I keep seeing people use the phrase "fuck around and find out" but surely it's "fuck ABOUT and find out"? It rhymes! The other version doesn't sound nearly as good. Or am I the one getting it wrong?

You’re wrong.
And it doesn’t rhyme.

It does in my accent.

Aberdonian??

No. ‘Fuck about and find out’ is too nursery-rhyme ish.

No, North Yorkshire. It didn't occur to me that it might not rhyme for other people so I guess I've got my answer.

It ryhmes for me too and I'm down South.
