I know this is a double post, but I originally posted in the OTD board and figured I this is worthy of the SPS board
just random things I've learned in the 3 years since I've moved out and lived on my own. A few I didn't come up with myself-but credit is given to the person who did. The rest is my original thoughts. Please don't flame me if something I said here sounds like something somebody else said... it's a big world and two totally unrelated people are bound to have the same thoughts and ideas...
The best diet is the raman noodle and tap water diet.
Sometimes it's cheaper to buy a bottle of ripped fuel than a week's supply of food.
When faced with tough decisions-compromise. Example: you only have $20 to your name. your gas tank's on E and you have no weed, so you put $10 of cheap gas in your car and buy 2 joints off your roomie.
Get to know at least one person who works at a restaurant... this will keep you from starving.
Cats are the best pet. don't need the attention like dogs, are naturally litter-box trained, and have better personalities than half the people you know.
Tweakers make the best roommates-house is always clean, you know they won't eat your food, and will amaze you with the endless possibilities of how the furniture can be arranged.
A nice trailer kicks any apartment's ass anyday.
Drugs make you forget all your problems. They also make you forget about the feelings of the people who really care for you, your responsibilities, what life is really about, and where you left your god-damn keys.
The best smell in the world is Nag Champa incense and a swisher sweet blunt packed with some KB burning.
You better enjoy living it up in the drug scene, cuz someday reality is going to slap you in the face and pull you out, kicking and screaming.
If I could take it all back now I wouldn't. I would have done more shit people said that I shouldn't. - Eminem
Someday someone is going to break your heart.
Only one person in this world is worthy of your tears... but they won't make you cry.
You are not garaunteed tomorrow.-I don't know who said this, but someone did
If life hands you lemons, squirt the acidic juice into its eye and keep on keeping on.
Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken. - fight club
Fighting over religion is dumb... I mean it's a few people arguing over who has the better imaginary friend.
Have faith in something... sometimes prayer is great therapy, whether or not you believe some deity hears it.
There's nothing like falling in love with a song the first time you hear it.
Make a list or CD of songs you want played at your funeral and give it to a close friend... but whatever you do, don't give it to your mom.
If you want to commit suicide, but don't have the balls to do it by shooting yourself through your temple, you just need to seek help.
If a friend asks you to take a minute to talk, do it. An hour of your time could save someone's life.
Nobody is right... Nobody is wrong.
Love is the best drug, hands down.
Sometimes all you need is a really good lay.
Make mistakes, how else are you gonna learn?
When you're feeling sad or mad or just plain bored, write a script for a movie about your life. Use your creative license though, if you want to get in a fight with someone, write a scene where you kick their ass. The more you do this, the more you realize that you are writing a script for your real life with the decisions you make everyday.
I dunno, I can't think of anymore.
EDIT: thought of a couple more-
Don't ever think you're too old for a little stuffed animal... they are the best snugglers when you're alone, will always dry your tears, and are the best listeners... but don't worry, they can read minds-cuz they understand how silly one could look talking to a stuffed animal.
Always tip your server. They're out there kissing ass to keep a roof over their head... besides, if you don't tip, they'll remember... and next time you go into that restaurant they'll tell everyone there about what an asshole you are and you'll get crappy service. Hey if they're not gonna get a tip-might as well have not even deserved one.
You will never get what you want from other people. If you want something, you gotta get it yourself
Trust No One. -Chris Carter (I am an ex x-phile)
Once a drug has consumed someone you love, there's nothing you can do about it. You just need to accept you can never make them feel as good as the drug does, as long as it has a hold of them.
If you really love someone, let them go. If they love you they will come back. If they don't, piss on 'em... now are you gonna bogart that joint or you gonna pass? -My Roomie
Give a tweaker 3 random household items and some duct tape and they'll make a bong out of it.
Oklahoma is to meth as Columbia is to cocaine.
It's ok for me to call other gay people faggots just like it's ok for African Americans to call other African Americans 'niggas'... and no one knows why.
After you graduate and you just happen to randomly see some snob from your class, who just a couple years ago wouldn't piss on your head if it was fire, will now shreik with joy and run over to you like you were their long-lost friend and attempt to have a conversation with you. This phenomenom is still a mystery to scientists today.
More to come... maybe
