Rediculous but true

Postby Fred588 » Sun Mar 17, 2019 2:19 am

This has nothing whatever to do with quicksand but it could be fun. I invite people to contribute examples of "sayings" that sound, and are, ridiculous on the surface but that are also true.

Here are two examples:

1. There is more than one way to skin a cat, but sometimes you just get bitten.

2. Yu can always lead a horse to water, but if you can get it to do the backstroke then you've really got something.

If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach a man to fish, he'll sit on his butt all day with a rod in one hand and a bottle of beer in the other!

Good one. In the old days he would also have a (cigar) butt in his mouth.

How about, computers may be the future but there is no app for breaking up a fatberg!

If it looks like a duck, and is quacks like a duck, and it walks like a duck, then most likely its a duck.

Here is a nice collection:

To err is human. But, to REALLY foul things up, requires a computer.

It is always darkest before the storm.

It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak up and remove all doubt.

Black holes are where God divided by zero.

One often meets his destiny on the path he takes to avoid it.

We grow old too soon and become wise too late.

Talk is cheap because supply exceeds demand.

Love is chemistry. Sex is physics.

A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.

Avoid life. It will kill you in the end.

A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.

A man who runs behind a car will get exhausted. A man who runs in front of a car will get tired.

The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder.

Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there is a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.

If you can't be a good example, serve as a horrible warning.

Eat well, stay fit, die anyway.

Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue.

You can lead a man to knowledge, but you can't make him think!
I sink, therefore I WAM!!!!

(((ioi)))
