Let's consider the phrase Damned straight.
generally speaking, it means that someone is very correct with an assertion they made, and the person saying damned straight is in sheer utter complete agreement with that assertion.
Now, let's take another phrase.
God damn you straight to hell.
This is generally considered to be a very vulgar curse because they want you to burn in hell for all eternity.
So let's do some brain storming, and cross hatch the meaning of these two phrases.
Damned straight to hell.
So the saying takes on a completely different meaning when it is expressed that way.
One which can be taken in several different ways.
it also means that if you are straight you are damned.
And that well.....
So there yo go.
