I had always heard this as you don't know sh*t from shine, maybe shinola is a shoe polish but it makes less sense to me that way.
I'd love to stay but gotta go to the brain repair unit for servicing now

Shinola is a brand of wax shoe polish available in the early- to mid-20th century. Its immortality in colloquial English comes from its being a dark, pasty, semisolid substance.
Now.... try to determine which one is the hole in the ground...

Shinola- a new cereal from GM that was only released four days ago- made from dried shins of leprechaun's.
You must have inside track to General Mills......
Just kidding, of course, hope it made you smile!
