      My buddy is from South Carolina, and I distinctly remember the first time he said this. We were hanging out in his living room with some other friends, and it started to storm. He dropped the “devil’s beating his wife with a frying pan” line, and I swear it was a record scratch moment for everyone in the room. Every single person instantly stopped what they were doing, trying to process what he had just said.

      My grandmother & great grandmother said this when I was a kid, but they were from Nebraska.
