The Third Rule

1 Don't ask a barber if you need a hair cut. 2 The Second Law of Thermodynamics. ( see here.  www.livescience.com/50941-second-law-thermodynamics.html)  This is still my favourite. Though the 1st is also quite good. 3 Everything is more complicated than you think it is. (see Rule 2 ) 4 The more money, time or effort someone puts into selling you something the less likely you are to really need it. 5 Human Beings are fundamentally good. (despite all the evidence to the contrary. See rule 3 ) 6 Never Post Angry. NPA. ( for "post" read Email, Text, Converse, Argue ). 7. You are not as clever as you think you are. ( for "you" read "we".  And make the appropriate mental changes to the Grammar) 8. Probably best to do your laundry when it is raining. 9. When endeavouring to do something creative, let it happen. Don't force it. 10. Never trust a headline with numbers in it. Any headline with a number in it is a bad headline. In that it is probably wrong at...

Confirmation bias is the most powerful force in this or any galaxy.  Side note. This is very easy to prove all you need to do is go looking for it.  Side side note.  This blog is proof of this, Murphy's law for instance, only matters/exist when things go wrong. 

Satire doesn't work on Nazis. Or any extremist political party or philosophy.

Rule (number?)  If you have a single simple solution to a problem then it's probably, read absolutely, wrong.

New Year's Eve is not a good day to make promises to yourself.  Nor New Year's Day. 

1 Don't.  2 Please Don't.  3 If you going to, be nice.  4 It is not a place for decisions or opinions or comfortable pondering.  5 Don't

Any political pointed meme posted on any social media that is intended to solicit encourage or change a political belief or system will fail to do so in any way. In all likelihood it will have the opposite effect.

Never trust a headline with numbers in it. Any headline with a number in it is a bad headline. In that it is probably wrong at a very fundamental level.

New rule for the whole world to live by. Ok it may not be a rule. But. My blog my rules. Economics is always the reason.

Sarcasm does not work on the Internet. This is particularly true in the comment section.  Unless you are very careful with it's use.

They were entire generations of people who have at some point believed that rules were bad. Understandable I admit, questioning, challenge someone else's rules and your own rules is good. But what if there is a natural selection of rules?

It has been sometime since I did this blog . Things have changed since my last entry . I feel the need to address the world a little more vigorously than ever before. This is a blog about rules, my rules. Absent minded, abstract, theoretical, pondering,  but rules never the less.

New year New war At some point in any given year someone somewhere will start a war. The only question is who. This year who will put the "W" in year. YEWAR A new word. For the world. Meaning a year in which a war started.

There are seven shades of ball shit.

Possible rule The more you try to convince your self you need something the less likely you are to use it. I tunes anyone?
