I had never heard it before my friend said that and I certainly never saw it in the forums. Even with that, your point would be what ?

It’s a classic joke and the way it was used here left you not expecting that certain punch line.
As Steve said posted a few times on the forums :up:

It's there. Have I ever mentioned that I consider my memory to be a curse, not a blessing?

My point would be to tweak Jim, who is my best friend in the whole world.

Again, your point is what ? Steve, who cares if that saying is in the forum ? Do you by chance have a copyright to it ? As far as Jim, no one took a shot at him. Why would anyone want to ? Jim gave good and reasonable advice. We made a joke. Simple as that.

I said it before Steve, if you want to be a school marm, leave it at home. We are not here to be lectured to by you.

You're taking this way too seriously. Jim did not give reasonable advice. He made a joke and Steves reply was a joke to Jim as well.

Jim probably posted that immediately upon his arrival home.
(Drunk posting)

Good joke though. But you can use a different strategy to get past a check point by peeling the label off of your beer bottle and stick it to your forehead and just tell the inspecting officer that you're on the patch and have no need to drink.

All of the bus passengers are still wondering how they ended up in Surrey.
