Who's heard of the phrase 'to give someone a chop out' ?

[Homestar]

Simple question, yes or no. If you don't know what it means, it means to give someone a hand, but vote no if that's the case. I'll reveal why I asked later on.

It's a term that I've used for over 20 years in the work place.

Googling, I get "to give someone what they deserve", usually used as a put down when something bad happens.
Aslo, "to give someone a chewing out".

Never heard of it. Seems to be a Mexican saying judging by the postings.

I have heard of "to give someone the chop" which means to sack them!!

Second result on Google shows the meaning I'm on about - the Faceplant result.

Could be something in that - the above Faceplant result I refered to is from Melbourne.

Interesting.

So who didn't vote yes? 4 people say they have heard of it, but only 3 votes for yes...

Cmon, I need every yes I can muster.
