Question

Help answer this question below.

Someone at work said to me the other day, "She has the personality of a brick." It occurred to me that bricks get laid, regularly. Do you know any other sayings that make no sense?

    Greatest thing since Sliced Bread. What is so great about sliced bread? You take bread, ya get a knife, and ya slice it. Big whoop. The Pyramids, the Great Wall of China, even a frickin' Lava Lamp, to me, is greater than sliced bread.

    I got this from a friend the other day and it sorta goes with the question (both what they do and say)


    1. People who point at their wrist while asking for the time.... I know where my watch is pal, where the f*** is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the toilet is?

    2. People who are willing to get off their ass to search the entire room for the tv remote because they refuse to walk to the tv and change the channel manually.

    3. When people say "Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too". Damn right! What good is a cake if you can't eat it?

    4. When people say "it's always the last place you look". Of course it is.
    Why would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they? Gonna Kick their ass!

    5. When people say while watching a film "did you see that?". No Loser, I paid $12 to come to the cinema and stare at the god blessed floor.

    6. People who ask "Can I ask you a question?".... Didn't really give me a choice there, did ya sunshine?

    7. When something is 'new and improved!'. Which is it?
    If it's new, then there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there must have been something before it.

    8. When people say "life is short". What the hell?? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever f***ing does!! What can you do that's longer?

    9. When you are waiting for the bus and someone asks "Has the bus come yet?". If the bus came would I be standing here, dumbass?

    Well, typically bricks only get laid once. After that, the weight piles on, the surface wears thin, and everything starts to crumble slowly. Their big claim to fame is ready availability and low cost of ownership.

    So I think that one lacks sufficient irony for your otherwise wonderful question :)

    "This country is goin' down the tubes"

    What tubes? Where are these tubes? And where do they go? And why is there more than one tube? What, does every state need it's own tube now? One tube is all ya need. But a tube that big! Someone wouldda seen it by now. They'd say "Hey, Joey, Watch out! Big fu**in' tube, right there!" Ya never hear that. Ya know why? NO TUBES! We ain't got tube one! We are essentially tubeless.

    But do you need personality to get laid? It strikes me that all you need is willingness and some women use sex as a substitute for personality.

    Makes sense to ME if the person meant "she has no personality", since bricks don't have personalities.

    You just associated what was said out of context.

    It's funny because it's a CLEVER association, but you purposely misconstrued the meaning to make a point. You could have proposed the same idea without stipulating the speaker "didn't make sense".

    The saying "He/She is no better than a suck egg dog". This may be a southern saying, but I never could understand that. From what I understand, a suck egg dog would take eggs from the hen houses on farms and suck the eggs. Farmers hated them and would usually put them down.

    "I go to the 8:30 church service instead of the 11:00 church service because the message is fresh." These were the words of the career theif that stole from my X-cult. The reality was he wanted to be at the 8:30 service so he could be in charge of the offering plate. The above qoute was his excuse for going to the 8:30 service instead of the 11:00 service with the rest of his friends. I can't believe how stupid they all were.

    It is not a saying but a general expression which most of us use, me too.
    "Guess what? .. " and rather than waiting and giving a chance to guess we blurt out the stuff which we want to tell. If guessing was not at all a part of the conversation then why use "Guess what?". *Bleh!*
