My wife always gets her sayings mixed up. Instead of "going hog-wild" she says "going hog-WIRE" and then wonders why I am giggling at her.

One day she was trying to illustrate why something was so difficult like "pulling teeth" and said something about going to the dentist and yanking out molars and had the whole thing messed up, so:

Here is a game in which you can combine 2 or more sayings to make absolutely no sense!

If you can, use the person's second saying as your FIRST saying...

For example:

Don't count your chickens until you walk a mile in their moccasins...

Don't judge your neighbor until you rub another man's rhubarb...

ok so the last saying was (in its entirety), "Never rub another man's rhubarb.".

A response could be:

Never rub your chickens until they hatch.

or

Never rub your own horn (which I like better)...

The response would take the second saying "Don't toot your own horn" and would start something like:

Don't toot _________________(fill in the blank with the second half of another saying).

Nothing like answering my own riddles!
