my Facebook feed this morning.
"Toilet stolen from police station. Cops have nothing to go on."
Hehehehe. Have a great Monday, everyone. :)
There was a hole blown in the parking lot this morning. The cops are lookin' into it.
Shawn, oh thank you for the explaination; it's a good one indeed :)
Hahahaha. Good one, Spangola. :) Too funny.
Elias... The verb "to have something to go on" means to have evidence to start searching for the criminal with. In other words, to have a lead. The word "to go" also means to go to the bathroom so this sounds like the police have nothing, not even a toilet now, to sit on / go to the bathroom on. Hahahaha. :)
I don't get it
