: : In a discussion about the term "**** the bed" I turned here for clarity and found none. My thoughts on the term are that it refers to someone dying; as in the condition many dead bodies are found in. Is this incorrect? I have heard the term used to describe a broken down car, the meaning being that it may not be worth revival. Another use being in the description of a plan gone wrong; "everything **** the bed" etc.

: Are you saying that you have heard it used in one or more of the ways you describe? I have heard it only with a single meaning. When someone ****s the bed, it means that they have **** in it. Have you heard otherwise, and are you certain?

"**** the bed" does mean a complete and obvious failure but it's human rather than a mechanical failure. I think I first heard it in the late 80's. I don't hear it much if at all anymore, thank goodness.
