"Too many cooks spoil the broth."

It's getting tiresome going over the same point that we've known for decades, if not centuries.

Or should I say, it's getting tiresome having to explain and/or defend a position that's so obviously correct, you'd have to close your eyes, put your fingers in your ears and go "whaaa whaaaa whaaa" till you're blue in the face not to see it.




"Many hands make light work"


"light", but not "good".


I am not sure you should take proverbs so literally (or take it as canon for that matter).

By the original proverb fewer cooks only make the broth not-spoiled, not necessarily good either :P


I up-voted for the lolz. But deep down I hate you and your reductive reasoning.
