Give it a name!

We all make mistakes, both big and small. But there are always opportunities in life where the smart ones learn to hide their mistakes by redirecting attention to something good (or at least something that looks good). For example, I feel most of the famous and most delicious recipes have been the result of a screw-up. Like when the chef added a little too much pepper in the chicken, they called it 'Hot Pepper Chicken', more ginger and they called it 'Ginger Chicken'. Well, for one, these are fairly easy instances to get out of and second, you cannot always be a smart-ass. The lucky ones get away with murder.


But, making excuses is great till the time someone somewhere catches your bluff. It's really embarrassing then. Not trying to be some kind of a wise man or something. I just came across this topic tonight while preparing dinner when I added too much ginger garlic paste in the chicken. I'll call it 'Pro Ginger Garlic Chicken'.

Since you wasted your precious time reading this crap, the least I can do is leave you with a thought -
'When life gives you lemons - you don't make lemonade; you sell the lemons at double the price, buy lemonade with the first half and keep the second.'


Update: This variation of 'When life gives you lemons' was my own creation and it provoked me to look for more such related interesting quotes. I could find these -
"When life gives you lemons, buy a lemonade stand and use the profits to buy a machine gun. Lets see if life makes the same mistake twice."
"When God gives you lemons, find a new God."
"When life gives you lemons, make grape juice. Then sit back and watch the world try to figure out how you did it."
"When life gives you lemons, throw them at mean people."
"When life gives you lemons, trade it for an apple or something."
"When life gives you lemons, squeeze the juice into a squirt gun and squirt it into someone's eye. It'll make you feel better."
"When life gives you lemons, throw them away! WHO THE FUCK gives lemons out? Mercury Sympathizers thats who!"
"When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Then give it to your enemies cause it'll be real shitty unless life gave you sugar too."
"When life gives you lemons, you should be use to it because you are a loser and you already have a shitload of them."
"When life gives you lemons, find someone who's life gives them fish & chips and enjoy."
"When life gives you lemons, gentically modify them and use your Super Lemons to destroy the world!"
"When life gives you lemons, rip said lemons in half and jam the wet ends into life's eyes. That'll teach the fucker."
"When life gives you lemons, sell them on e-bay."
"When life gives you lemons, ask for the receipt."
"When life hands you lemons, make lemonade and find someone else who life handed vodka to, and have a party."

P.S. I promise my future posts will definitely be more sensible.
