Post a dumb saying.

[Swede]

Life is too short not to drink bad wine.

[LaraMN]

1. "God never gives us more than we can handle."

That one's grounds for a beat-down.

[ashling]

47. God never closes a door unless he opens a window'

yeah, so he can slam it on the back of my head while I'm trying to climb through!

[BigMcLargehuge]

55. And God keeps turning the friggin thermostat up...

God wants me to go bankrupt heating my house.

[mikeytherat]

[JackBeck]

5. "At the end of the day..."

[leftofthedial]

6. things are more like they are now

than they ever have been before.




everything happens for a reason.

[Sugar Smack]

75. "everything happens for a reason" I HATE that one, too!!!

Everything DOES NOT happen for a reason. The implication here is that there's a GOOD reason for everything, or at the very least a sound one.

:grr:

[mikeytherat]

7. "Its always in the last place you look."

mikey_the_rat

[Bassic]

[stlchic]

12. "Let Freedom Reign" n/t

[u4ic]

61. Freedom is on the March!

:puke:

[madinmaryland]

13. If you haven't done anything wrong,

you have nothing to worry about.

[jpgray]

14. "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade"

It should be paired with these two:

"What if I don't like lemonade?"

"Too fucking bad."

[slide to the left]

62. I prefer

When life gives you lemons, make a lemon drop martini

[maveric]

15. "Freedom isnt Free".

I still havent figured that one out yet.

[ashling]

48. when people complain about the

noise of the firing range at a military installation someone inevitably says that it is "the sould of freedom"

[Aristus]

79. You're not supposed to figure it out. It's right-wing masturbatory

soft-porn. No matter how many Americans die horrible deaths, no matter how many come home missing legs, arms, faces and testicles, no matter how many crack under the strain and kill themselves or their wives or their children, no matter how many billions in tax-payer dollars and Chinese-purchased T-bills thrown down the crapper for no reason, no matter that the administration is blatantly, smugly and proudly spying on American citizens, no matter that America has joined Uruguay, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Tanzania, Indonesia and Pakistan among the nations that officially sanction torture, no matter how long Osama Bin Laden remains free and at large, drawing closer and closer to a death by natural causes, no matter about any of that; The brain-dead right-wingers of this once-great country will croon to themselves "Well, freedom isn't free!" and everything will be all right.

:rant:

End of rant.

[Dora]

16. Everything happens for a reason.

Yeah. It's called cause-and-effect.

[terrya]

17. "One in the hand is worth two in the bush"

I have no idea what that means...

[jpgray]

18. I;m going to not post what I was going to post

[dubyaD40web]

20. LOL......"but a push in the bush....."

[hyphenate]

19. It is better to have loved and lost

Than never to have loved at all.

Not lust of conquest, but love of order is at the basis of Empire.

[darmok167]

81. yeah, I'm going to have to call "bullshit" on that one as well.

Having never loved at all causes no pain.

Loving and losing hurts like Hell.

That's why there is another saying, "I wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then." :)

[edbermac]

21. Go take a short walk on a long pier.

[no name no slogan]

22. "People who go to bed with itchy butts wake up with smelly hands"

[meow2u3]

Not always for a good reason, might I add.

25. "Today is the first day of the rest of your life"

Well, duh. It could also be the last day of the rest of your life. You won't know until tomorrow.:silly:

[tjwash]

26. we're from the government, and we're here to help.

[skygazer]

27. "My father before me"

As opposed to your father after you?

[Shakespeare]

28. Actually, that's "life's too short TO drink bad wine."

Not so sure it's dumb, though.

I always liked: "Everything happens for a reason."

[Road Scholar]

38. Hey, Hey! Carefull there. LOL

[EstimatedProphet]

29. 'It's an ill wind which blows nobody no good'

What's this supposed to mean anyway?

[Deja Q]

30. 'may God bless America'... God hasn't blessed us yet... though

God has been wiping it on us... :rofl:

[TheBaldyMan]

31. God told me to do it.

[TheBaldyMan]

65. GTA told me to do it

Chuckie from Child's Play told me to do it.

[Kashka-Kat]

32. "If u don't like the weather stick around, it'll change" Everyone thinks

that phrase is unique to their own area--but it isnt!! News flash: your state or country does not have more changeable weather than anywhere else and everyone everywhere says that same dumb phrase!

[Benfea]

36. I've lived all over the world (Asia, Europe and N. America) and...

…that's not quite as universal as you'd think. What is really universal is complaining about the quality of the local tap water.

[Kashka-Kat]

51. All right. I'll modify my comments to

pertain only to parts of Europe and North America then. Geez let me have a little fun already!

[Benfea]

72. Vee doont allow zat "fun" sing aroond heer! -NT

[ucmike]

33. it's a dry heat.

BULLSHIT-IT'S 112 DEGREES OUT THERE!!!!!!!!!!

the only people who say that are people who have never lived in it. i lived in tempe and people in NJ would tell me "but it's dry heat, it's not as bad."

[Shakespeare]

34. Having lived in both humid and arid places that get hotter than hell...

I can tell a difference. Yes, it's still horribly hot, but it's not as suffocating as the same temp in a humid area. I'll take a 112-degree day in Phoenix ANY day over a 90-degree day in Houston.

[KamaAina]

35. "It's getting harder to put food on your family."

[Blue Belle]

I just thought this was so DUMB

[Road Scholar]

41. I guess I gonna have to change my by- line. LOL nt

[GoddessOfGuinness]

42. Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me.

Bullshit.

[pokerfan]

43. When used separately, women and alcohol can be a lot of fun.

But if you mix 'em, they can turn you into a dumbass.

46. "Things are not what they seem, nor are they otherwise."

[ashling]

49. Neither here nor there

remember the Beatles song: Neither Here, There, nor Anywhere?

[0007]

50. King Cole

O King Cole

[Liberalynn]

52. I'm Stealing from Comedians

Well duh, why keep looking if you've found what you were looking for?

[laheina]

54. Stupid is as stupid does.

I get it, but...huh?

[Brazenly Liberal]

I hate when someone says that to me. What the hell kind of comfort is that supposed to be?

[Tikki]

57. "You can't live in a hole in the road"...

OK, mom...we'll try to remember that....





Tikki

[HughBeaumont]

58. "Can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs!"

Actually, you CAN, dumbshit.

More on why this phrase is stupid . . .

[uppityperson]

59. How many is a brazillion?

[riona]

60. it wasn't meant to be

[RandomKoolzip]

63. "First they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win..."

I fucking hate that saying. After all, people laugh at the proponents of intelligent design, too.

[TheBaldyMan]

64. that's originally from Mahatma Ghandi,

IMO definately not a dumb saying, more an observation taken from his experience.

[RandomKoolzip]

68. I know Ghandi said it.

But it's been appropriated by a lot of nutjobs on the left to prop up their idiotic conspiracy theories (Chetrails, etc.)as if to say, "Well, you laugh now, but someday, EVERYONE will know the TRUTH about Chemtrails!"

Any group, no matter how dangerous, could use this quote to defend themselves against criticism. We laugh at Intelligent Design boosters, but they could use that quote, too. It's basically saying that any loony theory or view will eventually be considered the normal view simply by continuing to exist.

[TheBaldyMan]

71. taken in context it's a cool epigram

ID is a whacko brainfart and always will be, Ghandi was taking about non-violent direct action. There is and always will be several degrees of magnitude seperating those two things.

If anyone is foolish enough to appropriate that saying for their insane cause it won't stop them from being defeated, it's just another demonstration of their ignorance. I don't know about chemtrails but perhaps the people mis-using the quote should study the original setting in which it was said.

[bigtree]

66. your arms too short to box with god

[Critters2]

67. Never place a period where God has placed a comma

My denomination's new slogan. I'm sick of it already.

:puke:

[maveric]

69. "Curiosity Killed the Cat".

Yeah, lets not be curious at all.

[darmok167]

82. Isn't there a response?

Something like "But gratification brought him back?"

[WeRQ4U]

70. You always find things in the last place you look.

Well no shit.

[Dukkha]

73. Peace Through Superior Firepower

WRONG!!!

[NNadir]

74. Compassionate conservatism

[HughBeaumont]

76. "Opinions are like assholes: everyone's got one and they all stink"

DUMB.

I once went to a Jello Biafra spoken word and a banner that had this stupid slogan fell off of the wall. Jello looked over at it and said "'Opinions are like assholes' .. . huh, I'm kind of GLAD that thing fell!" Once everyone caught on, they applauded.

[DainBramaged]

77. For every seat there is an ass (my Dad, circa 1950's something)

[rurallib]

78. "Behind every silver lining is a cloud"

[darmok167]

80. Home is where you hang your hat.

I don't wear a hat very often, but when I do, I take it off and put it on a shelf. Does this mean I don't have a home?

[darmok167]

83. Conflicting quotes...which is it?

Do good things come to those who wait or does the early bird get the worm? And if the early bird gets the worm, what does the early worm get? And how do I know if I am a bird or a worm? This is confusing. :)

[swag]

84. "Love means never having to say you're sorry."
