Do not look down on or wish ill upon others.
An extension of this that I'm considering due to recent events: Do not celebrate ill that has befallen others.

3) Ritalin is dangerous I don't care if it help you

4) keep reading

5) people are assholes, deal with it

Understand Justice and carry it out.

Remember that justice can just be swallowing your own pride at times.

Be active, not receptive, because otherwise nothing ever gets done.

The thing about making witty signature lines is that it first needs to actually be witty.

  • Equality before justice
  • If one does not explain oneself, one is wrong, until one explains oneself
  • If a person says "look it it from my viewpoint", they are most likely incapable of realizing what they are doing
  • Do to others as you want others to do unto you.
    I need another 10-15 years before I can say anything, except the last one, the last one is something I will break when I get the chance, because people do not treat me as I want to treat them.

1.- My first self imposed rule was to not commit suicide, this was after reading a book about suicide.

2.- While not a "rule", I never discriminate anyone, and to be honest until I went to college to study psychology I couldn't understand why discrimination happened.

3.- fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.

4.- Hope dies the last (yes, even after me).

5.- At some point I had a rule to not have sex until marriage... I broke the rule at the first chance I had.

There are no sane people. Only those who know they are insane and those who don't.

Altough that might not count so...

  • Ridicule now will turn into whimper in future.
  • Knowledge is power. Power is freedom. Freedom is happiness.
  • Nice guys finish last.
  • First victim is of life truth.
  • Man's soul is black, with white cloth to hide it.

Yeah, I am pretty cynical about life.

Do Justice wherever you can, whenever you can. Hard.

  • Don't betray your friends, under any circumstances.
  • Fight tyranny and oppose authority.

Keeping these two constraints in place, nothing is true and everything's permitted. tongue

You exist because we allow it and you will end because we demand it.

  • Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
  • Don't expect a reward or gratitude for your good deeds. Good Feels Good, and that is enough.
  • Always expect the worst, because that's usually what's gonna happen. If something good happens, it's one of those rare exceptions.
  • Everyone has the right to what they believe. Only when those beliefs impede the freedom and happiness of others can you take cause against them.
  • Always maintain a proper level of hygiene. You don't want to smell like rotting fruit, do you?
  • Try not to be judgmental of others. Being judgmental towards yourself is OK, though.
  • Never hold prejudices. (Okay, maybe being prejudiced against the Nazis is okay.)
    • If you hold a prejudice, work towards eliminating it.
  • Accept the blame for your fuck-ups. Accept the blame for others' fuck-ups, because it's probably your fault too. Real men take the burdens of the world on their shoulders and carry them with pride and fortitude.
  • Always examine your life and your thoughts.
  • Speak no evil, do no evil, think no evil.
    • Excise all evil thoughts and desires from your mind and heart. If any such thoughts and desires spring up, tear them down at once, for a moment of laxity spawns a lifetime of depravity.
  • Show no weakness. Real men do not squirm in pain at the slightest scratch.
  • Emotions— all emotions— must be kept in check at all times. Real men do not express emotion, no matter what.
  • Mental illness is never an excuse for anything. Your Aspergers Syndrome does not excuse you from politeness and courtesy. Your depression is no excuse for wangst or sadness. Real men don't let such things weaken them: no, real men fight them tooth and claw!
  • Never seek help from anyone, because their help will only slow you down. Real men work alone, because real men can do anything if they set their minds to it!
  • Never hurt anyone if you can help it, but if threatened, always fight dirty and aim to maim.
  • Pain isn't a negative stimulus. Pain is a sign of one's imperfection.
    • It is in pain, suffering and degradation that one finds salvation from one's imperfection.
  • Be the best at what you do, or don't do it at all.
  • Perfection must be pursued and attained in all things. Flaws in you and your work must be excised and destroyed. If you are not perfect, you are worthless.
  • Do not kill yourself. Do not even entertain fantasies of suicide. Weakness of purpose is unacceptable!
  • Even if there is no hope for you, nothing good in your future and no meaning to your life, keep going, and hope for a death with dignity.

Guess how much of my creed I live up to. Answer: NONE OF IT!

Not so much a creed as personal maxims I always seem to end up repeating to myself:-

"Possession is nine-tenths of the law. The other tenth is a good lawyer."

"Shit will not be taken at this desk."

"A million years of evolution and half the time we still act no better than a big troop of bare-arsed baboons."

"As Plato, Descartes and Kant all failed to find convincing explanations for [x], it's unlikely that [my name] of North London ever will."

"Blessed is he who expects no gratitude, for he will not be disappointed."

"I believe in God the Father Almighty, and in Jesus Christ his only Son. It's a gut feeling, I can't explain why."

"Well, it's a lifestyle"
