Ducky over at Batcrap Crazy (one of the folks going to TAR by the way; have you signed up yet?) like to throw down some life lessons she has learned and then asked us to join in.  I figured I’d share my experiences and hopefully prevent you from making the same mistakes I did.  Not that I’m admitting to any of these mistakes.  It was a friend…who lived in Canada…you don’t know them.

#112 Mixing crappy coffee with crappy hot chocolate mix only produces a crappy mocha.  It does not in fact create some magical elixir that you enjoy drinking.

#21 Drinking twenty-seven Jagerbombs in one night will not actually make you drunk; it will however prevent you from sleeping for a week.

#802 Not all entrances and exits at stores are automatic open.  If you stand there staring at if for more than a couple seconds, odds are that its a push.  Also, odds are the employees noticed.

#4 Learn the difference between “reply” and “reply all.” And then double check before pressing “send.”

#271 Pets are not kids. While this could be quite a lengthy lesson on the differences between human children and animals that live in your house, I’ll just mention two quick points: nobody wants to hear about your pets, and nobody wants you to bring them with you.  The quicker you learn this, the sooner you will be invited back to parties.

#70 When the dentist asks if you floss, just say no.  They can tell that you’re lying.
