I had a calculus teacher in high school who thought he was so cool teaching us that " when you assume, all you do is make an A$$ out of U and ME." It was funny the first time but he did it OVER and OVER and OVER. So when I showed up on Wednesday after skipping Monday and Tuesday to work and he asked me if it was safe to assume that I at least had the weekends home work to turn in, I replied, "How did that sayng go? when you assume you make an a$$ out of yourself?"
