    You need only compare vast swathes of modern day sub-Saharan Africa to ancient Rome for a similar comparison.

    Ya or if your doing it with a lass doggy style, use wipes so there will be no stench, this is actually important as the smell of crap during sex is a big turnoff.

    Put Kleenex in your golf bag if you play enough golf, you will at some stage need to crap in the woods.

    After 20 years plus of playing I have yet to experience or see that.

    I would say on the golf theme that a provisional is almost guaranteed to be a perfect shot though

    There are 3 things I don't mind spending money on:

    good shoes
    a good bed
    and a good chair.

    If you're not in 1 of them, you're in the other.

    Go home, see your family, go for a walk in the park, have a pint, watch the telly, do something better with your spare time than volunteer to make even more money for a millionaire who is literally laughing all the way to the bank at your stupidity!
    If you want to volunteer your time, there are a million more worthy causes.

    "Everytime you point a finger, there's three pointing back at you."

    I take this to mean that a negative person will attract negativity in general; and that a person who is quick to point out flaws immediately highlights their own obvious ones.

    There are people who Tell you what to do and there are people who can Teach you.

    Nobody is indispensable and Nobody is greater that the sum of the parts because when you die, life goes on without you!

    So..
    Live life to your fullest potential doing whatever makes YOU feel happy because at the end of the day its your life, follow your dreams as best as you can, because you only going to get one go at it.
    Oh..
    And wear sunscreen!

    No, I'm not.
    I've heard there's only a 50:50 chance.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,430 ✭✭✭Ilik Urgee


    The harder you work the luckier you get.

    Follow your gut, even if advice says different.

    Never burn out your 3 chances at anything. I did it once with regards education and that door was firmly shut.

    Everybody's friend is either a fool or a snitch in my experience.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 603 ✭✭✭Yellowblackbird


    I've heard there's only a 50:50 chance.

    That's only if you're horizontal.

    Safe if you do it standing up.

    If it's supposed to move and it doesn't - oil it
    If it does move and it's not supposed to - gaffer tape it

    True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us. - Socretes

    Once more there sounded within me, together with the cranes' cry, the terrible warning that there is only one life for all men, that there is no other, and that all that can be enjoyed must be enjoyed here. In eternity no other chance will be given to us. – Zorba the Greek

    I felt once more how simple and frugal a thing is happiness: a glass of wine, a roast chestnut, a wretched little brazier, the sound of the sea. Nothing else. - Zorba again

    Life is too short for regrets.

    It takes too much energy to hate someone - forget and move on.

    My O/H always says:

    "Holding a grudge is like taking poison and expecting the other person to suffer"

    This is true. Not caring about them at all anymore is often worse for them. Even if the attention is negative it is still attention. Someone not caring if you live or die is so powerful. It can cause a lot more pain than hate ever will.
