 mixed clichesHere's one to try. The first person starts with a cliche or proverb, such as "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush."
The second replies, "You mean, A bird in the hand is worth half a dozen of the other." The next person picks up on "six of one and half a dozen of the other," and says... Six of one can break my bones, but words can never hurt me. |
