Possibly stupid/genius question
Send me Fun Mail
Has anyone else ever noticed that the phrase "2 heads are better than one" sounds kind of odd?
I always say it "2 heads is better than one". I know that sounds weird too, purely because of language rules. But isn't it kind of a "(Having) 2 heads is better than (having) one" meaning?
I know it doesn't actually mean that you want to have 2 heads, although that would be sweet. But the normal phrasing seems to be saying that these 2 heads are better than this 1, for whatever reason.
Anyway, has anyone else ever had this thought? Do you say it like I do? Do I sound like a raving lunatic?
