    I was talking to my sister today about life lessons to pass down to her kids. I’m thinking things that people don’t write down in books. Only age and wisdom can teach you certain things.

    So far ive come up with
    1. Always smell your milk before you pour it into your tea/coffee/cereal
    2. Don’t drink anything green
    3. Don’t buy cheap bin bags

    Any more I can add from the stw fountain of knowledge?

    The apex is always further round than you first thought.

    Never refuse a cup of tea/coffee, might be the last one you have.

    Warm up before exercising.
    Before you jump the fence make damn sure the grass is greener as there’s usually no way back.

    Learn to bare the burden of blame alone.

    Be kind to whoever you meet on the way up; You never know who you’ll need on the way back down.

    Give them enough rope to hang themselves with.

    I’m only 27, plenty time to forget all that….

    Don’t get stoned then get pissed unless you want a major throw up session

    Regret the things you’ve done, not the things you haven’t done.

    Be nice, not evil.

    Speak to people as you wish to be spoken to.

    Work smarter, not harder

    it’s better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you are an idiot than open it and remove all doubt.

    Don’t worry what other people think about you. Everyone else is too worried about what other people think about them to give a toss about you.

    Admit Nothing. Deny Everything. Make Counter-Accusations.

    People hold ideologies and adhere to mass movements to escape individual responsibility.

    The two attitudes don’t really mix that well unless you admit responsibility only to yourself, at the end of the day you are the only person you have to answer to on your deathbed.

    If you’re going to take a s**t, do it at work and get paid for it.

    Never talk about your woman. No matter how far away she is she will hear you. May take time, but she WILL hear you.

    In a similar vein, it’s always better to be hungover on somebody else’s time
