Funny proverbs

I have been searching for funny proverbs and idiomatic phrases since forever and I have a huge pile of notebooks filled with them at home. I just wanted to start sharing. So if you know a funny proverb, post it here. smile

Internet - it doesn't make you stupid. It just makes your stupidity more accesible to others.

This is one my my favourites, even though it makes no sense:
Early bird catches the worm but mouse number two gets the cheese. big_smile

Re: Funny proverbs

some of these are not really proverbs, but i like them. smile

If you look like your passport then you probably need the holiday.

Be kind to your kids, because one day they will pick your nursing home.

War does not determine who is right, war determine who is left.

There are no short cuts to any place worth going.

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.


I could keep going all day with these. smile

Re: Funny proverbs

I also love the confuscious say kind....

• Confucius say, man who eat crackers in bed wake up feeling crummy
• Confucius say, man who sleep in bed of nails is holy
• Confucius say, man with big mouth beware of foot

some more proverbs.....
A conclusion is simply the place where someone got tired of thinking.
The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one.
Experience is that marvelous thing that enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.

I get that but:

If early bird catches the worm, the second bird gets nothing.
If mouse number one is dead, mouse number two gets the cheese.

So they kinda rule each other out, if you get my point? smile In the other one The first one gets the price, in the second one it's the second one. And combining those two: no sense at all. But yet, my favourite!

And here's some more. I translated them in my head, so I can't promise that they're understandable.

People who think they know everything annoy us who know everything.

The secret to complete relaxation is to have a person who worries everything for you.

Bombs don't kill people. Explosions do.

You can't be late before you arrive.

As I said, I never repeat myself.

Everything good in life is illegal, immoral or makes you fat.

A flashlight is where you store empty batteries.

All the easy problems have already been solved.

Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die.

Friends come and go, enemies accumulate.

The most important thing about raindance is timing.
