Seemed like a good idea at the time

a valid excuse for a really bad mistake, can only be used once

Wife: I cant believe you had sex with those two strippers, then you had the nerve to bring them to the house and make them breakfast.

Husband: Seemed like a good idea at the time.

Wife: I bet it did, it was a bad idea and you are a ass hole for thing it was

Husband: Well, that did not cross my mind at the time. I never banged to hot bitches at the same time and two bitches at the same time is always a good idea.

Rumored to be what Bill Clinton said when asked about Monica Lewinsky during his 1999 impeachment hearing.

Can't rain all the time

A phrase that is spoken in the movie The Crow. It means that even in the darkest of times light will eventually find its way through. Usually spoken in an optimistic tone of voice to shed some hope on something/someone.

Don't do the crime, if you can't do the time.

A "hip" expression of the 1960's-70's that advises you not to do something risky unless you are willing and able to accept the full weight of the consequences.

Ironically popularized by the theme song to the TV show "Baretta" starring Robert Blake.

Fred: "I'm losing my license for drunk driving..."

Charlie: "Quit complaining! You know what they tell you: 'don't do the crime if you can't do the time!'"
