Another great Entry by Icy 
This is another informative and entertaining read. I'd just like to pick you up on repetition of 'wrong' and query whether there's any quotes out there on these ...I think the film Grease carries one.
Keep writing

Thanks Opti! 
Grease quote? Was it this one:
Frenchy: "Men are rats! Worse then that! They’re fleas on rats! Worse then that! They’re amoebas on fleas on rats! They’re too low for even the dogs to bite. The only man a girl can trust is her daddy."
If so, it's probably the wrong sort of amoeba for this entry (I know, I'm very fussy)
As to the repetition, it's in the phrase "caught in the wrong place at the wrong time", so I'm sure it's OK like that.

Yes you are correct about the quote and I won't be offended if you don't include it.
Are we supposed to use phrases?

Icy North Posted Jan 7, 2009
They're part of the English language, so I'd say yes, we can use them.
Cliches, on the other hand, should be avoided like the plague.

Well done on finding that quote, Icy. I've been searching for it for the past half-hour, using a wrong keyword.
