Steve's Rules of Life

in palnet •  5 years ago 

VULGARITY WARNING!

Current mood: amused

I have compiled this list at the great personal cost of many injuries,
icepacks, aspirins, and comforting neckrubs.
But no fucking menudo, that's just disgustin

  1. Drink like a motherfucker NOW, coz once your body goes to shit,
    hangovers hurt worse
  2. Get all the ass you can NOW, coz once your body goes to shit, you'll
    only manage to be able to do it once a day
  3. Don't do a lot of coke, unless your rich anyway. The high/$ don't
    match.
  4. Don't get a coffee habit, coz once your body goes to shit, you'll
    never sleep again
  5. Type all your myspace shit in word or notepad, coz myspace will
    crash anytime you get longwinded
  6. Keep your body in shape, so it don't go to shit so fucking soon
  7. Don't get cancer, coz it will make your body go to shit faster.
  8. Join the military at least once - it's funner then college with less
    pretentious assholes per square inch
  9. Tatoos are addictive, so plan your inking before you run out of money
  10. Don't quit a $70k/yr job to start your own business unless you KNOW
    your going to strangle the dumbshits at work for goddamn sure
  11. Don't brag about the hookers and strippers you've nailed, especially
    if you're dorky with wimmin
  12. Don't pick up more then two chicks at once unless at least ONE of
    them eats pussy
  13. Keep your body in shape coz it's not like a wife you can get a
    younger model with bigger tits once it wears out - you just get the
    bigger tits
  14. Laugh your ass off when you do stupid shit - Everyone else is gonna
    anyway, so you might as well enjoy it too
  15. If you work more then 60 hrs a week, it's your own fault if your
    dick falls off
  16. If you even look at street hookers, it's your own fault if your dick
    falls off - spend a little extra
  17. Stupid people are for laffing at, not beating with baseball bats,
    despite what your heart tells you
  18. Don't get married until you've slept with 10 women, but don't pass
    up the perfect wife to sleep with 100
  19. Paperwork exists, and will get worse every year until the human race
    is buried in rules, regulations, permits, and licences.
  20. Most women like getting spanked, even if they deny it
  21. People believe what they want to believe, and facts and logic be
    damned (for them)
  22. Beating your head against the wall might hurt, but less so then
    giving up
  23. Make your own fucking choices and live with the consequences
  24. Never regret your stupidest moves; just don't do it again
  25. You owe your parents bigtime, even if they suck. Since they
    probably DON'T, keep them happy.
  26. If you do get married, you have given your word. Don't cheat on her.
  27. Squeeze out a stinker just when life gets serious
  28. She owes you a blowjob if you hold her purse. Even if she don't
    like blowjobs. Even if she's just a friend.
  29. Don't just sit there with "who pumped the neighbor's cat" look on
    your face. Do something
  30. He who dies with the most toys STILL wins

Some true and some not so much, but every one sounds like it was well earned. #29 is particularly wrong. I prefer Davy Crockett's aphorism: 'Be always sure you are right, then go ahead.' The problem with that is that most people are wrong most of the time, and do the wrong thing. As a carpenter, this causes me no end of work - paid work. First it's done wrong, which is usually on the clock. Then it's undone, almost always on the clock. Then I get to do it right, for which I get paid too. It finally gets done right in the end. So, if you don't take the time to do it right, you'll make the time to do it over.

Doing it wrong costs you three times as much as doing it right. So, I decided that doing things wrong, even if satisfying my momentary urge to 'do something' about whatever needed doing, was always unacceptable.

'Don't just do something. Sit there.' is now my motto. Betimes at work I'll study a situation with more than one potential solution before taking action. I have waited almost two years to undertake a project I finished yesterday, because there were so many potentially (expensive) effective ways to solve it. I finally realized I had scrap lumber left over from other stuff I did (that actually matched what I did) and was able to undertake the project to completion at zero cost, the first time.

Works for me. But, you are doing you, and I'll be hanged before you have to wait two years on me.

Thanks!

isnt the carpenter's maxim "measure twice, cut once"?

we can see that a person's experiences forge their world view, and here is a good example. you, in a profession where haste makes waste, abhor rule 29 ;>

otoh, I indulge myself in overanalyis too much, and have to force myself to move quick. I remember hearing this Patton quote a while back

and tho I didn't stay in the military profession long, I did pick up that mindset. One thing is that there are situations in that profession where ANY decsion has to be made immediately...for example, getting caught in an ambush in the open where all decsions are likely to be bad...but better than sitting there thinking.

Sides a that, I'm just naturally impulsive LOL
