Get a snap on it!
Posted: December 27, 2012 Filed under: ACTION, snap | Tags: blended idioms, expressions, hurry up, malaphors, mixed idioms, snap to it, words 2 CommentsThis was uttered by my friend Dave Julian, urging his kids to hurry up. It is a mash up I think of “snap to it” and “get a move on it”, both meaning to go faster. BTW, the latter is a Northeast Ohio/Northwest PA expression – thanks to Roger Curtis for pointing this out (and my “ol pal” from Los Angeles as well!). A thank you to Dave’s wife for sending this one to me.
Malaphors 
Get a move on.
You are right again. I have amended the post accordingly. The malaphor gods bow in your presence.
