Common Sense

This one was too good to pass up. I like Ben Witherington, and this post just about says it all, or at least better than a game based on Joel Osteen's writings. Here a few aphorism on Common Sense:


3. It's always darkest before dawn. So if you're going to steal your neighbor's newspaper, that's the time to do it.


4. Don't be irreplaceable. If you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.


5. Always remember that you're unique. Just like everyone else.


6. Never test the depth of the water with both feet.


7. If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of car payments.


10. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.


11. If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.


13. Some days you're the bug; some days you're the windshield.


14. Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.


17. Duct tape is like 'The Force'. It has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together.


18. There are two approaches to arguing with women. Neither one works.


And my all time favorite:
22. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.
