Fiery Jack Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 They say "never judge a book by its cover", but the hardcore anal porn mags on my local Paki grocer's top shelf are all sealed in cling-film, so a potential purchaser like myself has no option but to do just that. I wonder if any other board members have stumbled across other oft trotted-out sayings/"proverbs" that are, in reality, patently bullshite. jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khun_Kong Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 Nice post, FJ. As you so accurately noted, many proverbs are total trash. I could never figure out if birds of a feather flock together or if opposites attract. Which one is it? Also, nobody has ever called me a "pussy". Guess that negates "You are what you eat". And, I don't know what the exchange rate is in Stoke, but here in BKK, 2 in the bush is worth way more than just a bird in hand. Some proverbs seem to have gained validity, due to medical and other high tech advances. F'rinstance, since the invention of Viagra, "early to bed, early to rise" has a much greater chance of actually happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiery Jack Posted September 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2004 Yeash ? slightly off topic, but, they also say "you live and learn". Well, I'm 43 and I'm a hopeless lonely divorced manic-depressive alcoholic with no money or friends, so what the fuck am I supposed to have learned? Cheers for any suggestions in advance. jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiLeakHunt Posted September 12, 2004 Report Share Posted September 12, 2004 "Let sleepong dogs lie" I found a drowzy mut in my scratcher one night, and thought of the phrase above. Anyway some cunt took a few snaps and now I'm doing 6 months in strangeways to lament the error of my ways. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
