# Yes.
10 intarnetz to you. I like when jokey idioms we think are mined out yield tittersomeness. I'd put that one in the shoemenders category. You know, the one where we find 'Time wounds all heels. I will mend your wayward soles.' Etc. Ambigous phonemes for the win.

about Hume shooting himself in the foot with his own fork.

# Crikey
You must be a philosopher, no? I could be wrong, as I base this on induction only. Which Hume said was all there was. But at which conclusion he didn't arrive by induction. So his fork-in-the-road bifurcation of possibilities into inductive and valid, or non-inductive and for the fires of sophistry and illusion, was untenable by his own lights. So he shot himself in the foot with his own fork.
