Best piece of advice you have heard lately

From Red Green:

"If it's dirty, wash it. If it's hairy, clip it. If it needs 'exfoliating', call a plumber or your local clergyman."

From Frank "Blue Bloods" Reagan:

"If it moves, you duct-tape it. If it squeaks, you WD40 it. If it's stuck, you hit it with a hammer."
 
IF it bleeds, we can kill it..

I think tenor is a host that allows this? not exactly sure though :)
 
some 40 years ago at school I read a sentence by a Roman philosopher: quidquid agis, prudenter agas et respice finem.
It translates roughly as: whatever you do, do it with all your heart and always consider the results of your deeds first.
It served me pretty welll these last decades :)
 
“Only pack what you can carry by yourself.”

“Take only pictures. Leave only footprints.”

“Be nice. That small, bookish type in the corner might be harmless. Or they might be a serial killer. You don’t know.”

“It’s amazing how many problems fire can solve.”
 
got some crazy but ingenious advice in a lesson against obsessive thinking (you know: thoughts going in circles, despair starting, you can't stop thinking and the thoughts start to attack you)
eat a very hot chilie. The shock will stop the thinking and you're free.

Cool idea! If I had known that a few months earlier I'd have sown some Cayenne chilies. As it is, I only have tomatos. I'll see if I can get some in the maket
