Code to Live By Part Two

In case you missed it, here's part one.

34. Don't lend out your books. Ever.
35. It's always the days you look and/or feel like shit that you'll run into either an ex, a current crush, or someone from high school you haven't seen since graduation.
36. There's a fine line between sarcasm and blasphemy.
37. There is no politically correct way to tell someone to kiss your ass.
38. No one likes a soap box, so try not to get on one.
39. Don't piss off your pimp.
40. Be wary of those who proudly admit they are opinionated.
41. If you want to achieve greatness, stop asking for permission.
42. Don't let your life become ordinary.
43. If you're going to tell a story, be quick about it. You may use a pause for emphasis but don't make it longer than necessary.
44. Having a cup of coffee with an old friend is the most effective way to keep yourself from wanting to step in front of a bus.
45. There is a huge difference between living and existing.
46. You don't do homework after 10 o'clock on weekdays and you never, ever do homework on Friday or Saturday nights.
47. People do stupid things when they think they're in love. Now, people who are truly in love, they'll do whatever it takes. The former should never be trusted and the latter should never be doubted.
48. Stand up for what you believe in. Even if you're standing alone, even if you're shaking, even if you know you'll be crucified by the majority, stand up. Don't back down and don't let them know how scared you are.
49. If you're brave enough to make a decision, you must be brave enough to handle the consequences.
50. Give credit where credit is due.
51. At any given point in time, you are either living or you're dying. There ain't no third direction.
52. Ice cream is always a good idea. It doesn't solve anything and it may not make things better, but it sure as hell won't make things any worse.
53. Your world is continually getting smaller. Prepare accordingly.

Love you.
Mean it.
