TIL at today years old what Cat is out of the bag means....
It means to say something that can't be unsaid, usually in the context of blabbing a secret. The origin is from the British Royal Navy in the age of sail. The "cat" is a Cat'o' nine-tails a type of whip used for punishment. It was stored in a velvet bag, and once it came out there was no going back, it was going to be used on you.
