Apparently, itâs the tamer version of âfuck the dogâ.
Whether the action was feeding, walking, or fornicating, though, all of these early examples were used to mean âto loaf aroundâ or âto waste timeâ (dogs have often been associated with laziness, as in the expression âdogging itâ). Later on, possibly around World War II, âfucking the dogâ and its euphemistic equivalents took on a secondary meaning of âblundering.â
