Hoisted by his own petard. It's just so elegant a way to say that hubris will always be a down fall. What other anachronistic phrases do you all enjoy? Okay well thanks for reading!

This is a metaphor, a Christian allegory. The fact that I have to explain to you that Jesus is the Warthog, and the Banana is drepanocytosis is just embarrassing for you.

I've been using "talk to the hand, because the face ain't listening" a lot, with a finger wave added in for good measure. Got me out of a speeding ticket this morning FYI

In relating the circumstances which have led to my confinement within this refuge for the demented, I am aware that my present position will create a natural doubt of the authenticity of my narrative.

Kiss my grits is another good one. I like to say it when I'm standing up and I'll stomp my foot down in the middle of this phrase for extra emphasis.

I've been using "FACE!" a lot lately. Like, I'll go to McDonald's and my burgers come out and I put my hand in the cashier's face and shout "face!" and run out the door. I've already paid for the burgers, of course, but I'm sure the cashier is plenty put in her place.
