What great advice have you heard (on any subject)? This could be funny or serious.
Mine is when a friend of mine was being bullied.
The guy asked another mate of mine "What should I do?"
And he said "Two words mate, Whup ***, it comes in cans, open one of the son of a *****"
and he did.

thats because some of the letters were replaced with *s to represent rude words no allowed on this forums.
My basic idea was for patrons to post their good pieces of advice they've collected over the years, for whatever purpose

From my own experince:
-Don't pick up a penny that is near a fire and is changing colours.
-Don't cut half way though a branch of a tree and they stand on it to see if it will break.

It was once said, and I quote, 'Do not use hot wax to soothe enraged lobsters'. Well, seeing that I lack the needed intelligence to fathom the literal message of this, I seem to be in a bit of a situation here. I'll get back you when they get these things off and treat the massive blood loss.

Hmm, advice
If the wife starts to get ready half an hour before you are due to go out then you are going to be late.
When the wife says that you don't need to buy her anything for her birthday she doesn't mean it.
When your wife asks if she looks fat in her new dress there is no correct answer.
When the bouncer tells you you're not getting in then calling him a....very bad name won't change his mind.
Men wearing lycra is never a good idea.
edit: A very important one, never trust anyone else to turn off the electricity when you're going to work on electrical items.

never had the opportunity to turn this advice into practice myself, but it sounds like good advice to me:

It could be said that lying to your wife isn't really lying, it's self preservation.

Heres a story my grandad told me before he died Several years ago,
"there was a bird on top of a roof, And it had chicks,
One of the chicks was mischevious And decided to venture out of the nest,
It fell from the roof and in to a pile of dog Waste/mess
The chick started flaping its wings and chirping for help, This Just draged it futher in to the dog mess Filling its mouth as it went,"
Now theres a morral to this story.
And its,
When your up to your neck in Sh*t Its best to keeep your mouth shut.

Stay in school, kids.
Keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle.
Violence isn't the answer.
An apple a day keeps the doctor away, if thrown in the right direction.

Advice is good but proverbs are better; Chinese proverbs are the best:
"When your compass says one thing and your map another, either your compass is broken or your map is wrong."
"When the bear breathes deep, the rabbit gets cold."
"Small feet never use big gloves."
"A high tower is a low hill."
"A leaf in the stream is like a dead fish in your kettle."
"If your map says thay you're on the mountain over there, then you're lost."
"Raise a wall and your trees will shine under the sun."
"Your home isn't your pit."
"A duck is a duck, but the fowl doesn't know."
"Rain on your hat is like stones on the mountain."
"If you walk West, nobody in the North will tell."
"Over there always means up there."
"Sing like a bird, sleep like a tiger, eat like a bear."
"Man who gets laid in strawberry patch has ass in jam."
"Man who get laid on hillside is not on level."
"Man who is able to read this is able to read."
"It should not be forgotten that being healthy is essentially better than being unhealthy."
"He who looks at the sun in the day will have his eyes dazzled; he who looks at the sun at night is having an illusion."
"In a conflict, it's better to be the winner than the loser."
"A dead wolf is not afraid of a donkey."
Especially when they are fake and quite a few of them made up my myself.

What? Small feet don't use any gloves!
I always liked "He who stands on the highest pyramid of skulls sees farthest".

The best defense is a good offence.:charge:
Think before you speak. (I usually get this one mixed around~;) )
I sat on the table part of my aunt’s picnic table once and she smacked me in the back of my head so hard I thought I saw Jesus, then told me that “Tables are for glasses, not asses.” :dizzy2:

I'm not very good at keeping my own advice: avoid offering unsolicited advice. Furthermore, be especially careful if you choose to offer advice to a friend who asks for it.
I get good advice frequently from TogakureOJonin ~:)
One of the best I remember was: 'Have fun!'. That was before my first match in a stw mp tournament.
Never put anything smaller than your elbow in your ear.
Never use a girls' iron defeciency as a basis for conversation, no matter how much you want to carry on talking...

He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.
-Nietzsche
Beware of dissipating your powers; strive constantly to concentrate them. Genius thinks it can do whatever it sees others doing, but is sure to repent of every ill-judged outlay.
-Goethe
Judge of a man by his questions rather than by his answers.
-Voltaire
The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions.
-Alfred Lord Tennyson
The visionary lies to himself, the liar only to others.
-Friedrich Nietzsche

Never listen to, Everything I do, I do it for you by Bryan Adams when you are having girl trouble. Not a good idea, speaking from experience. Listen to She hates me by Puddle of Mudd instead ~;)
