Mad enough to chew nails and spit BB's.
Well, You probably are right on that, but I've always heard dam I suspect that sometimes people put their on "spin " on it, who knows???? Merrydun":igt4e1p5 said:mermill2":igt4e1p5 said:Not worth a tinker's dam. Merry
Not to be critical, but the actual term is "tinkers darn". A tinkers darn is the repair(darn) made to a pot by a tinker.

I don't remember saying anything like damn or etc. around my dad. He had a violent temper, and most of the time we were scared to death of him.

It sounds stronger to say dam then the wimpy darn.
When I was a squirt I once said tinkers dam and my dad after wailing the snot out of me with a razor strap explained it to me.
