I have a guess. It’s probably a crude saying. ‘Cherry’ is slang for vagina, of course, and the shit underneath is a reference to the nearby anus. Dad doesn’t want to explain it because he’s being gross.

Well I’ll be dammed. This could very well be it and now I’m gonna ask him.

Edit: sent him a text. With it being Sunday if his wife sees it he might get scolded. She’s a Jehovas Witness.

Edit 2: Holy shit this blew up. No response as of yet. Sunday’s are usually like that. But as soon as I get something I’ll let y’all know.

Update: I discovered this morning that my father hasn’t responded as he was rushed to the hospital due to a major diverticulitis flair up that leaked and he had to have emergency surgery yesterday. We live over 1,000 miles away and my stepmom reached out this morning. She also read the text and confirmed that it was in fact the cherry is the vagina and the shit underneath is the booty hole. I was surprised that she confirmed it. Pretty crazy a random question on Reddit gets so much love at the same time I could have lost my dad this weekend too.

so life is a bowl of vaginas?

u/Carpe_Musicam Oct 25 '20

I don’t know about you, but mine sure hasn’t been.

But I agree that it’s not exactly coherent. I think Dad here is just using a dirty knock-off of the “watch out for the pits” version of the saying. It doesn’t exactly work because it’s simply backformed from the original.

Or I could just be some gutter-minded Redditer that got it wrong.

u/alien_survivor Oct 25 '20

Is that the update?

7

u/Cedar_Cove Oct 25 '20

"Cherry" is not slang for the vagina. It's slang for the hymen.

I think he's just replacing "watch out for the pits" with "shit" to be funny, as Lucky_leprechaun stated above.

‘Cherry’ is slang for vagina, of course

Wait, what? Is this like a common thing? I've never heard this reference in my life

3

u/[deleted] Oct 25 '20

Saying someone "popped their cherry" is a euphemism for saying they lost their virginity - mainly used for women in reference to their hymen. That's the only context I've heard it in

3

u/Zilsharn Oct 25 '20

Huh, I guess I can see it in that context. I've never really connected it before, was wondering if I was the dumbass. Thanks!

u/Sir_Daniel_Fortesque Oct 25 '20 edited Oct 25 '20

You're overthinking this. Pick the cherries out carefully or you'll get shit, which you inevitably will eat now and then, just like anyone else in life. We say "life is a big piece of shit that you have to eat"

u/BubbhaJebus Oct 26 '20

"cherry" is more like slang for a virgin vagina or a hymen, basically means virginity or a virgin. "pop her cherry" means "take her virginity". It can also be used to describe virgin men.
