Homoe, what about phrases of thought which are only uttered through mnemomic device ....like the hook signature melody from the movie, Jaws???
Mnemonic Device (definition): Techniques an person uses to help improve one's ability to remember. It's an memory technique to help your brain to better encode and recall important information. No words are spoken. Yet, in particular cases, the hook signature line of an orchestral arrangement, in this case it's from the movie Jaws, which invokes the signal that there is something scary going on--- something that isn't always readily seen by the human eye. |

Horrible depressing "monkey chatter" that assaults your brain in the early morning hours when you first wake up.
Dump that crap. That's why you have a glorious happy day ahead of you.

"No Good Deed Goes Unpunished".............
This means that people can do or try to do good things and still end up in a lot of trouble.No matter who is being helped, what assistance is offered, the circumstances surrounding the gesture or the nature of the actual support offered there will ALWAYS be a hidden penalty inflicted on the provider. Sidebar: I believe this is a quote attributed to Oscar Wilde |

....Dead as an door nail ....
This is one of many similes that puts emphasis on an adjective. It also refers to the big heavy studded nails used in medieval doors, which generally sat underneath the huge brass door knocker's. |

"The Road To Hell Is Paved With Good Intentions"...........
Meaning that people often intend to do good things but in fact do not, often because they are lazy or just don't follow thru. |
