“It’s all gone wahoonie-shaped”. One of the best known bits of Scots, due to it being what the best laid plans o’ mice and men do in the poem “To a mouse” by Robert Burns.

But Mousie, thou are no thy-lane,

In proving foresight may be vain:

The best laid schemes o’ Mice an’ Men,

Gang aft agley,

An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain,

For promis’d joy!
