A watched clock never boils. Oops. A watched pot never boils. I've never known a pot to boil. OK, what's in the pot never boils? If I watch a discarded cigarette, it won't set fire to grass? What if I peek thru my fingers with 1 eye? Can a person angry with me hassle me by staring at my pots while I attempt to cook?
A broken clock is always right twice a day. Broken sometimes means nonfunctioning & sometimes malfunctioning. So a broken clock might be running & might never be "right". A stopped clock is always right twice a day. Simply showing a time that eventually must come about isn't being right any more than a painting of a clock actually indicates what time it is or someone's 14,233rd guess as to the town or city I live in being right.
The exception proves the rule. There was a time this made sense. What it meant was the exception tests the rule. People repeat this now meaning the exception shows the rule is true/accurate/good which is absurd.
Head over heels (in love). Who doesn't have their head over their heels nearly every second of their waking time???
I'll keep an eye out for them. He caught my eye. I'm keeping an eye on you. I only have eyes for you.
Is the glass half full or half empty? No matter how much people fool themselves, they mean the same thing, no more, no less.
Enter your PIN number. Enter my personal identification number number???
Get your ducks in a row. I've actually tried this. It's like herding cats. And they won't stay angry for long.
It's like being stuck in quicksand. Well, it's very easy to get out of quicksand. Maybe it should mean it's like being ignorant.
Don't bite the hand that feeds you. Sometimes this is wise & sometimes it means you're to be a meek sheep.
The straw that broke the camel's back. I'd like to see this if not for the cruelty to the camel.
I'm just doing my job. The root of much evil.
I just can't stand it! 99.999% of the time these people are standing it.
I'll knock your head off! I'd like to see this if not for all the blood & ... you know ... the cruelty.
It's always darkest just before dawn. Have these people ever been up before dawn?
Things will look better in the morning. That never worked for me.
This hurts me more than it hurts you. WHACK!!!
Would you like flies with that? IF I wanted FLIES, I would've ORDERED FLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your coat, Sir? No, it's not my coat. I borrowed it from James Dean but keep your paws off it anyway!
Don't put all your eggs in 1 biscuit.
