B00, i think you should let us in to your first thought !!!

If one says something 'tongue in cheek', It usually means the words are spoken jokingly or insincerely nowadays. When it was first used in written English - by Tobias Smollett in his novel, Roderick Random, published in 1748 - it suggested some stronger emotion. He wrote: "I signified my contempt of him by thrusting my tongue in my cheek."
It can also suggest that one is making an effort not to laugh. The actual form �tongue in cheek' - ie these exact words in that order - did not appear until the 1930s and the hyphenated version �tongue-in-cheek' - not until the 1950s.
Obviously, I do not know what Boo was referring to, but I have seen the action actually used in recent films to suggest an act of fellatio. Maybe that's what Smollett meant, too!
Yall are such pervs!! If you want to talk that kind of crap do it somewhere else. I think the main purpose of this site is to have educational questions that need to be answered. So grow up!!! Thanks quizmonster for giving a great answer, & how do you come up with those things? Do you google them or something or do you just have this information at the top of your head?
Thanks, Young&smart. The answer to your question is...most often top of head, sometimes Google, sometimes one or other of the multitude of other reference sources I have available. The main thing is, though, that I have been around for a long, long time and a voracious reader throughout these years. Lots of it has just stuck, that's all.

(My apologies that this has nothing to do with your thread, Funkymoped.)

FM,

You know as well as I do that the thread of question and responses you, zigzag, and Boo were giving were not as innocent as you try to make it out to be. And the only reason I even left a comment was I hate to see questions like that. So I hope you consider other people before you talk about that on the internet.

Thanks
thanks for the great answer QuizMonster
