Big fan of “I don’t have a donkey in this fiesta”
I don’t have a piñata in this quinceañera
I don’t have a militia in this civil war
I don’t have a dog in this race
Dog racing is somewhat common.
I would have felt a dog racing is actually more common than horse racing. Dogs are cheaper than horses, and don’t require jockeys, so that’s a cost saving right there.
Con Idea: I could get a really big dog, and enter it as a small horse.
Clearly you aren’t familiar with the Calvins Twins and their horse boxing empire
Ya gotta laugh
I’ve never heard “dog in this fight” before; what the fuck and it’s normal??
I’ve heard that before, but I’m my lived experience the horse race once has been way more common. maybe it’s reversed if you live somewhere that dogfighting is more common.
I have neither a horse-sized dog, nor 100 dog-sized horses in this roller derby.
Whenever there’s a horsefight, my money is always on the horse. The guy fighting it always gets demolished.
“That’s just three jockeys in a trenchcoat!”
“Not my circus, not my monkeys” is another pretty common one I’ve heard
Love me some malaphors. My personal favorite is mixing “shit or get off the pot” and “if you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen”
I’ve played enough Mount & Blade to know that if you’re in a fight and everyone else has horses you’re probably fucked.
“I don’t have a horse in this cook-off.”
A picture is worth its weight in gold.
I don’t have a dog in this race could refer to Greyhound races
The squeaky wheel gets the cheese.
Does the Pope shit in the woods?
Horse dog. Don’t I?
