Ironies in Life!

I recently received a forward titled ‘Dilbert’s one liners’. Normally, most forwarded emails are a big bore that are full of advice dished out by those who are incapable of following their own! But this one was different. It was refreshingly witty and had no bogus claims of bestowing great luck if was forwarded to hundred others. Truth that is definitely stranger than fiction was explicitly spelled out with divine simplicity. I have enlisted some of them which tickled me while the rest left me appreciating the author’s mental facilities.

  • When everything comes your way you're in the wrong lane.
  • The light at the end of the tunnel may be an incoming train.
  • Born free, taxed to death.
  • Everyone has a photographic memory, some just don't have film.
  • Smile, it makes people wonder what you are thinking.
  • The trouble with being punctual is that no one is there to appreciate it.
  • In a country of free speech, why are there phone bills?
  • Hot glass looks same as cold glass. - Cunino's Law of Burnt Fingers
  • In order to get a Loan, you first need to prove that you don't need it.
  • The cigarette does the smoking you are just the sucker.
  • Someday is not a day of the week
  • Whenever I find the key to success, someone changes the lock.
  • Alcohol doesn't solve any problems, but if you think again, neither does Milk.

And my all time FAVORITE

  • All the desirable things in life are either illegal, expensive, fattening or in love with someone else

what a nice way to epress the realities of preacihng forwards and the equally irritating ones to be forwarded with a tag of fear blackmail
and the few you liked and wrote are real eye openers about reality
thanks for your eye openers
