Or alternatively early worm gets the bird.
Comment on It's really weird that early dinners are called "early bird specials"

An “early bird” is a very old idiom for someone who is up and productive early in the morning. See also “early bird gets the worm.”

That’s my point: going by the idiom, an early bord special would be a serving of worms 😁

Have you ever heard the story about the grasshopper and the octopus?
All summer long the grasshopper worked to gather food while the octopus played video games. Then winter came and the grasshopper died so the octopus took all of his food. Also he got a racecar.
