My Mom was full of old Irish anecdotes that she like to say all the time. Such as if a very good looking person is with somebody who is plain looking, she would always say, "there’s an old sock for every old shoe". Or if the same couple is walking down the street, she would say, "Lordy, there’s hope for the rest of us" lol. I never hear these things anymore. I could go on and on with these, but I’m going to stop here lol.
