6	* Your child isn't born badass like you? Well then there isn't anything you can do. Just leave him with your eccentric friend in a small room full of pointy objects and molten metal. You're too busy to train him yourself so don't worry about it.
7	* Crippling an animal for life and then making him dependent on you for basic survival is a good thing.
8	* Approaching your crush never works. Either let them approach you or dangle them from a tree.
9	* The only way to prove that you can live in peace and harmony with the opposing side of a war is by killing the opposing side's leader.
10	* The only way for people to like you is to enlist yourself into a war you are too young to fight in.
11	* Losing a leg and waking up from a coma isn't a big deal. Just walk it off.
12	* Abuse a nice and well-mannered child all you like. He'll still help you, because he's ''that'' good.
13	* Punching people is a great way to show your love for them. [[SarcasmMode No way is it domestic abuse at all.]]
14	* The only way to get the approval of your abusive dad is to [[HeroicSacrifice nearly kill yourself saving his life]].

16	[[AC: ''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon2'']]
17	* Animal abuse is okay if it's done to sheep. Those things are indestructible.
18	* War is the only option.
19	* Never try to see the humanity in a potential threat and try to avoid a war through negotiation '''or your loved one will pay with his life.'''

21	[[AC: ''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragonTheHiddenWorld'']]
22	* You learn how to tame a wild animal, that means you have full ownership of that animal's genus. Anyone else is in possession of said animals and then you're a target.
23	* Your people wouldn't leave your ancestral home when fire-breathing monsters were attacking them every other night for three-hundred years, but they ''will'' leave if those monsters are your friends now.
24	* Crippling an animal and then making them dependent on you with a prosthetic is okay. Drugging them to make them open to suggestion isn't.
25	* Loving things other than a spouse or child is for naive tinkle boys. As are dreams of bettering the world.
26	* Hoes before bros.
27	* Six years is long enough for your cause to have changed the entire world. If it hasn't, it's hopeless and you're a selfish idiot for trying any further.
28	* If you're captured by the enemy, just give them the information that they want and walk on free back to your allies. They surely won't get pissed at you for ratting them out.
29	* There is ''nothing'' -- not family, not friends, not dreams, not a pursuit of a better world -- more important than physical safety. Hiding away in the dark for the rest of your life and forcing everyone around you to do the same is vastly preferable to even the possibility that someone somewhere might hurt you.
30	* The love of your life is the first attractive person you see, and you should discard all other relationships and responsibilities to this end. It doesn't matter whether the two of you have chemistry, if they're nice to you, or if your relationship amounts to about three days.

35	* If you see a mundane evidence of an accident happen but someone tells you an unbelievable explanation with no tangible proof, [[ArkhamsRazor believe that person because he'll be right]].
36
37	[[AC:''WesternAnimation/GiftOfTheNightFury'']]
38	* Breaking into your neighbor's houses and leaving live explosives there in the middle of winter in the far north will have no lasting consequences for you, especially if you didn't know they were explosive in the first place.
39	* Make sure to know what your pets want for [[YouMeanXmas Not-Christmas]] or they'll destroy it right after they use it once.
40	* You don't want invading animals and they harass you constantly. When you want them around they will leave. Stop wanting things.
41
42	[[AC:''WesternAnimation/DawnOfTheDragonRacers'']]
43	* Whenever you play a game, always expect one of them to cheat.
44	* If you're left in charge of your tribe as a ruler, screw democracy and force your people to follow outdated traditions. Also, if you try to order them to follow said outdated traditions and they disobey you without your consent, expect your superior to possibly chide you, and not the people who actually went against your orders.
45	* Disobeying your appointed leader will issue no consequences.
46
47	[[AC:''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragonHomecoming'']]
48	* All children are either insolent brats or morons.
49	* Revising history is fine if it keeps the kids entertained for 20 minutes.
50	* [[TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior Children building traps with arrows and maces and fire for when your friends come to visit]] isn't worrying. It's adorable.
51	* Let your child bang their skulls against everything. They'll be fine.
52	* If your spouse doesn't like you talking about other loved ones, they're in the right and you're in the wrong and you should stop doing that immediately.

58	* [[AdultsAreUseless Adults]] have the memory capacity of goldfish.
59	* Vikings were anti-intellectual morons who strived to be as unpleasant as possible.
60	* Vikings would disown and banish their own children at the drop of a hat for the first sign of weakness as their laws demanded. [[ArtisticLicenseHistory Straight-up fact.]]

79	* People are just a PowderKegCrowd waiting to happen and can be set off by anything and anyone, even if that someone is a crotchety old bastard with an entitlement complex [[HatedByAll who no one likes]].
80	* [[HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood Child abuse is funny.]]
81	* TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior is funny.
82	* When you find a new species of dragon, make sure they all either have "wing" or "death" in the name. [[SarcasmMode Not only is it creative, it won't get old at all.]]

90	* Listening to the founder and expert on a certain skill on how to acquire that skill is for wimps. Go with your gut no matter how often it doesn't work.

93	* No matter how much you accomplish doing things your own way, people will still expect better of you under a narrow standard.
94	* History will only remember you for how cultural standards will want to remember you by and not the truth.

100	* Expect the worst in people and those expectations will be right... and also wrong. In-fact don't expect anything at all.
101
102	[[AC: "[[Recap/DragonsRidersOfBerkS1E12Thawfest Thawfest]]"]]
103	* Enjoying your victory after years of losing will make you just as bad as the guy who gloats non-stop and sorely needs his ego deflated.
104	* Your opponent's dad is a dick, so it would be dishonorable to beat him in a fair contest.
105	* Being a loser will make you attractive to the opposite sex.
106
107	[[AC: "[[Recap/DragonsRidersOfBerkS1E15Twinsanity Twinsanity]]"]]
108	* The lives of one two-headed dragon is worth more than preventing a war in a culture that only a few months prior would have gladly killed it for sport.
109
110	[[AC: "[[Recap/DragonsRidersOfBerkS1E16DefiantOne Defiant One]]"]]
111	* Getting yourself and someone else stranded in enemy territory in a blind fit of spite isn't worth apologizing for. Just pretend nothing happened and the person you dragged into your mess will forgive you anyway. Even better, blame your acquaintance for your own actions. They will usually just accept it as the status quo, like they've done for years.

119	* Training is unhealthy.

126	* If a woman is ever angry, it's because of institutional sexism.
127	* If an idiot with NoListeningSkills comes up with an idea to fix a problem that they caused due to all of their other ideas, ''this one'' is guaranteed to work.

130	* Make sure you have experience with taming and riding an animal before you ask someone to teach you how to tame and ride that animal.
131	* During war times, having more of a crack-team of people riding fire-breathing monsters isn't a priority.
132	* You aren't a hypocrite when you try to keep someone from learning a skill in a safe, controlled environment when you yourself had to learn that skill under a time limit with limited resources.
