What are the biggest things you\u2019ve learned in life to date?
*sigh* this is going to be a long list.
Don’t do drugs. Including the valium from your parents.
Don’t accept sweets when they are in fact drugs.
Don’t smoke, it’s at least a 20-year habit that will give you a good shot at COPD once you’ve stopped.
Never out of interest and bored and because you could, buy a gun and shoot random things to see if they break.
Always plug the CPU fan power into the CPU power socket on the motherboard otherwise bye bye 18th birthday present
Sex is not the be-all and end-all of life. Closeness is far more rewarding.
Birth control should come with pictures of babies on them and a warning to your health.
Black coffee is the way to go, never ruin that shit with sugar and milk
Bean to cup machine vs rent. Always go bean to cup.
Programming. Learn a programming language. Personally PHP but whatever floats your boat. It’ll help your logic skills throughout life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A university degree is a piece of paper to wedge open a door for an interview. Nothing more. It does not make you an expert. Life makes you that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you taste the alcohol in the drink you asked for, you should probably not down it and ask for more<\/p>\n\n\n\n
16 is too young to start your own business involving large amounts of money and investing them in drinks, drugs, and weapons. I shit you not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, tempting it is to ram a needle into a muscle and filled it with ephedrine really isn’t cleaver. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why are these mostly around drugs? Let’s try some normal ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don’t bring vodka to high school disguised as either water or mixed with coke. The drink coke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All you need in life is one good friend. The one you haven’t seen in a year but it was just like you met five minutes ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hedge your bets. There is a god, well, something started the big bang BUT fret not, with intelligence comes humor so you should be fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sell cigarettes for 50p a pop in high school. It paid for edibles which kept you sane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oh DONT listen to dads views on Catholics when doing a history essay calling for the irradiation of all Catholics in Ireland by keeping them in camps. I really really wish that wasn’t true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What advice would you give to your younger self?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please see the above. Also Microsoft, Apple, and gold. Invest in all of them with everything you have.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
