the more things change, the more they stay the same

Oh noes! The quotation of doom!

Sometimes it is true, but not always. You can often see similarities between two situations you've been through. Not only this, but it also applies to people mostly. As much as they claim they've changed, as much they're the same as before.
People change, but there always a part of them which is never gonna change. It's always gonna be the same.

In most situations not true, But on occasion it makes perfect sense.

Sometimes this statement is true and sometimes it's not. In general, it depends on what you are talking about and what change is taking place. And sure, if you examine anything closely enough, you could say the statement applies to everything. But in closing, I think it's just one of those phrases people use to describe a situation where nothing is working. Situations where nothing is working or where little is being done is where this statement might come into play.

Really, either things change and aren't the same or they just stay the same. Obviously if "the more things change, the more they stay the same," then not much, if anything, is changing at all.

I think it's a load of ******* and the English language and language in general was made to make life easier so why we have to come up with these stupid sayings that have no real answer and go absoluteley no where is beyond me.

I'd like to punch whoever came up with this and just about every other saying in the face.

I already knew this. Which is why i added on language in general. Because i knew someone would point out English isn't exactly the easiest language ever to master. However it's also got the most words of any language.

Which means you shouldn't need to talk utter ******* to make a point.

No i dont. When a tree changes does it become the same more? No, it grows into a big tree...
