Too Many Cooks Spoil The Broth

When someone or a group of people (usually in a working environment)
try to tell you how you are supposed to do YOUR job when

they are incapable of doing your job, especially THEY feel

the need to dish out some oppression to those who are

declassé in their own opinion, or doing it for shits and

giggles just to make misery. Even worse when a

one trick pony wage slave acts like a

big headed twat toward anyone who pushes a broom

or mops the floor.

Culminates into too many chiefs and not enough Indians
helping to make one's fuck up into a Fuck Up of the First Order
while being in total denial of doing so.

When too many cooks spoil the broth, only a lot of blame is served.

And knowing some folks, they don't want that portion.

The Internet is always accessed by a crook and a fool.

A modern adaptation of the “crook and fool” proverb, emphasizing that anyone connecting to the internet is simultaneously a potential target of exploitation (the fool) and potentially a predator themselves (the crook). It’s a reminder that the internet is not a neutral space: it is structured to enable both scams and predation. The saying warns against assuming good faith online and urges constant awareness that in any interaction, one might be playing either role—or both.

"The Internet is always accessed by a crook and a fool."

Every day a crook and a fool leave home. When the two meet, someone makes a deal.

A cynical proverb describing the mechanics of exploitation: the world is full of people willing to cheat (crooks) and people ready to be cheated (fools). When they encounter each other, a transaction happens—a scam, a bad bargain, a manipulation—where the crook wins and the fool loses. The saying suggests that such encounters are inevitable, not exceptional, and that vigilance is required to avoid being the fool. It is often invoked to warn against trusting too easily, especially in business, politics, or online interactions.

"Every day a crook and a fool leave home. When the two meet, someone makes a deal." Example: “He thought the crypto investment opportunity was real. His friend quoted the old saying: every day a crook and a fool leave home. When the two meet, someone makes a deal.”
