New Phrase

Now that I've gotten all the MB books out, I've been sucked into reading them yet again, starting with #1. And yet again, I've been delighted with something I never noticed before (on p.22).

I've learned a new phrase, which may, I say may, be scatological. Or sexual. Or it might be military slang of some kind. I just don't know, but I think it's really funny.

Well, stuff me standing load!

Said in admiration of a particularly clever psychological move on another character's part.

Do you think it's sort of like "well, shut my mouth!" as we say down south? And just what kind of "load" are we talking about? Cannon? Bowel? Penile? You see where the possibilities might lead us.
