The pen is mightier than the sword

Another way of saying that theres a lot of bullshit in history books to support the agendas of a group in power to make that group look more like a clear victor without any negative qualities, and make another group look like they met their downfall. In reality, questioning what the pen writes is enough to make you wonder if there are any winners at all with something like a war.
The pen is mightier than the sword is what the same people you need swords for in the first place tell you.

Better Cereal in the Fridge than milk in the Pantry

This phrase, coined by one Mark Hymen Able, is used in lieu of “things could be worse”. I seek no bias, i in fact think it’s Mediocre at best so what I’m looking for is a honest voting from unrelated third parties as to if this phrase is in fact witty and eloquent, as it’s author might suggest
I paid extra and took the afternoon off work to catch the earlier flight home to Perth. Upon arrival and check in we were informed flight was delayed 3 hours and we weren’t allowed to leave the terminal as it was a domestic stopover on an international flight so we had to go through customs so could not exit. I don’t have aids though so better cereal in the fridge than milk in the pantry.

Deader than a Kennedy

The epitome of death. A profound state of deadness, where death is thorough and is firmly established.

To ascertain death at the top-most level, surpassing even a Kennedy's seemingly effortless ability to achieve it.

Exponentially Dead.
Deader than fried chicken.
Pretty freaking dead.
Can pertain to a person literally or figuratively to their career, chance of success, etc.; or to a place where no one goes; or to a thought or idea with no chance of acceptance.
"This place is Deader than a Kennedy"
"Probably because it's a shopping mall."

"Do you think Gruden will ever coach again?"
"No, he's Deader than a Kennedy to the NFL!"

tighter than bark on a tree

This phrase can describe many people we have the pleasure of knowing and have to deal with on a daily basis;
Such as, stingy ass pricks who wouldn't loan you a dollar to save your life AND EVEN IF THEY DID... there would be 70% interest.
Aswell as "no bullshit" parents who force their kids (and other people's kids) to act like good fucking Catholic school boys with consequences of "a knuckle sandwich" and or "tanning your hide" in tandem with threats like "If you keep it up like this, you won't be able to sit for a week!" or " You'd better watch your smart mouth buster!"
"Damn Daniel, your dad is tighter than bark on a tree!"

"You don't even know the half of it, Billy."
