You Know That Saying ... (T/F?)

Kätzchen · 01-23-2017, 02:20 PM

"Red sky in morning, sailor take warning;
Red sky at night, sailor's delight," ~ Sailor's Proverb.

For the most part, I think this saying is true. But I've seen some awesome sunrise's in startling shades of pinks or reds, yet the day remains exceptionally beautiful. I think what the saying infers is that we remain aware of our surroundings. I think an added caveat would be that anything is possible, so enjoy life, be cognizant of our present state of mind, and cherish our delights.

New fun & fluff game:

A) List an colloquial saying; and then,
B) state whether you think it's true or false and then state why you think it's true or false.
C) Have fun, enjoy! : )

"If a frog had wings, he wouldn't bump his ass hoppin'."

VERDICT: FALSE. Wings are used for flying, not hopping. If the frog's ass bumped before he got wings, it will also bump after. Some frogs may have sad bony little asses that never got bumped, but some individuals (I'm looking at you, Kardashian frogs) may find that their asses bump no matter what they do. Your mileage may vary

Once I heard a weather man explain what the real reason was behind pink skies at night and pink skies in morning but SCREW him! I think it's true too

Give a man a fish and he eats for a day, teach a man how to fish and he eats for life.............

I think it's so true..........now if the man was hungry before he learned how to fish, I'd still give him one.

Sidebar: In this country of wealth I think it's criminal to have our citizens eating out of garbage cans! I had a neighbor back in Milwaukee (a retired gentleman) who must of lived on a very small stipend from either SS or his pension! Often he would make the rounds in the mall where I worked checking for discarded food. It would break my heart to see this.

A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words.........

Yes, I believe this is true.....

Beauty Is Only Skin Deep..........

True.....IMHO it's what's underneath that really matters! I've known some very attractive people who were SO ugly on the inside!

homoe · 06-25-2017, 06:03 PM

Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder.............

If this wasn't true, we'd all be fighting over the same woman!

homoe · 06-25-2017, 06:05 PM

One Man's Garbage is Another Man's Treasure............

Exactly, otherwise why would there be so many second hand stores and rummage sales

homoe · 06-25-2017, 06:08 PM

One Hand Washes The Other.............

You know this is TRUE if you've ever had a serious hand injury!

homoe · 06-25-2017, 06:09 PM

Be careful What You Wish For You Just Might Get It........

Kind of a toss up on this one I'd have to say..........

homoe · 06-25-2017, 06:10 PM

Not so sure about this one.

False I don't think this is true at all!

homoe · 06-25-2017, 06:16 PM

50/50 toss up on this.

I'm a realist, I believe in being informed and dealing with things head on even unpleasant things!

homoe · 06-25-2017, 06:22 PM

The squeaky Wheel Gets The Grease............

I think if you're dealing especially with a bureaucracy, it's very true!

homoe · 06-25-2017, 06:24 PM

Actions Speak Louder Than Words...........

I believe this to be true................

homoe · 06-25-2017, 06:30 PM

Fool Me Once Shame On You, Fool Me Twice Shame On Me..........

I believe this to be true...what is that Maya Angelou Quote....
