** Young women should give up adventurous and exciting lifestyles, get married to milquetoasts they dated in high school, and become childbearing housewives.

to:

** Young women should give up adventurous and exciting lifestyles, get married to milquetoasts they dated in high school, and become childbearing housewives. It's a woman's duty, even if it's a thankless, difficult, aggravating job they hate.




to:

** Children are horrible monsters -- you have to take care of them and instead of spending any amount of time on yourself or your interests, you're constantly breaking up fights and lose your sense of identity at the same time.
** Men are pigs who slack off at home and rarely have anything supportive to say, but you have to marry one in order to have a family.
** Grace under fire is an ideal - rocking the boat and complaining to someone's face is too difficult or horrible, so instead you should let them do or say whatever they want... and then complain about them behind their back.
** Stealing another woman's husband away is perfectly wrong, so long as you think she's a shrew who makes him miserable.

** [[SatanIsGood Satan is awesome]]! He's behind all the great music that's been produced in the twentieth and twenty-first century and, it appears, behind all the scientists and thinkers who're responsible for the scientific and cultural advances we've made as a species over the years. [[GodIsEvil That God fella]], on the other hand, stifles freewill and creativity and controls an army of repressive fanatics and dullards.

* ''ComicBook/MonicasGang'': Don't try to correct any of your physical or personality flaws, because if you do, you will lose what made you special and have to be [[ReplacementFlatCharacter replaced with someone else that had that flaw]].
** If your parents are concerned that your lifestyle is harmful in many ways for both yourself and everybody else around you (themselves included), completely [[IgnoredEpiphany ignore]] anything they just say and continue on with that lifestyle, and then give them the excuse that by doing so, you'll have many stories to tell your grandchildren.
** If your friends tell you that you are bossy and short-tempered, they are the ones in the wrong and should be punished by [[NotHelpingYourCase getting the shit beaten out of them]]. [[DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale Unless they are the same gender as you]], then use passive-aggressiveness instead.

** It's perfectly OK to blame a fifteen year old for their own death. Certainly none of the blame should go to the psychopath who beat him halfway to death and then blew him up or the mum who just stood there looking only mildly perturbed.
** Killing criminals is an unforgivable sin. Beating them half to death, using the JackBauerInterrogationTechnique and violating multiple civil liberties, on the other hand, is fine as long as they're still alive afterwards. Alternatively, feel free to trick goons into killing each other or use them as {{Human Shield}}s when they shoot at you; it's not ''you'' killing them, after all.(Though it works since killing is too easy for them).
** Prisons and/or mental asylums should look as spooky and intimidating as possible, regardless of the fact that the point of both is usually to ''cure'' the people who end up there. And even if your asylum of choice for the criminally insane you keep running into turns out to have a terrible containment record with holes in security you could drive [[Franchise/{{Transformers}} Optimus Prime]] through and be staffed by people who are almost as psychopathic as the criminals they're watching over, don't bother taking steps to improve it or hire on staff who actually want to see their patients be ''cured'' of their conditions, that would be silly. (Though they can't be helped because their villains and justified since the time period is 50s at best).
** It's perfectly okay to be paranoid as fuck and assume that all your friends will turn on you some day. It's also perfectly okay to create contingencies to use against those same friends, even if you end up getting them all almost killed should those contingencies fall into the wrong hands, and to not tell them those things exist. And if they get angry about your blatant breach of trust and the fact you were stupid enough not to guard them better? Just call them a bunch of squares for not being as paranoid as you. And if they decide to hold a vote on whether to kick you out of their friendship circle? Just drop out on your own; they can't fire you if you quit!

* ''ComicBook/NemesisTheWarlock'': If you find out that a close friend of yours is actually using you for giggles and fun in a game against a complete tyrant, then you should betray your friend and sell him out to his tyrannical arch nemesis in order to teach him a lesson and blame him for any misfortune that came his way, including the deaths of his wife and child.
** Always listen to the guy who is HolierThanThou and thinks that anybody who is ugly and does not appear human is evil, even if that guy is a mass murderer who is only half-right.
** It is important to bring those who have committed unspeakable atrocities to justice in a court of law, even if such criminals are those who are way too dangerous to keep alive and will manipulate, threaten, and kill the witnesses, judge and jury. It is important to do this because it will expose their crimes to all of the world, even though it will cause serious consequences.
** If your husband divorces you and remarries another woman then it is acceptable to get back at him by pretending to fall in love with him again, tricking him into killing the second wife, and then humiliate him in the remarriage ceremony.

** Conversely on Civil War and in a way Marvel Comics as a whole... Don't bother asking any authority figure on Earth for help...''EVER'' because ''no one'' can be trusted. The US Government (as mentioned above) wants nothing but a legion of superhuman slaves most likely to either enslave or kill off a large portion of [[{{Muggles}} Ordinary Humans]]. While the Superheroes post-ComicBook/CivilWar now appear to look like [[SuperDickery Super Dicks]] who (while they used to keep those thoughts to themselves) would rather slam their heads into a steel wall instead of having to save our sorry asses on a weekly basis.

** Dump hazardous waste not in rural areas - but in ''cities''.



** Even in some universe? You're still evil.




to:

* Cities are ''death''traps and you would be better off living in a rural area:
** Despite that, StatisticallySpeaking, [[https://www.safehomesafe.com/why-urban-living-safer/ they're actually quite safer than rural or even suburban areas]], there's violent crime happening around ''every'' corner!
** Aliens, evil geniuses hell bent on world domination, CorruptCorporateExecutive types, the legions of Hell, monsters, or other such things will ''only'' appear in cities.
** All their buildings are made out of cardboard and paper mache and are ''constantly'' getting demolished every day. Though at the same time, they do seem to get repaired instantly so... there's that!
* Conversely, living in a city is great - since that means you might develop superpowers! Nobody ''ever'' develops superpowers in FlyoverCountry.
* ''ALL'' Cities are like New York City and have skylines very similar to it. ''No'' exceptions!
** Unless you specify you're on the west coast. Then all West Coast Cities are Los Angeles and maybe a bit of San Francisco.

** You shouldn't have someone cover for you because they will eventually want to live their own lives.



** Martin Luther King is right - you should work within the system to change it. Except this actually never works. So nonviolent protests don't solve anythin-wait, King ''actually believed'' that was a dead end?!
