To Coin a Phrase

To Coin a Phrase

“You’re making a mountain out of a molehill.” I said. “It’s just a storm in a tea-cup”

“It may not be important to you,” he replied, “but sometimes you just have to have your say”

And this from a guy who never took sides in an argument -- ever.

“I agree.” I told him. “You need to choose your battles.”

“There you go again!” he yelped, exasperated “You just cannot help yourself, can you?”

“Now what’s rattled your cage?” I asked, baffled by his agitation.

“Cliches.” he said. “You always talk in clichés!”

That took the wind out of my sails.
