Share your wisdom!

[ShadowKatt]

We all have little bits of wisdom, from "A Stitch in time saves nine" to "Red barrels explode". The defining grade for wisdom is its truthfulness, its practicality, and how widely it's spread, since wisdom is best when shared. So share your bits of wisdom you've discovered in your life!

My own personal bit of wisdom is Nothing good comes from when the earth and sky meet(Which is lightning, tornadoes, hurricanes, or meteors).

Your turn!

"Hot metal gets hot, and don't eat the soap."

This sounds weird, but this was the first advice I was given in my career as a barista. It's perfect sense too: hot metal objects are the top cause of serious burns in the coffeeshop, and the soap is usually really bad for you; even touching it with wet hands can get it into your system.

Popcorn then butter. If you do it the other way there is fire and angry managers, I am glad I am no longer at the movie theater.

If it looks like a dead body it probably isn't a good idea to eat it, I learned that lesson a few trips to the bathroom to late.

"Be nice to the people you meet on your way up to success. You'll meet them again on the way down"

Reminds me of a quote I read... "Keep your words soft and tender, for tomorrow you may have to eat them."

Don't lick the underside of a park bench.

No really, don't.

Also burpees fix everything. EVERYTHING.

"When in doubt, yell ABORT and barrel roll!"

But if we must go serious here, I'll suggest this.

"Don't bottle up your problems, the bottle will only explode." - Some guy I heard in the street one day.

Basically, I think it means share any problems you have with other people before they finally get to you and make you really sad and depressed. Just wish I'd listened to that early in life but what can you do?

"Be nice to the people you meet on your way up to success. You'll meet them again on the way down"

Reminds me of a quote I read... "Keep your words soft and tender, for tomorrow you may have to eat them."

That's a good one.

Here's another: "It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt"

"Live life without regrets"
"Count the shadows"
"dont dwell on the past"

I have more but it would take hours to list them all.

You can make a living with your back, but you can make a life with your mind.

Don't stay with someone more than a year if you're not going to spend the rest of your life with them. Thats more than enough time to know one way or the other.

Remember that individualism hits a line at some point. Don't act self-righteous if you cross that line, because people will just get more pissed. By all means, be an individual, but don't forget about the others.

 

[Choppaduel]

"Don't do bad things; only do good things.
Always treat your neighbor like someone who live near to you.
Never put a sock in a toaster.
Never put jam on a magnet.
Never through your granny in a bag.
Never suck all the juice out of a vampire.
Never lean over on Tuesday.
uh.... lots of other things but I'm going to go have a Mars bar now..."

Hell hath no fury like a angry women. And don't let people tread one you. I know both the hard way

AND when roofing, don't pull the cellophane off the bottom of the singles, trust me. Saves you load of time

Life is like a pair of old underwear. Towards the end, it's stained, smelly, brief or short, and full of little holes. However, with a little care and regular cleansing, you can just say 'Ah fuck it, I'll go commando.'
