One man's meat, another man's gravy.

A nice twist on one mans meat, another man's poison. Where neither option is that bad. Invites thought , laughter and useful for pub banter.

Originated in the pubs of South London in the 1940s.
I don't know Bill, I don't know what he sees in her.
"One man's meat, another man's gravy."
Long pause...
"But which is better? Meat or gravy?"
"Exactly."

Cage man

Cage man. Much more primitive and aggressive than your typical cave man. Where a cave man has the freedom to roam in and out of his cave at his leisure, the cage man spends its life confined to a small cage. Very rarely will a cage man escape this torment. But when it does, it will unleash the type of hell a cave man could only dream of.
Man you you’re acting like a cage man

Old man wisdom

When a middle aged man offers up his advice to a 20 year old, but the 20 year old never ask for it in the first place, and it's annoying as crap.
*20 year old me on a construction site rolling up an electric chord*

Middle aged man - "That's not how you roll up a chord. Here, let me show you."

20 year old me - "Huh, that's funny, you're the third middle aged man to show me how to roll up a chord, and all three of you did it differently."

Middle aged man - "But my way is the correct way."

20 year old me - "That's what the other guys said. Old man wisdom at it's finest."
