    Default Good pieces of advice you've heard

    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.
    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb...

    what? you think i'm lying?

    My friend lost the fight, bloody nose and all that, but still it was good advice
    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now

    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
    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse

    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:

    "the gun is always loaded."

    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,
