Three Hundred Helpful Pointers

[Ash]

Hello, friends! The purpose of this thread is to see if we can get to three hundred posts that detail helpful little facts that, if one remembers them, can really brighten up someone's day. The only rules that apply are forum ones, so no double posts, etc.

So, I'll start:

1) An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but two invites the mortician.

 

[Statharas]

2) Don't invade Poland when the whole world tells you not to.

 

[fladdermasken]

3) Taking direct consecutive hits in Mario is not a winning approach.

 

[sonofjay]

4) A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

 

[Statharas]

5) If you're drilling into your wall, use stickynotes to catch debris falling.

 

[shamanyouranus]

6) Normal is not a realistic goal.

 

[Ash]

7) You exist. You are made up of matter. Fortunately enough, it is just as easy to 'not exist' and the matter that was once you can go into something else that, I'm sure, will be much more grateful for being alive than your emo arse was.

 

[fladdermasken]

8) Remember there's a big difference between kneeling down and bending over.

 

[takakenji]

Why Did 8 afraid of & ?Because 7 87 9!!!!!

[fladdermasken]

11) Not all voles practice monogamy. Some just tunnel the first lump of shit they find.

 

[Ash]

12) The above point was a metaphor.

 

[Animalpower]

13) Nothing comes from nothing.

 

[Coolty44]

[Arcisal]

15) Everyone thinks they're unique, not just you.

 

[Ender]

16)A fool and his money are easily parted

17)remember 2 wrongs don't make a right, but that 4 do

 

[Skycraft]

[Magtheridon96]

[eubz]

21) Yesterday until the last second that has passed is only a dream, this moment is what is real. Tomorrow is just another dream we are hoping to see. Life is just a dream of the moments reality.

 

[D4RK_G4ND4LF]

22) 20) is disputable

 

[dead-man-walking]

23) We'll all die in the end. Might as well make life worth living.

 

[D4RK_G4ND4LF]

23) We'll all die in the end. Might as well make life worth living.

or not

 

[dead-man-walking]

25) Unless you somehow find a way to immortality. I guess that works too.

 

[Magtheridon96]

26) All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

 

[dead-man-walking]

27) Repeating 26) over and over and over again may make you sound crazy, unhinged, mad and insane. Doubly so if you're named Jack.

 

[GhostThruster]

28) Don't make a girl a promise if you know you can't keep it.

ah come on i cant resist

 

[Arcisal]

29) Life is not short. STFU with your inspirational quotes and philosophies.

 

[brad.dude03]

30) Only the young think that life isn't short. Teenagers are convinced that they are invincible and immortal, that life will go on forever. But every moment you spend alive is a moment where you are closer to death, and so you must live in every moment with the knowledge that the span of your life is but a single grain of sand on a beach larger than any you could possibly imagine.

 

[Magtheridon96]

31) "Life is not short, it's the longest thing you'll ever do" is an invalid statement. If my life was 2 days, it would still be the longest thing I'll ever do, but 2 days is very short.
Life is short, so enjoy it and do what /you/ want to do, not what others say you want to do.

 

[Animalpower]

32) - 31) 30) is not really true, as a teenager I do not believe that I am immortal, nor I am convinced, nor I ever believed such. You speak of minority probably. Short life is a illusion. How can you say life is short when you do not know when you will die? Life is short for people who memorise the past without remembering the details, just their important and memorable events or times in their life. But life is not short. Realistically even 30 years of life is not short. Like those people in Angola who live at the bottom of life expectancy. To me even 30 years would be not short. 100 years old is very long. And I do not believe a centenarian could say that, as a centenarian has long life experiences, and is the wisest person to know about life. Life is not short, just for some it is fast. For some it is slow. Example, people who work monotonous jobs, who spend their life the same way or those who just sleep and eat could feel the life going fast. As a human our lifespan is not short. A short life is that of a butterfly, mouse, worm or bat.

Short life is a illusion.

 

[dead-man-walking]

OOT: On the other hand, a long life is also an illusion. Its a matter of perspectives. That's why:

33) Great minds doesn't always think alike.

 

[brad.dude03]

34) Never invade Russia when winter is coming. In fact, just never invade Russia. It doesn't work out.

 

[Statharas]

35) Don't take responsibilities unless you know you can handle them.

 

[Ash]

36) Learn from the mistakes of others and ONLY ADD ONE POINT TO THIS LIST AT A TIME.

 

[AlexDragon1111]

37) Do not talk to strangers and do not be a stranger.

 

[Sky Green]

38) Don't use a cannon to kill a mosquito

 

[Arcisal]

39) Buff is not a synonym of strong. And just because you have great round biceps doesn't mean you'll be great at every sport.

 

[Geazergimli2]

40) Left is right, right is wrong

 

[Pyramidhe@d]

1) An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but two invites the mortician.

as cryptic as that may sound, apple seeds contain cyanide and excessive consumption MAY kill you

 

[Ramza]

41) More people are killed by donkeys annually than are killed in plane crashes.

 

[Pyramidhe@d]

42) one does not simply walk into mordor

 

[Skycraft]

43) A human eats 14 flies on average a year, in their sleep.

 

[Arcisal]

44) Your ideas and interests are probably not shared by everyone else, maybe some. But that doesn't give you the right to force everyone into sharing your views.

 

[GhostThruster]

45) The pointer after this will be 46.

 

[Crazed_seal2]

46) The last pointer is correct.

 

[Firelord213]

47) If her age isn't on the clock, she's too young fer your cock. Which means it's all right for you to have intercourse with 13 year old's.

 

[GhostThruster]

48) The previous point is wrong. 'If her age isn't on the clock' - this means its alright to have intercourse with 1 - 12 year olds only

 

[DSanhueza]

49) The previus two were both wrong. "If her age isn't on the clock" bang somebody who is your age for the good of the world.

 

[Arcisal]

50) Go to Amsterdam. Now.
