- a question of whether it's just 'dead' as intensifier like 'dead wrong' (probably) or 'dead to rights' as in now you are as good as a deceased person in terms of your legal rights (more interesting but probably not)...
Avatar 4:18pm

Yah where does the "rights" bit come into play? It's disappointing, I'm expecting a deed or certificate or something.

Avatar 4:36pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

- oh but that's (drink the kooloaid) from Jonestown. I like that: 'KoolAid' sounds sweet, cheap & refreshing - but means you believe & will die. See: It's that there's a specific etymological history to words - & also phrases - & then there's a more common immediate reaction to words - shades of meaning...that's why 'dead to rights' is weird: It doesn't *sound like* where it comes from as a a phrase...
Avatar 4:38pm
Cecile:

I just hate the phrase because I still remember that day in Jonestown like it was yesterday. There are lots of other phrases that say the same thing.
