Ok maybe I've been looking at this too long but I'm seeing quite a lot in this rhebus.
In addition to the obvious proverb about crying over spilt milk
1. Woe is me
Because of
The wah sound for cry but with an O made from the head
And the
I comes from the left closed eye on the milk carton. If you look at it sideways, it looks like a face with one eye open and one shut (more later) and with a squiggle for a mouth. The mouth can either be an s or a 5. The me comes from the actual me
- Next I think
There is the phrase sleeping with one eye open because of the face on the milk carton.
- This is more nebulous but I think the idea of
A black cloud hanging over me
because of
Something that looks like a black cloud above the person's head
- Also, I haven't made it out yet, but I see the following
Let ters
Such as
S shape in whole of the tongue
And
2 Ls or 2 7s inside the tongue
And
W from the eyes of the main face because the eyes look like Us upside down and two of them = double U
And
There also appears to be a large X in the right hand side of the figure
And
There also send to be a face in the upper left that looks like Mao but I'm going to chalk this up to sleep dep lol.
So in summary, I'm seeing those phrases and these
Letters W L L X S I S
As well as lots of other
Letters if I really squint, including a C
So if we flip the
W upside down we could get an M which is a Roman numeral along with L, X, I, and S if we interpret as 5 and convert to V.
I'm not totally positive but there could be another phrase:
20,000 leagues under the sea? And maybe even sleeping with the fishes?
Am I close with any of this??
Addition/Edit:
Also it occurs to me that the title refers to the eyes on the
Bull on the milk carton both of which are open
I think one of the hidden sayings is either
Sitting Bull
Or
Bullseye
