Antiproverbial: Aphorisms Redefined

What if one swallow does make a summer? [Beefy ]

It would be quite a potion for sure [snood]

You'd put all your eggs in two baskets [Beefy ]

Subject to the size of the baskets and the number of eggs [snood]

Ican make a light work with just one hand [Beefy ]

Click! with my finger on the switch [snood]

It's my spilt milk, and I'll cry if I want to [Beefy ]

Cry if I want to, cry if I want to [snood]

Huzzah! Huzzah! I can sing my own laurels! [archaeopteryx]

Self-praise is all the praise I need [Beefy ]

You can't put a stitch in time so [snood]

The Nine will hang, I fear [Beefy ]

And what's that they're teaching that old dog? [snood]

Grandmother, here's how to suck eggs. [baoloa]

I made an omelette without breaking them [Beefy ]

And I certainly didn't count on any of them hatching. [archaeopteryx]
