Keeping Pigs

Nous n'avons pas gardé les cochons ensemble!

Linda taught us this phrase today, which, I must say, is new to me. It means, 'don't get so familiar with me' and might be used when you say tu instead of vous to someone you hardly know. It originates from when a member of the aristocracy thought that a peasant was getting too familiar, hence, 'we didn't keep pigs together'. Merci Linda.
