This thread is to discuss the awesome phrase, "Like a Fox", Like a Fox

For those of you unaware of what it means here is the defenition Like a Fox:

Quote


When something, anything, is like a fox. Not necessarily good or bad.

"Hey, isn't that thing over there cool?"
"Yeah, cool like a fox."
-------------------------------------------------------

A saying that can be added on to practically anything, or used on its own. It can be positive or negative, sarcastic or serious, can also have hidden meanings, which usually are not noticed due to the common usuage of the phrase. The term 'like a fox' first appeared on The Simpsons, when the Homer said "stupid like a fox."

"Damn, when did you get to be so smart?"
"Smart like a fox!"

"Your intelligence astounds me."
"Like a fox!"


I love to say "Like a Fox" Like a Fox. What do other people think of "Like a Fox"?
You better like it or I'll hunt you down Like a Fox Posted Image

The phrase should only be muttered if, right after saying it, you say, "Nyeeeh" while pumping your right fist forward and back a few times. That being said, I'll use "Like a fox." a good two or three times during the course of a given week.

Now does that mean you hate mayo the same way a fox does, or you hate mayo like you hate foxes? Hmm...considering the nature of this topic i'm guessing the first.

In this case, it doesn't mean anything. I just like to say it... say it Like a Fox!

Perhaps he made the phrase...famous isn't the right word, but that's the only one I can think of.

Or maybe SA's being weird.

Rupert Mudoch --> Fox --> The Simpsons --> "Like a Fox"

That's just a guess.
