Never heard of that line. How is it misunderstood, it seems pretty clear at first sight.

In all fairness, the line is delivered by a comic character (Dick the Butcher), and most likely was intended as a laugh line.

So yes, one can argue that good comedy has that "germ" of truth. But the line is almost universally misinterpreted, for obvious reasons.

Now, you too, can be a bore at parties. :)
