What slang isn't? Is there such a thing as uppercrust slang? Stiff Upper Lip? Think of England?

OP,

What will happen to you if you watch Deliverance?

Will you squeal like a pig?

OP here - I stand corrected. Still, an awful expression.

I think it's the casual violence of its tone that I object to.

Didn't Bill Cosby used to say that, quoting his grandmother? We used this expression when I was a kid, it meant you wanted to knock some common sense into someone. It was a joke, of course, but it could be mistaken for encouraging violence. Use it only around people who understand it's a joke.
