Phrases and words that you like

You can go at it like piffy. Who or what was piffy?

Like a piffy on a barmcake, I liked, when I heard someone say it.

Ah, thank you.
I suppose these phrases will die out and have no meaning at some point.
What a shame.

Not "tonnage" - where did that come from? - "to have"...

I always understood it to mean, to be broken or tonnage broken down. Like "gone West"
