Does this qualify as a Con-verb?

Question

Or not??? I can't take the credit, I read it on a billboard today.

Patience is a virtue

That holds a lot of wait

Answer 1

Yes, patience is a virtue

wait awhile and

you'll know...patience

is for the other guy!

Answer 2

But it is cute.

Answer 3

great wordplay!

Answer 4

Reminds me of a contact on here who shared a saying his grandfather taught him, "Patience is a virgin."

I loved that! Maybe THAT'S a con-verb!!!!

ma

Answer 5

I would call it wordplay, rather than a Con-verb.

Answer 6

That is a proverb, with a positive message. The Con of this Pro would be something like:

Patience is virtue

as long as I'm first in line

Answer 7

Thanks, ma -you beat me to it! Grandpa's probably looking down & laughing right now.

Yeah, I don't think this qualifies as a con-verb so much as a play on words.  

Answer 8

Verbs that originate from

jail cells

are con-verbs.

they are typically obscene.

Answer 9

Sign in an ER waiting area - "Have Patients, While U Wait" not anything remotely like "shoes repaired while u wait"

To have patience is all very well,

but I don't have time for that sort of attitude.

Frankly it sickens me.
