3. Only use racial slurs past 9PM (NOT ON FEDERAL HOLIDAYS).

4. Be nice to people of all races and Creeds (early Creed, late Creed)

5. Talk slow for dumb people. Medium for everyone else. Fast if it’s a talking race.

6. Sleep nightly. Or not. Maybe. Sleep on a bed. I dunno. Sleep is a factor, let’s say that.

7. Dogs.

8. High 5 yourself after every job interview. It’s inappropriate to go for a High 5 that soon with a employer.

17. Swahili is a place not a language. Or wait. I dunno. Don’t talk about Swahili.

18. Be a vegan. Be loud about it. Change your mind. It’s your life. Have some fun. Today, I’m a scientologist, tomorrow a gluten-free polyamorous. Two days ago, I was a paleo racist.

24. Most people who do hard drugs frequently are so enlightened they’ve realized alcohol is the secret to life. Join them and their band.

25. Invest in a good lava lamp.

Break

entirely

Put a paragraph of lorem ipsum in everything you write. See how people react to it.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla gravida massa elit, id sodales elit luctus ut. Sed imperdiet feugiat porta. Donec eget fermentum felis. Maecenas iaculis risus vitae ligula venenatis aliquam. Phasellus sollicitudin malesuada rhoncus. Aenean eget erat sodales, egestas mi sit amet, pellentesque neque. Quisque placerat ut nulla eu rutrum. Put whatever you want inside people’s quotes. Nunc cursus faucibus ipsum, at euismod urna luctus at. Integer libero ligula, malesuada hendrerit nulla ac, lacinia bibendum augue. 9/11 was an inside job. Donec ornare suscipit mi vel bibendum. What is fire? Seriously. Integer quis nibh malesuada lorem dapibus malesuada #dapibus. Nulla tincidunt dapibus ullamcorper. Ut vitae nisl et purus feugiat adipiscing vel quis urna. #latinProblemz

27. Act like nothing happened.

27.5.

28. Start 5 book clubs. Never attend any of the meetings, but read the books.

29. Use Linkedin like twitter. Use twitter like facebook. Use myspace like pinterest. Use instagram as a long-form blogging platform.

30. “Create more than you consume” is only true when it comes to pizza. Always make a little extra pizza. Offer it to a friend. If they say yes, eat it anyway, but throw away a pepperoni or something. You win.

31. Don’t call the fire police. Don’t use water. If there’s a fire, fight fire with fire. What are you, stupid? More fire = less fire.

32. Don’t ever change. Seriously. The best people picked how they were at age 15 and stuck to it.

33. All people are evil. Everyone does things because they are selfish, and true goodness is impossible. Nothing has ever been good. Progress is a lie. Spend your life demeaning other’s “achievements,” acting as if all institutions, companies, organizations, and human beings are only trying to maximize their own pleasure and riches. Humanity is a scourge and a virus. Never forget this. There are no heroes. There are only victims and victors. The victors win by destroying the stupid, and the victims are the people too stupid to realize they are being exploited. Nothing good will ever happen. The only reality in this life is your own pleasure. Maximize it any cost. No one matters. Happiness is the product of destroying others in every way possible. Life is a zero sum game. Take from others and you will gain. Life is about mindless self-indulgence and anyone who disagrees is a naive and puerile idealist who is lying to themselves.

34. Bagels are a cheap, tasty, and reasonably light breakfast.
