Thought I'd try this one as a limerick.
Fox walked past a vineyard one day
Quenched his thirst, he thought that they may
Hard to reach though he try
Found out they're too high
Said the grapes are too sour anyway.
'It's easy to despise what you can't get'
The good old 'sour grapes' terminology. Who hasn't had it before. I done it myself a few times. Sometimes it helps you cope with the fact that you ain't going to get a hold of it. Most of the time though, it's just pure bitterness and it's not like they have feelings to hurt.
