Malarkey.
“It has been a source of great pain to me to have met with so many among [my] opponents who had not the liberality to distinguish between political and social opposition; who transferred at once to the person, the hatred they bore to his political opinions.” —Thomas Jefferson (1808)

hobnob
from Webster's:
Hobnob and Shakespeare
Hob and nob first came together in print in Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, when Sir Toby Belch warns Viola (who is disguised as a man) that Sir Andrew wants to duel. "Hob, nob is his word," says Sir Toby, using hob and nob to mean something like "hit or miss." Sir Toby's words are probably from the term habnab (also styled as a phrase: hab or nab), which meant "in one way or another" or "however it may turn out." After Shakespeare's day, hob and nob became established in the phrase to drink hobnob (also styled as to drink hob or nob), which meant "to drink alternately to each other." Since "drinking hobnob" was generally done among friends, hobnob came to refer to congenial social interaction.0 -

It definitely takes a different meaning now if your buddy tells you he blew a tranny last night.

Son, you need to work up a grubstake and get out on your own.

Oh that reminded me: "Mind your beeswax".
There are a bunch of theories about its origin, most disputed, none authoritative that I can find, except that it is a substitution for the more abrupt "mind your business".
