Oh, so heʻs YOURS? You need to teach him better manners. It doesnʻt look like the moose bought the buffalo dinner first (I can tell because of the way the buffalo is longingly checking out the grass). RUDE!

Gotta throw a few compliments in there too...

"say, thatʻs a mighty strong hairy back leg youʻve got there!" or "oooh, a hairy back! How I love hairy backs!"

you know, something nice.

I think I'm going to use the phrase "humping the buffalo" in future, to describe when someone is over-familiar or presumptuous without having done the groundwork...getting ahead of themselves.

As in.. "Hey dude! Would you please stop humping the buffalo!"???

Yeah, that would work

[kindlekitten]

so the next time you get screwed over in a business deal you can say; "MAN!!! they REALLY humped my buffalo!"?

It's not really about being screwed - it's more about, let's say, a cold caller who says something like "Hey, Marc-o. Can I call you Marc-o?"; or a new acquaintance or workmate that asks you to help them move house; or an aunt that insists on coming to your "small [and necessarily inexpensive] wedding reception" even though you haven't seen or spoken to her in twenty years; it's about all those workplace birthday cards and chip-ins for cake you've had to sign and contribute to for people you don't like and cake you won't eat; it's about workmen helping themselves to your fridge without asking; it's about ski lodges assuming you'll want to sit with a group of people for dinner.

It's basically about people taking liberties, from a poorly-assumed, ahead-of-themselves status of acquaintance between you. So, if someone I once knew 15 years ago at a former workplace looks me up on Facebook and, remembering we'd occasionally have empathetic conversations about our employment environment, says "Hey, I might come up and stay at your place for a week of par-tay-ing. Great, yeah?", I'd say they're humping the buffalo.

Cheers,
Marc

Love it Marc- you are a smart cookie. Or am I humping the buffalo now?
But will include it in my repertoire as well.
