The Wee Democracy

23 life lessons

behold, i present to you things i've learned in life - in no particular order:

1 - if you don't pull your socks all the way up, your feet stay warmer

2 - don't put sugar into your plain cheerios. suffer with your boring ass choice, because the extra sugar just gives you pimples.

3 - go to the bathroom when you can. if you wait to go to a cleaner bathroom, the line is always impossibly long or the bathroom is being cleaned.

4 - if you're watching a game and the team is doing poorly, turn it off. either they'll lose and you'll get pissed, or they'll turn it around because you stopped watching.

5 - anticipation is ten times greater than satisfaction.

6 - the day you dress down because you've given up on running into the girl you dressed up for four days in a row because you hoped to run into her, you'll run into her, and she'll make a comment about your shabby attire.

7 - your mom's advice, whether you like it or not, is usually right.

8 - when you think you want a tattoo, wait a year, then see if you'd still like the same design. if not, don't ever get a tattoo

9 - 'requiem for a dream' is the bleakest movie ever.

10 - just ask your sister what she wants for christmas. the disappointment of having no surprise is better than the disappointment of shitty presents.

11 - your parents do indeed love your older sibling more than you

12 - don't make mix cd's for someone you only kinda like. they're most likely going to piss you off right before or right after you make it for them, rendering them unworthy of said greatness

13 - sometimes you CAN judge a book by it's cover. books with covers that appeal to you are generally books you like, e.g. burn collector

14 - if you buy three cd's of bands you've never heard of, you'll like at least one of them enough to want to introduce it to your friends, and be their musical hero.

15 - dating shows can raise your self esteem while making you feel desperately lonely at the same time, which makes them one of the more emotionally involving television genres out there right now.

16 - There is at least one hot news reporter in every city.

17 - people are not always laughing with you.

18 - will and grace is the worst show on television. ever.

19 - tequila is the party crasher of alcohol. everybody's happy he shows up, but eventually he causes enough trouble so that the gastrointestinal police come in and fuck up the party.

20 - touching the outside of the plane as you board will save your life.

21 - birthdays do indeed get more depressing as you get older. but you can drink more, and negate that effect.

22 - dogs are better than cats.

23 - when a stranger compliments you, that is the best feeling in the world.
