I’m not good at English where does the phrase tits up originate from? If that’s not rude to ask :)

- qingcharles 2y agoAs a Britisher I did not know the origin before, thank you. But, "pear-shaped" originated within my own lifetime? This has blown my mind as I cannot remember a time before this phrase existed and it seems eternal.
