I always liked "Leave a penny, drop a pound." A very accurate rendering of the activity, when using a public loo cost a penny in London.
Just so my first note on your blog is not entirely toilet-based humour, I have to say that some people consider "To be honest, ..." a useless phrase, but I actually like it. I think there is a general layer of polite deception in many conversations, and this escapes that layer a little.
I also like "It is what it is." I'd be hard pressed to get more redundant than that, yet I like it.
3 comments:
"you can't have your cake and eat it too."
"I could care less."
And of course, in light of the Iraqi quagmire:
"Mission accomplished"
"We don't want the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud"
and
"I say, 'Bring it on.'"

Take a dump...should be leave a dump!
