11. DO NOT jump off the lower half of the stairs. Ouch. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif Doesn't matter how many times you've done it successfully.
12. Sometimes, adrenaline is your friend. Like the time I slipped on a larch patch of ice and learned how to recover with flailing. (Go with the spin, plant your hands on the ice and use the spin to torque yourself back up once your turned around. Don't know if I could do it now.) |
Re: Things That I Have Discovered In Life
13. When asked, "Why did you do it?" Answer with "It seemed like a good idea at the time."

20a. The same *******s who race down a half-mile merge lane on the interstate highway using the Last 10 feet of cement to force themself in front of your car would never run the Last 10 feet to to the same kind of thing at a theatre line.

Re: Things That I Have Discovered In Life
For some strange reason (worth a psych class term paper Id say) the Last cars to turn on their headlights are the ones which most needed to. They tend to match the color of the road or darkness. Whether its darkness, rain, fog, whatever. Check it out next time.
I think there is something about the choice of colors. People who choose bright cars want to be seen, and people who choose dark ones want to stay stealthy or unnoticed? I dont know why. Thats for someone else to try and figure out. If anyone DID do a study, Id like them to do it in a parking lot so they can question the people coming in. Question all of the "wrong" ones to the theory, and see if maybe they arent the ones who chose the color of their car. |
Re: Things That I Have Discovered In Life
30: The directions are there for a reason.

Re: Things That I Have Discovered In Life
The drivers of the fancier cars (Mercedes,BMW) tend not to use their turn signals and are most likely the ones that will cut you off.
Maybe they are using their turn signals, I just need to buy those infrared goggles to see them! If you are ethnic, you will buy a lowered Honda or Nissan, stick a muffler on it and call it a "sports car" |

Now, ain't THAT the truth!? How many times I've said, "I can't lose this, I had better put it some place where I know it's safe!" (and then later can't find the darn thing)! |
Re: Things That I Have Discovered In Life
Contrary to what you were taught, those speed limit signs do NOT represent the maximum speed you may drive with lesser speeds being allowed. In fact, quite the oppossite. In reality, they represent the slowest speed you may drive without people getting mad at you.

It's almost impossible to win any prizes with those McDonald's Monopoly games because you very quickly get all the stickers you need except for one and keep getting duplicates of the ones you already have. 86. It's possible to take the square root of an imaginary or complex number. You just get another complex number as the answer. 87. It's important to always use the proper safety equipment when doing any sort of sports or activity where you could potentially get hurt. 88. Some vegetables and fruits don't keep very long and you have to eat them quickly before they go bad.

Re: Things That I Have Discovered In Life
Yeah. You're never to old to play with toys, only to rigid.
|
Re: Things That I Have Discovered In Life
92. Don't be too rigid to play with toys, or too embarased to admit it. Unless you are playing with rigid toys, in that case it's best to keep it to yourself. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
