Meaning
Hello friends,
Could you please tell me the meaning of the bold part?
Jean Louise sat there, and giggled when she heard her uncle fussing at his sister in the kitchen. “Of course I’m going to have a drink, Zandra. I deserve one. I don’t go about hittin’ women every day, and I tell you if you’re not used to it, it takes it out of you . . . oh, she’s all right . . . I fail to detect the difference between drinking it and eatin’ it . . . we’re all of us going to hell, it’s just a question of time . . . don’t be such an old pot, Sister, I’m not lyin’ on the floor yet . . . why don’t you have one?”
Thank you
