“When life gives you melons, buy a bra”

“If/When life gives you lemons, make lemonade” is an old saying. “If/When life gives you melons, you may/might be dyslexic” is a jocular variant that has been printed on many images.
 
“Melons” is slang for “large breasts.” “When life gives u lemons, wear a push-up bra… when life gives you melons you don’t need to” was posted on Twitter on February 25, 2010. “If life gives you melons, get a bra” was posted on Twitter on December 5, 2010. “If life gives you melons - get a good sports bra” was posted on Twitter on October 1, 2013.
     
“When life gives you melons, wear a low cut top” is a similar saying.

”@Nash_mikah: If life gives you melons, it’s likely that you’re dyslexic.” If life gives you melons, wear a sports bra when you’re running.
