Re: Favorite saying ever!!!!!! "the carpet doesn't match the drapes"
I don't know why, but for some reason I always say it wrong and say the "curtains don't match the drapes"
Which makes no sense.

i enjoy, "Cancel my subscription; I'm done with your issues."
All these sayings crack me up...as my Cubana mother can NEVER get a saying right. She has been known to say, "Don't pull the wolf over my eyes."

Why doesn't it make sense? It means the exact same thing. You're just saying it in a different order.

I think there is also a saying about the "cuffs and collars" not matching as well.

not really...b/c curtains and drapes are the same thing
so she is effectively saying the curtains don't match the curtains.
I only know this b/c I SAY THIS all the time, wrong, in my head...and have to consciously correct myself all the time.

The British will often ask Blondes "do the cuffs match the collar"
No one seems to mind talking about the color of their short and curlies.

Just because there's snow on the roof doesn't mean there isn't a fire in the furnace...  Wait- is that right?

Re: Favorite saying ever!!!!!! "the carpet doesn't match the drapes"
I was going to make this saying into a Halloween costume!! I was going to make a skirt out of carpet and sew curtains onto a wig so that they hung down and covered my chest... but I told DH and my best friend and they totally didn't 'get' it and said they never heard the expression before. So funny that you posted this!!!
