GREYCELL #25


The origin of this phrase is not clear. Some say it is a stand-up comedian named Jordan Brady, who introduced it in an early 1990s stand-up show called The A-List. Urban dictionary says ‘Sex scenes in porn videos during the seventies were accompanied with what was considered to be cheesy music, even by seventies standards. The music was generically the same, sounding much like X.  As a result, the phrase came into usage to reference something sexual, whether explicit or implied’. More recently, an ad campaign by a famous company used a slight variant of this popular phrase.
