Malaphor: Noun: An error in which two similar figures of speech are merged, producing an often nonsensical result.
Life is full of people giving advice and although we should always listen, we should take care to only follow good advice.
What I love (and hate!) about proverbs is that they are nearly always used just after something bad has happened and are therefore often of little or no help at the time!

Each work features 5 Malaphors (mixed up proverbs) each in a color from one of 15 palettes.
There are 5 background colors:
Black - 80% chance
Dark Red - 5% chance
Dark Green - 5% chance
Dark Blue - 5% chance
Dark Gray - 5% chance

Additional variety is possible for amount of text and fluctuation amount.

Key strokes are:

"S" - Save the image
"1" or "Spacebar" - Make the animation start if not already looping
"2" - Move the animation on a frame
"3" - Stop the animation
"4" - Randomise the text colors (must be looping or can press "2" to move to next frame"
