I think there has been a total lack of understanding here. Pot kettle etc.
The original phrase comes from a 1620 translation of the Cervantes novel Don Quixote: “You are like what is said that the frying-pan said to the kettle, 'Avaunt, black-brows'.” Q: Avaunt? A: It's a now-archaic expression meaning “go away”.
