Feb 21, 2017 at 22:21 | comment | added | David K | This might be a better answer if it had any references (I'm sure some exist, the phrase came up at least in The Last Action Hero, but I'd hope to find others) or if it were explained a little more thoroughly. Compare the answer that recommended come full circle, which invokes the same idea of turning all the way around; that answer provided documentation for the usage of that phrase. | |
