“Rule one of the universe: don’t be an idiot.”
Johnson: The next best thing to knowing something is knowing where to find it.

“No such thing as a short recovery” is a line from a song that I repeat to myself quite often. Sometimes when things aren’t going right, and it seems like I can’t find a way to make it better, I just say that to myself and it helps keep me going.

6. When you are getting pissed:
—-“I’m getting pissed!”

1. When you are tired of everyone standing around playing with themselves:
