Does the expression "looks like ten pounds of shit in a five pound bag" refer to pounds as in weight, or as in pound sterling? Thinking about it when have you ever referred to a bag as how much it can carry outside of listing it for sale online or something? Like you wouldn't say "i'm going camping, i'll bring my eight pound bag" so i'm starting to think it's referring to the cost of the bag, not the capacity. What are your thoughts?
