Looks really, really, really matter.

It’s f*****g dumb, and not right, but it just seems to be this constant in life.

The better you look, or the better you MAKE yourself look, you will notice people are more pleasant to you.

People are very often rewarded for being truly terrible human beings.

Selfish, greedy, narcisistic, sociopathic, all traits that will help someone get ahead in life by walking over the backs of others.

The vast majority of people know exactly what their problems are and what they would need to do to fix them, they just feel too unequipped or overwhelmed to follow through.

You might not like it but you need help. Everyone needs help at some point or another whether mentally, emotionally or otherwise.

Most of us are painfully aware of the need at some time but admitting to it and acting on that need goes unheeded.

Some relationships are forced. Every day feels like a 2nd job after getting off work. If you find yourself “going to work after work”, you need to start asking yourself if the relationship is really a relationship and not a second job.

Thank god for my second wife for opening my eyes to what a “relationship” really is.

All those bad things you hear happening to other people can, in fact, happen to you too because you aren’t special.

Some people will not like you, and there’s nothing you can do about it. Trying to force a friendship or relationship with someone who doesn’t love you back isn’t going to work. Yet very few people ever learn this lesson, nor do they want to hear about it either, they think they’ll be the one person that can find that magic trick (they won’t).

Life is actually easier the more responsible you are.

Everybody picks their nose, it’s what happens next that sets us apart.

When people say we’re better than this, we’re really not.

We killed the buffalo to kill the native Americans. We gave them smallpox infected blankets.

We imprisoned our own citizens for having parents born in Japan, but not Italians or Germans.

We freed the slaves only to reenslave with Jim Crow laws.

We’ve done evil and have to wage war against our worst instincts or we’ll do it again.

#23

Big touch screens in cars are incredibly stupid and dangerous.

Yes a lot of people know and admit this, but car makers haven’t gotten the message. Not substantially enough.

Most people are parakeets and mindlessly repeat whatever is regurgitated in their environment or social milieu. We’re all guilty of it to varying degrees.

You can’t actually be anything you want in life. You can try and more power to you for trying it, but your personal skill set and the way your brain works may not enable you to do whatever you can dream up.
