Please explain this saying?


In an episode when April says they dont have any friends because Kenny pushes them away, Kenny says whats Stevies Family chopped liver?

Whats that saying mean? Ive heard it in music and alot on tv shows. Any help appreciated.

reply

it means, "o h so stevies family doesn't count as friends?"

"the day I tried to live, I learned that I was alive"

reply

Its because liver tastes terrible.

reply

Chopped liver is really good with fried onions on a bed of wild rice...Yum!

reply

I don't really get the expression "on a bed of ____" or maybe I just don't like that expression at all.

reply

Animal organs where cheap because people usually wouldn't eat them.. so you have Filet Mignon on one hand and chopped liver on the other... being that chopped liver is less desirable.

Basically saying 'what, his family doesn't count?'

And by the way what song have you heard that saying in?
