Good pieces of advice you've heard

[Ianofsmeg16]

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.

My friend lost the fight, bloody nose and all that, but still it was good advice

[Ianofsmeg16]

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

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."

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.


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.”

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.

[Drisos]

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.
