Pre-New Years Post

So, uh, it's been quite a while since I posted in this thing.

I'm starting work on a new zine and I decided that I want contributions from everyone who reads this. Inspired by the monthly column in Esquire, the zine is going to run in the vein of "What I've Learned." It's sort of like the 100 things about me meme a few years back, but instead of

actually, gabeo may debate you on that "obsolecence" thing

1. There is something extremely liberating and amazing about peeing outside. The same, however, does not in anyway hold true for pooping.
2.physics is phun. at least the loud, bright parts. experiment with it. and even the less flashy parts are fun too.
3. on that note, knowing how things work is a lot of the time even cooler than just seeing them work, or using them.
4. get outside. even if it is raining or snowing or freezing or it looks like you won't have fun. cause it isn't true, cause if its raining you can splash in puddles, if its snowing you can build a snowman, and if its just freezing cold out, your beard will freeze and thats pretty damn cool.
5. boredom =/= cooldom. even if something sounds "stupid," do it anyway. you'll have more fun than just sitting on your ass.
6. when you have to pee, empty your bladder.

..and on that note

1. Don't let your ego get in the way of life

1. The key to success in anything is to minimize stress. Stress always equals failure.
2. Do what you want, not what you're told to do. You make the rules.
3. Remember that most of what you say is bullshit.
4. Laugh (at everything).
5. Whatever is in your head, get it out. Express it, or it just stays there.
6. Remember that the people around you are people, not robots (they have feelings). On that note, a service industry worker is still human, treat them as such.
7. Think.
8. Good music is not to be found on the radio, but in local scenes, where the musicians still have passion.
9. Wear a coat when it's cold.

I totally want a copy of this one.

I thought more about it, and I have more to add, and change the ordering
