6. NO PET STORES!!!!
Unless you know for sure the pet store only gets animals from ethical breeders. Buying animals from pet stores encourages "puppy mills" and other unethical breeding practices.

Anyone who wants a puppy should check out the animal shelters or breed rescue societies. Or go directly to a responsible breeder, if you must have a certain breed.

5. Beer
You can multi-task and drink beer while you are playing video games or DUing.

Let me ask you something. Why do capitalize all of your 'L's? Is it just a style thing or is there some deep, dark, sinister reason why you do it?

19. That's a good one, too
Thanks for clearing up the 'L' thing. I was thinking it was some subliminal, hypnotic thing that you use to brainwash other members of the board. That's what too much LSD in your youth will do for you.

11. Walk around in your underwear.
Unless you do this normally, of course.

Be amused by the smells and sounds of your own farts.

24. Get real high/drunk and watch Fantasy Mission Force

Then call your wife on the phone to explain to her how the leaders of the Allied forces in WWII were Abraham Lincoln and Robert Forster.
