Out of the Closet

Etymologists Take Note





I was watching the 1932 film "Movie Crazy," starring Harold Lloyd as "an accident prone young man with little or no acting ability, who desperately wants to be in pictures."  Harold is reading some pulp fiction when he comes to this life changing illustration.  Harold quits his job and  heads to Hollywood where hilarity ensues.  Interesting  etymology.

If you've ever been the guy in the closet you never forget it. I was very young, she was luscious and I was foolish enough to believe her when she assured me her husband wouldn't be home for hours. I know, I know. I did wrong. What can I tellya, Mr. Happy has no conscience. Oh, the outcome? Luckily for me the husband came home and then went out again after about 2 hours. Longest 2 hours of my life. And pure luck that he didn't use that particular closet. End of story.
