20 Life Lessons

Have you ever wanted to smack someone because they have dug themselves a hole? Gotten themselves into trouble when it was easy to avoid? I sure have! This list is compiled from real life experiences of the people we know and love. I hope you enjoy, and maybe add a few.

LIFE LESSONS WHICH WE ALL MUST OBSERVE:
1. Graduating high school doesn't make you smart. It just means you don't completely fail at life.

2. Date someone for at least a year before getting married. You don't know someone fully until you take it through the seasons, as my dad says.

3. Wen insulting some1 on the internet using bad propr gramar n spellin makes U look like a retard.

4. Always talking about yourself may impact your social life.

5. If you are a hefty person, don't wear mini skirts, or mini anything. Dress properly for your form.

6. Do not go work at a place like Hooter's without having Hooters. Otherwise, it's just wrong.

7. There is always a poor drunk girl at a party. Keep her away from men n pointy objects.

8. Don't walk home alone, no matter how "safe" your city is.

9. Crackheads carry knives. BIG knives.

10. If you need to throw up after drinking, do not do so into your wicker trash can.

11. Telling more than half our friends the same secret makes it public knowledge.

12. Bro kids in raised trucks are compensating for a lack of....well, they have a tiny penis.

13. This is very important---All naked pictures are leaked to the internet. ALL OF THEM.

14. Leaving a party with some guy you just met (while having or not having a boyfriend) is a bad idea. Nobody will believe that "nothing happened".

15. Don't try to convince girls with boyfriends that they are in love with you.

16. Walking alone at night in the bad end of town is a bad idea, even if you're "walking with Jesus". This won't stop you from being raped.

17. Losing your virginity should happen when both people have chosen to have sex, sober. So that both people may be able to recollect the event.

18. Throwing fireworks near your neighbor's boat = boat on fire + hefty bill.

19. Don't bring religious items or books to parties. It's pointless n you look like a zealous idiot.

20. Close the damn door when you pee. Just do it.
All of the above have been agreed upon by @beawarriorqueen and myself. I loved making this list, it was a good laugh remembering some of the stories in which they came from. For every "I told ya so" moment there's a lesson. Hopefully some people will be able to avoid those ridiculous mistakes. Do you have any to add?

  1. number one should read: "graduating *college* doesn't make you smart (or even capable at what your degree entails), it just means that you're able to pass a midterm and a final and managed not to totally fuck up. now the trick is to put it all into practice, i.e. the 'hard part'."

    (unfortunately, graduating high school doesn't mean shit anymore; the stakes are a bit higher)
