Confucius Says...
"Man who farts in church sits in own pew."
"He who sleep on bed of nails is holy man."
"Crowded elevator smells different to midget."
"Man who sit on hot stove will rise again."
"Man who sit on tack get point."
"Man who jumps off cliff, jumps to conclusion."
"Man who lives in glass house should change in basement."
"He who stick head in open window get pane in neck."
"If you turn oriental around, he become disoriented."
"Man who sneezes without tissue takes matters into own hands."
"Man who tell one too many lightbulb jokes soon burn out."
"Man who run in front of car, get tired. Man who run behind car, get
exhausted."
"Man who put head on railroad track to listen for train likely to end up
with splitting headache."
"Man with one chopstick go hungry."
"War does not determine who's right. War determines who's left."
"Man who drive like hell, bound to get there."
"Man who drop watch in toilet have shitty time."
hahaa, even though i dont really have exams, well, not technically. mingying shared this prayer with me. and it's more meaningful than err "help me lord, amen" prayers (:
