2. Do not impede the progress of others
I saw that on a bike trail in California but think it's a great rule to live by in general.

20. Suppose I am trying to get into the right lane...
...to exit the interstate and I am the only one who seems to give a shit about the speed limit. I'm getting passed left and right so I need to go faster to get into the right lane to avoid causing an accident. (One shouldn't pass on the right anyway.) Once there, I return to the posted limit.

Or suppose I am in the left lane of a 2-lane highway and discover the traffic stacking up behind me or passing on the right. Shouldn't I move into the right lane where drivers are also speeding so others can pass (at illegal, unsafe and inefficient speeds) on the left?

12. Don't buy problems when you're getting them free.
This is essentially my mantra at work (I work at a teaching hospital).

27. on a similar note, I don't know what I was thinking when I made this
Edited on Wed Apr-04-07 04:14 PM by unpossibles
but do not ever make a black bean, cabbage, onion, pepper, and cheese omelet. EVER.

I could smell the result through a filter mask.

25. no douchebags allowed
that's about it for me and rules other than "try to have fun, learn from your mistakes, and don't be an asshole except when absolutely necessary."

I like Bruce Lee's: There's no such thing as fighting dirty. You do what you have to do to end the fight as quickly as possible, including avoiding it in the first place. (I am paraphrasing)
