Re: Interesting sayings

There is a saying in the West Midlands, around Wolverhampton area mostly, which states that a person who over eats will become 'as fat as a bonc 'oss'

What this refers to is the old practice of retiring pit ponies up onto the hill sides (that is 'bonc), where the fresh grass and no work meant that they would soon fatten up.

Re: Interesting sayings

Paraprosdokians

1. Where there's a will, I want to be
in it.

2. The last thing I want to do is hurt
you. But it's still on my list.

3. Since light travels faster than
sound, some people appear bright until
you hear them speak.

4. If I agreed with you, we'd both be
wrong.

5. We never really grow up, we only
learn how to act in public.

6. War does not determine who is right -
only who is left.

7. Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a
fruit..
Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

8. To steal ideas from one person is
plagiarism.
To steal from many is research.

9. I didn't say it was your fault, I
said I was blaming you.

10. In filling out an application, where
it says,
'In case of emergency, Notify:' I put
'DOCTOR'.

11. Women will never be equal to men
until they can walk down the street with
a bald head and a beer gut, and still
think they are sexy.

12. You do not need a parachute to skydive.
You only need a parachute to skydive twice.

13. I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not
so sure..

14. To be sure of hitting the target,
shoot first and call whatever you hit
the target.

15. Going to church doesn't make you a
Christian any more than standing in a
garage makes you a car.

16. You're never too old to learn
something stupid.

17. I'm supposed to respect my elders,
but it’s getting harder and harder for
me to find one now.

Re: Interesting sayings

When we had those few days of wonderful sunshine, which brought out all sorts of sights, was reminded of the saying "The things you see when you do not have a gun".
