200. The justice and police system works on a "cooldown" system; if you evade capture for a long enough time proportionate to your crimes, you will be absolved of all charges.

201. Similarly, if you evade detection for long enough after being spotted in enemy territory, the guards will eventually forget you exist or that there was any breach.

202. People come in three varieties when it comes to swimming. Some can swim and sink underwater freely without the need for air or to fight against buoyancy. Some can swim at the surface but are so incapable of fighting buoyancy as to be unable to dive without special equipment. And some will die from making contact with water at all.

203. You can carry up to 99 copies of any single given item, but you cannot carry more than a certain amount of different items.

204. If your boss ends up resigning from his or her job, be wary that the company doesn't countdown to an explosion.

205. Guards are often very nearsighted, unable to see you unless you're within just a few yards. Similarly, they are often deaf and nontactile, and as such will not notice you even if you are behind them breathing on their neck.

You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!
