I'm sure everyone understand the meaning behind the phrase "The pot calling the kettle black", right? But in case you don't...

The phrase "Pot calling the kettle black" is an idiom, used to accuse another speaker of hypocrisy, in that the speaker disparages the subject in a way that could equally be applied to him or her. In former times cast iron pots and kettles were quickly blackened from the soot of the fire. If personified into animate objects, the pot would then be hypocritical to insult the kettle's colour.

- From Wikipedia.

It's quite hilarious if you ask me.

Oh well, I'm not going to elaborate on the matter. So... Yeah... Enjoy the suspense.

CheerZ~
