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.

Hillbilly kid 1: I’m 18 I’m practically old enough to drink can’t I have a beer?

Hillbilly dad: I don’t give a Curly Short Ones how old you are. I’m not going to prison just so you can drink some glorified horse piss! No beer for you! It’s like the apple juice of alcohols anyway what kind of lightweight sissy drinks beer?

There are two meanings- one suggests positive, peaceful and proactive approach to potential conflicts-
The other is to eliminate any potential future problems before they have a chance to become one.
The best advice I can give is- live your life as strife-free as possible by avoiding any conflict. The best way to defeat an enemy is to ensure they never become one.
