Anonymous What does the sentence below mean? There's not enough context to say what it means. It's a play on another expression: the man that got away, the woman that got away ~ the man (or woman) who was desired and courted but who ended up elsewhere, likely because they ended up with another woman (or man).

- The change to "mouth" indicates that your sentence might be meant to be humorous, but it's impossible to say if that's the only sentence we have to look at.
