Proverbs Gone Wrong

WORDS OF WISDOM GONE WRONG

Still nothing happening in the world worth writing about so today I decided to play around with words.
Proverbs, more specifically.

You know, those clever little phrases that encapsulates years of experience, knowledge and wisdom in just a few words.

I am too lazy and probably not wise enough to come up with my own proverbs, but decided that it could be a lot of fun engaging in some distorted plagiarism.

So here it is then.
There are always two sides to a story, the best man often loses, and logic is one of the oldest superstitions

· The kettle does not care whether you are watching or not.

· The early worm gets eaten by the bird.

· You can't have everything, where would you put it?

· Once bitten by two dogs

· When days are dark turn on the light

· When friends are few enjoy the abundance

· A bird in hand is worth two on a dating site

· God helps those who don’t need help

· Only drunk people ever have to say ‘I’m not drunk’

· Leave all the stones unturned unless you are looking for insects and worms

· Denial is not just a river in Egypt

· Pennywise pound millionaire

· If your parents never had children, chances are you won't, either.

· When one door is closed it quickly becomes a fad

· He who hesitates probably smoked weed.

· Time wounds all heels

· Never insult an alligator until after you have crossed the river.

· Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we will be broke
