I remember assorted family members trotting out the timeworn complaint "I'm beat like a drumstick" and thinking, up until I was maybe ten, they were taking about a chicken drumstick. The logic was a chicken drumstick, if you like fried chicken (or Shake'n'Bake), is often beat within a bag full of batter or breadcrumbs. Eventually, it struck me they were talking about an actual, wooden drumstick. It's a more descriptive but less delicious choice. We think they should beat the person behind gluing a cat to a Minnesota highway, but we're glad FightingChance took a more humorous and less drastic approach to welcoming a new commenter to the Internet.
