Piss cheap

The speaker was out at dinner with his girlfriend, and referred to a certain menu item as “piss cheap”. This is a mashup of “dirt cheap” (very inexpensive) and “piss poor” (very poor quality). The malaphor described the food item perfectly, as it was not only inexpensive but also did not taste good. This mixup could also describe what happens when you drink Iron City beer. Hats off to Luke Doblick for sending this one in!
