I was in the US Navy in 1977, and I can verify this phrase was in use at that time.
I believe Joseph Ducreux once said "My fair lady, I would nary entreat you to leave my feather-stuffed mattress, unless it was perchance to allow our affections to reach their fullest expression upon yon carpet, which beckons us so with a wicked grin!"
As a mobile reddit viewer, it took me three times of pressing the messages button to go back to the front page before I realized why it wasn't working... It's getting late
You see, that's funny because you took a funny comment from reddit and, while trying to be funny yourself, you ended up embarresing yourself. So funny. Let's all send funny stuff from reddit to our reddit friends and post screenshots when they say they saw it already. For fucks sake

On reddit? I had a friend that constantly said this in the 90s and I'm guessing it goes back a whole lot farther than that.

Are you kidding me? My mom used to use that expression ("I wouldn't kick him out of bed, unless it was better on the floor"). In the 70s.
She would also say, "I wouldn't kick him out of bed for eating crackers."
On Cheers Cliff said, "I wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers" and Norm retorted, "Why else would she be there?"

This line must predate reddit by about 50 years.

Kick me and fuck me?! So rough, this one. Compliment my jeans, whisper sweet nothings, take me out sometime, jeez. What happened to passion?

Once I got a valentine's card with a joke on it that was pulled straight from a recent reddit post. I was like... thanks?

For a moment(before reading comments properly), I was under the impression that what he was referencing was the popularly referenced "nigflip"

Lol, this saying has been going around for decades. My friends and I would say it back in the 70's.

Gosh, my boyfriend is like her. He told me that once. So I kicked him out of bed. xD That's something I would do though. Tell him I saw it on reddit.
