      Sure as shit is!!

      (Translation: Yes, that phrasing is correct, and it references the mess your friend leaves throwing up on your lawn when leaving your house drunk late at night, that later becomes the dogs breakfast…)

      (Technically a dogs breakfast ACTUALLY means "messy and made up of random mismatched bits, but I’ve always like the first explanation better)

      Yep, “a dog’s breakfast” is slang for something poorly done, a confused mess, or something that’s gone very badly or is terribly disorganized.
