Origins of the phrase "like nobodies business"
Posted by Badger on December 04, 2003
Mornin' All,
Just wondering about the origins of this phrase... as far as I can remember its a phrase that avoids you swearing, like "Bloomin' heck" as apposed to "Bleeding Hell", usually said with a pause... i.e.
"Like.... nobodies business"
Searched all over Google and Turbo10 but can't find anything.
Any help appreciated.
