Playing The Victim

Those who play the victim, will always be the victim.

Get off your knees, and earn people's respect.

Manners

Manners, like water, tend to evaporate in the heat.

In order to restore the equilibrium, tip a bucket of cold water over the ill mannered individual.

God and Religion

God, if he exists, does not need a flawed man made religion to validate his existence.

Stupidity

Never underestimate man's capacity for stupidity.

Companies, Governments and Buckets

Companies and governments are like buckets with holes, they leak.

Risk

Risk is the spice that gives life flavour.

Hearing

Hearing is not the same as listening.

Looking

Looking is not the same as reading and understanding.

Brinkmanship

Brinkmanship can be an effective tool in negotiations. However, those who seek to employ this tool must take care not to tip over the brink.

Altruism

Beware the colleague who claims altruism when he says:

"I am only suggesting this for your own good"

He is lying, the suggestion is in fact for his private benefit.

Updates

Why do pc's chose the most annoying times to download updates, which invariably slow the workings of the pc down to a snail's pace?

Advice To Owners of Pushchairs

Pushchairs are not battering rams or instruments of aggression, they are designed to convey an infant from A to B in a safe and efficient manner.

Using them as anything other than a means of conveyance puts the safety of the child at risk, and greatly irritates other pedestrians.
