I had this silly idea years ago and tried to explain it to someone. They didn’t find my “You’re barking up the wrong horse” example amusing for some reason.
Reminds me of this guy:
A stitch in time is a penny earned.
Tell that to a quark.
(I really wish they hadn’t decided to call them top/bottom).
Yeah, those names aren’t strange or charming enough.
Crime is a lie.
“One man’s junk has ears.”
This one sure paints a picture…
That is fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
Well that explains my shortage of bananas.
“Practice is worth doing well.”
So, so true. Artists: the sooner you learn this, the better you’ll be in whatever you do.
“A friend in need is better than none.”
Awww…feelin’ that. Man, these are great!
“He who knows, does not speak. He who speaks, must be endured.”
Hmm. A bit cynical but yeah, sometimes true.
“No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is dies young.”
Uh…geez, that’s kind of depressi—
“Give a man enough rope and he starts with a single step.”
Well, that got dark quickly.
It’s just gone all existentialist on me.
“Life is a lie.”
See, it’s true!
“Two is company, but three is hot.”
Well, aren’t we feeling frisky.
“One man’s junk cannot stand.”
He should go and see a doctor about that.
An army is nine-tenths of the law.
Yeah, that sounds about right.
“Dead men cannot live by bread alone”. Seems legit.
Real pros don’t need tools to annoy and confuse friends. I would prove it if I had any friends!
“Ignorance is its own reward.” Just ask Trump!
“An army deserves another." Whoah.
“The rain in Spain spoils the broth.” Try not leaving it outside next time.
Dead men are another man’s treasure.
