| proverb |
it's not me, and over there what you see is not my mare; I'm in the clear (the saying usually means: "it's not me who did it! I'm not to blame!" used (often: sarcastically) about a person who deceitfully denies the fact of one's doing something or of one's consent to do something. it may also be used jocularly in case of someone's denying all and every thing, like: "it's not me and it's not my dog"); no one can throw stones at me; I'm not to blame, for I wasn't game; no one can point a finger at me |
