People always say stuff like.

"If I only knew then what I know now." or
"Learn from the mistakes of others."

So let me hear it. Serious, stupid, funny or all of the above. Here's mine.


Never wrestle with a pig; you both get dirty and only the pig enjoys it!

Never have sex with a pig, you both get dirty and the pig doesn't enjoy it.

Always get married early in the morning. That way, if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted a whole day.

Do both. Take a couple hundred from your tax return (if you get one), and stick it in a IRA each year.

Exactly. All I meant was use your pre tax dollars to max out your 401(k) cause it's easiest.

Even if you hate school, go to college.

Join the military. You'll grow up, get in shape, and you'll get to see the world. If you don't like it, don't re-up. And remember: in the navy, you always get hot meals and a bed.

Even if you can't get laid, don't rush to marry the first girl you bed.

Two tips for raising your kids: smother them with attention, and keep them busy.

Pick a job you love doing, and you'll never work a day in your life.

I couldn't disagree with you more. I hate school and I'm so damn glad I never went to college. I wouldn't even have gone to high school if my parents hadn't forced me. Flame away.

tell that girl you're in love with how you really feel. You see her every f#cking day and she smiles at you. I know it's easier said than done.. but JUST don't be a pussy. Seriously! You'll thank me later.

never date a psychology major.

If you're a guy, Never, NEVER, NEVER ever be the first one to say "I Love You" the first time. Because if you do, that means you love them more then they love you, and that will make them uncomfortable - therefore causing the tension that will cause the breakup. - My friend Brooks tried to tell me, but I didn't listen -

No matter how much you think your high school girlfriend is your soul mate, break up with her when you go to college.

You obviously haven't seen Can't Hardle Wait recently. Ethan Embry will swoop in and get her, and then you'll waste your life away at a car wash until you get fired when some incriminating pictures show up.

Never do the psych major, but of even higher prominence, never, ever, get involved with anyone remotely connected to theater. Sure, psych majors are all psych cases trying to figure themselves out, but theater dorks are 100% drama queens, and I take psychotic over that in a heartbeat.


Don't fart while getting head, its just rude.

Don't speed test your girlfriend's car while shitfaced---stupid idea on a couple of different levels.

As much fun as it sounds, don't get heavy into crack.

As a psych major, I'd just like to refute that we're all cases trying to figure ourselves out. I'm not. Then again, I'm the most half-assed psych major ever... Sample size sufficient?

InchoateHand
03-13-2005, 02:39 PM
Yeah, the most balanced person I know, currently doing case management and moonlighting as my girlfriend was a psych/human services major. But she is also reading over my shoulder, so take that for what its worth. As a general rule though...

dis seems to be the most important advice thus far.

I see no reason to refuse any female looking for action. I'm sure we will all be in our death beds wishing we had taken more on. Plus it is the easiest thing to get in life as there are always those more desperate than yourself. Just get over yourself and lower your standards you find out its all good. And you might run into a nice person along the way.

The people you work with are not your friends.

Don't speak unless spoken to. (When a friend or realtive is talking about personal matters)

Life is pain. Anyone who tells you differently is selling something.

Here's two...

1) Make sure that your spouse and children know that they matter to you.

2) Don't smoke dope when your high. You don't get no higher, just lower on dope. /images/graemlins/smirk.gif
