Annyone good at sayings?

Post by Mudkest »

Here's the deal, someone accused me of sending short e-mails, but he's doing the same thing himself. I know there's a saying for that, but I can't remember it, I know the dutch saying, but that doesn't really help :p

Annyway, in dutch it is "de pot verwijt de ketel" if there's anny fellow dutch-man that can help :p

hope annyone can help me out :)

If one wishes to be a hypocrite, one should move to London town, for their you will blend in perfectly. If however you are still considered a hypocrite then you've obviously taken a career in politics... and non can save you...

Not what your looking for but still quite true even after almost a century... :)
