What advice would you give to your younger selves?

[Trenchfriend]

Another one comes to my mind:

"Buddy, always have a PROPER breakfast! Believe me, this will give you a much better start into the day."

 

[nick123]

Don't smoke!

 

[Nobert]

I would have never said, "Hold my beer & watch this"!

You'd have hung on to the beer yourself, then?

Guilt is a useless emotion. It serves no useful purpose. Don't indulge it.

Gotta kinda disagree. Guilt is a nudge, something in your brain telling you that something you did was wrong. Though I endorse the "Don't indulge it" part. Letting guilt fester just saps the will, becomes a thing to be nurtured in itself, and makes one demoralized, defeated, or Roman Catholic.*

*Sorry, Catholics. But, really, you've got to be used to these jokes by now.

Never play poker or shoot pool against a man whose first name is a state.

And a related thought: "never buy an automobile named after a storm or natural disaster."

...“or that’s got a name which the developers had no idea of what that could mean in other than their native language such as the „Pajero“ from Mitsubishi or the „E-Tron“ from Audi“.

Or that famous "vaporub"

You didn't like the Plymouth Duster with the Twister trim package?

 

[Nobert]

I can't remember who is was that said: "Never eat at a place called 'Mom's.' Never play cards with a guy named Doc. Never go to bed with anyone crazier than you are."

Well, two out of three ain't bad.

 

[Turnip]

Don’t pay unwarrantable respect.

 

[Hercule]

Don’t pay unwarrantable respect.

Kind of cynical don't you think?

 

[LizzieMaine]

Don't expect your life at sixteen to be even remotely like anything you will experience as an adult. Because it never is.

 

[Edward Reed]

don't date that girl, don't go out with that one either and sure as hell don't marry her! oh, and stay away from that one too. (and put some g'damn money away for your future!)

 

[Turnip]

Kind of cynical don't you think?

It’s a cynical world.

 

[Hercule]

Who was it that said, or what is the actual quote that went something like - You spend the rest of your life trying to make up for what you did in your first 18 years?

 

[Turnip]

Idiocy is no question of age.

 

[Hercule]

It’s a cynical world.

Can't argue with that! But it needn't be. Change starts with you. Be the change you wish to see in the world. Good god look at me spewing new age platitudes! Yikes!! You can't hold me to it...I'll deny I ever said it! I think I need more coffee...

 

[Edward Reed]

Floss.

Sell wet, buy dry.

Of life:
Keep your head down, you’ll never hear the shot that kills you.
