You know the ‘they’ from “You know what they say…”

‘They’ sure say a lot.

Let’s discuss.

Things ‘they’ say:

Out of sight out of mind.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

So which is it? Does anyone know? Apparently ‘they’ don’t.

Life’s a bitch.

Life’s a bowl of cherries.

Do ‘they’ just cover their ass with these cliches? How does this work?

Stick it in your ear.

Stick it where they son don’t shine.

Apparently ‘they’ have a thing about sticking it but ‘they’ can’t make up their mind where.

Money is the root of all evil.

Money makes the world go around.

Money can’t buy you happiness.

Okay, so if money is the root of all evil, then it stands to reason that money can’t buy you happiness. However, if money makes the world go around, then one would reason that it could also buy you happiness and that it is NOT the root of all evil. Again, ‘they’ confuse me.

Laughter is good for the soul.

‘They’ definitely got this one right.
