Wow. I thought the same about the guy...most of my girlfriends were sick of his bull crap behavior! Best advice... They told me to leave him AND I did!!

Having children is like playing Russian Roulette, only the gun isn't pointed at your head.

Never sleep with anyone who is crazier than you are.

As small as that field is I've managed to do it way too many times. I know first hand it's good advice.

"I know you aren't going to listen to me but don't call (your ex-girlfriend)."

Don\'t depend on anyone.

You can\'t depend on anyone.

Not sure which one exactly. My uncle after returning me home, door was locked, my key was inside, she said she would be there.

This damn near brought a tear to my eye. Props.

Act on the honest advice of successful people.

...every time I have it has worked out well.

If it flies,

If it floats,

If it f~(ks,

rent it

From my father.

1. Never spend more than you make.

Best running lesson learned.

Always PR when you can. You will never know when you have

just run the fastest race you ever will.

If some is good

more must be better

"don't knock that hoe up"

Well and I quote...

"And now I know my life

Has given me more than memories, day by day

We can see

In every moment there's a reason to carry on"

A gentleman is simply a patient wolf.

Dammit. That was going to be mine too. My big brother told me that in 9th grade. I didn't get it at the time. I eventually got it. It has served well.

Wear sunscreen.

Everything is negotiable.

From my high school varsity (American) football coach, who illuminated what goal-setting and looking back with no regrets would yield. Paraphrased:

"You think you're good enough (to play for the state championship)?! Then work hard, don't quit, and don't pout-- each and every one of you. Don't be that (pathetic) guy whining at the bar 10 years from now that you could've / should've / would've been a champion."

I know it's cliche, but that moment was the first time the message sunk in about setting goals and thinking what your future self might be or say.

TAKE NOTE, FACT CHECKER. I'M ABOUT TO GIVE YOU THE BEST ADVICE YOU'VE EVER RECEIVED!!!

Stop calling women who like to have sex "easy" and "slutty." Women can enjoy sex (sometimes with lots of partners) and still be awesome, worthwhile people. Do you not realize that you guys are shooting yourselves in the foot with this kind of thinking?

You heard it here first, buddy. From a feminist.
