Irreverance of the Day

In The. If you were to say the words, "in the" twice every second, 10,000 times, it would take you 83 minutes. That being said, how often do you suppose the phrase, "pain in the butt" is used on any given day across the country? 10,000 times? 1,000,000 times?

So, why is it acceptable to say "pain in the butt," but not, "butt pain"? Like, "she's being such a butt pain." It's exactly the same thing. In fact, it's better. It's 50% shorter. If everyone started saying, "butt pain," the US economy might see an increase in productivity.

Just a thought.
