What's wrong with "chomping at the bit"? It still works
>>
>>24931168
The correct term is "frothing at the bit"
>>
>>24929788
Well, when we gave you free reign and you explained the tenants of your philosophy it just seemed like we had another thing coming.
>>
>>24929788
I sometimes use chomping at the bit, didn’t know it was “incorrect” tho.

>>24931337
Big if true
>>
>>24931337
No, the original is "sipping at the tit"
>>
>>24933660
No, the original is "chimping at the byte", in reference to how a horse, when nervous, will often grind its teeth with a motion so erratic that it draws comparisons with the proverbial "monkey at a keyboard" (which itself is a modernized rehashing of "monkey at a typewriter", which modernization gives us the "byte" portion, in reference to our more digital age).
>>
>>24929832
Bold move.
>>
>>24933786
Byte is just an archaic spelling of bite tho
Hence nybble

>>24929832
this is literally fatphobic

>>24933905
This, many times in days of old y would replace I.
