"Knock you into Next Week"
It is an old expression and I would be curious
to know where it comes from.Does anybody know?
The usage:
He made her angry and she said, "If you don't
do what I say I will knock you into next week!"I think it comes from the implication that you'll hit someone so hard as to render them unconscious until some time next week.
It's figurative. Along the lines of something Muhammad Ali (I think) said: I'm going to hit you so hard your relatives back in Africa will feel it.
Sometimes heard in the form "knock you into the middle of next week."
