The first hundred years are the hardest proverb
A jocular phrase usually used as false consolation, telling someone that they will definitely not encounter any difficulties or problems after they are 100 years old.
A: Don't worry, the first hundred years are the hardest. B: If you're here just to console me falsely, you'd better get out!
I thought he was trying to console me until he said "The first hundred years are the hardest."
The origin of this proverb is not clear.
Do you see anything wrong?
Daughter: So I really want all my friends to have a great time. I was thinking it would be a good idea to have some candy out on the tables for people to snack on.
Mother: Well, if you want them to really enjoy themselves, candy is dandy but liquor is quicker.
