Proverbs

A few weeks ago, I posted some proverbs on my twitter account @misterspidergod. Some of them are collected here. Why? Two reasons, Twitter is an awful archiving tool and more importantly, I am lazy.

  • There's more than one way to skin a cat. There are six; original, western, double original, diet, buffalo-fireball and alpine.
  • Too many cooks spoil the broth. Because, generally, cooks are dicks.
  • A picture is worth a thousand milli-pictures.
  • The proof is in the pudding. So if you're a detective, check out the pudding.
  • It takes a thief to catch a thief, it will take a third thief to catch the first one, eventually you'll have to swallow a spider.
  • Lightning never strikes the same place twice more than once.
  • A trouble shared is a trouble doubled.
  • An army marches on its stomach. An army of snakes.
  • A bird in the hand will freak the fuck out.

That's all for now, I'm sure I'll revive this tired trope soon.
