[–] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago (2 children) I'm kind of disturbed by the fact that they call it "being in the dog house"... Is it a common expression in English? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] papalonian@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago Someone else answered but yes it's a boomer expression. Basically to mean you're in trouble with your spouse. (They aren't letting you in their bed so you go to sleep with your dog in the dog house.) permalink fedilink source parent [–] WhiteOakBayou@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago Yes, I've never heard a real person use it but I've heard it on TV enough to know what it means. I think it's a boomer expression. permalink fedilink source parent
