Perverting cliches is fun, cliches suck by their nature and twisting them tends to make them funny and memorable. "The monkey is in their court" is classic, I just might use that one.

The True Irony of Alanis Morissette

ironic adj. 1. characterized by often poignant difference or incongruity between what is expected and what actually is; "it was ironical that the well-planned scheme failed so completely"

Source: WordNet ® 1.6, © 1997 Princeton University

  Alanis Morissette sings a song titled "Ironic" on her album Jagged Little Pill. In this song she offers vignettes of situations where life is going well and then suddenly takes a turn for the worse. She exclaims, "Isn't it ironic...don't you think?" My answer: "No!" I have critically analyzed her lyrics and have found only 1 ironic episode therein. Ultimately I have discovered that she has no clue as to what irony really is.

Then I'd order the army to attack France, mostly to boost my popularity, but secondly to get more cheese for the DNRC.

LMAO

Poorman works at a certain location that just implemented a Dilbert World project. Management drones had too much time on their hands so they labeled everything in the building, and outlined objects' location. Literally. Then they sent around the Nazis with clipboards to document NON-COMPLIANCE. A calendar on the wall was not labeled and its location outlined. Write-up! Some guy kept his pen on a shelf WITHOUT A LABEL (horrors)! Another write-up!

Poorman actually works for another company so he felt free to find some of those little labels lying around and make PROPER USE OF THEM. So now his hat is labeled "front" on the bill, and his shoes read "right" and "left".

The compliance Nazis weren't amused, but since he works for someone else under contract, they can't touch him.
