    Remember: a knot is a temporary condition in a rope.

    As such, always secure your knots with a proper inline safety.

    Hate to disagree but I'm officially That Guy.

    It takes just 15 minutes a day to read up to 20 books a year.

    Alliteration is great for remembering things.

    An alliterative alteration and augmentation: Proper planning plus appropriate preparation plainly prevents piss-poor performance.

    Something I tell my students: "Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine."

    Don't confuse your M1006 and M1060 40mm rounds.

    One is a silly tennis ball, the other is a miniature nuke.

    Look both ways before crossing a street applies to bike paths and pedestrian-heavy areas as well.

    Getting sick of kids who are too busy looking at their phones to realize they're inconveniencing others with their erratic walking. I must have looked that dumb when I used to walk around reading fiction as a teenager/young adult.

    It's good to escape every now and again, but true growth can't take place unless you're firmly planted in reality

    Never assume, but if you have to, assume everything is going wrong.

    Plastic grocery bags should have a permanent place in your vehicle's door pocket. They're useful for collecting road trip trash, act as dress shoe covers and can be used as impromptu gloves.

    The best time to present your girlfriend with a thong bikini is not during the winter "fat phase," but instead after a day on the beach where similar women are running around clad in them.

    Any article of clothing that you find yourself talking about more than twice deserves to be purchased in duplicate. If you've found something that works great, it's worth having two of it.

    Totally. I do this with all of my professional clothing. I have three pairs of the same pants in different colors.
