All I have in mine is my wallet, my keys, change, my cell phone, and my DS. It also has a flat pocket, so I put my loose paper there, along with a pen.
You sir, have TOO much stuff in your bag.
This is the size of bag that I have. It's just a small shoulder sling
do you have a penis? If no then it's ok if you use that bag

Probably 2/3 of guys in NYC have messenger bags. Who gives a fuck. Do what you like, use what you like, wear what you like.

Oh, take aspirin to reduce redness. Great for redness caused by shaving, pimple play or unknown.
Get sleep. It's so fucking important.
Don't waste time caring about people who don't care about you.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
I was thinking about starting a similar thread myself, actually.
Pro-tip: Homemade Windex/Daily Shower Cleaner. Use some White Vinegar, a few squirts of Jet Dry liquid, and water as a spray for your glass surfaces. (Use about 5 times as much water as vinegar, though you can play around with this depending on the job). Wipe dry if using on mirrors or tables, spray mixture before a shower and rinse any surfaces where the stuff touched. Spraying and leaving it after a shower may help erode any caulking present, so try to avoid.

everybody knows you suck (unless you are hot girl).. so don't waste your time trying to prove something.
Long strips of painter's tape can be used in place of tacks to hang posters without having to wreck your posters and walls. Just make sure the tape is flush with the back of the poster, so it doesn't unfurl later.
A great way to begin to understand how people get to draw fantastic drawings is to experiment with pencil pressure, and the kinds of lines you draw at different pressures to the paper. To draw a nice line, focus on where you want the line to go, and make sure you apply the correct pressure as you draw it. Focus on keeping it smooth. EDIT: A 45 degree angle is the best to draw at. It is the angle recommended and stressed in blueprint drawing.
Cleaning is a very helpful way to destress, because you're doing something while you clean, and being organized is a key proponent in lowered stress levels. Having a clean room is very conducive to work. Just make sure you keep it that way with small management. (Putting things back after you've used them).

When learning another language avoid looking things up in dictionaries while having conversations.
It slow/stops the flow of conversation, and it is much better to learn to describe something using smaller familiar words than looking up a word you will forget 2 minutes later.
for example:
You want to talk about Elephants in Chinese:
'Big, Animal, Grey, Big nose, etc....'
Then later that day look up elephant and learn it.
------
When traveling or staying in hotels/guesthouses in warm damp countries... and you need to wash socks (they take forever to dry) try clipping them to the ceiling fan before you go to sleep. They will be dry in the morning.
-----
Things to always carry in foreign countries.
1. Pen
2. Tissue
-----
Always have an extra toothbrush if you have the chance of hooking up.
Women will usually give it up again in the morning if they don't feel they have morning breath...
-----
Best place to hide money in Asia is under your shoe insole. Feet are considered dirty and nobody is gonna be digging around in there...

Lotta great stuff here, thanks for sharing. English is not my mother language so dont be so harsh on me.
Why the world is round? So that when you see bad thing in front of you, you can turn around and still walking forward.
If problem is big and seems impossible, take a step back and look at it from afar, different angle.
Listen to people advise but do not follow them until you whole-heartedly understand the consequences.
I'll be back for more.

1. Your first thought tends to be the correct one.
2. Don't believe everything you think, especially after that first thought.
3. Don't watch the news. Bad things have been happening since the dawn of time.
4. Turn off all your electricial equipment at night, especially your mobile phone.. You'll sleep better.
5. If you have an understanding of something you don't have to accept it, like it, nor hate it. But if you have a problem with something you lack understanding. Trust me, it's never the other person.
6. Write/type in the way you think. "Ostentatious" language only impresses the simple minded. Not only that you're not going to be much use to folks if the majority of people don't know what you're writing/talking about.

master the use of condoms before they are needed for real.
I actually know the "Wear Sunscreen/Sunscreen Song" by heart, it's such a great piece of advice. Especially the "Get to know your parents, you'll never know when they'll be gone for good" line is really good advice!
Here are few other things I collected:
This one, I think, is actually something a poster on here wrote, don't really remember who though [Edit: I googled this and it turns out Steve Jobs said that]:
"Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart."
And these are Bruce Lee quotes (as far as that Digg story was true):
As you think, so shall you become.
Its not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential.
If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, youll never get it done.
To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person.
Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against.
Im not in this world to live up to your expectations and youre not in this world to live up to mine.
Showing off is the fools idea of glory.
To hell with circumstances; I create opportunities.
Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it.
I also have a general motto (which was already mentioned before) which I think everyone should live by: Treat other people the way you want to be treated!

Don't cling to pride; if you continue to work at something for the sole reason of believing you must finish anything you start, just stop. This will save you a lot of time and effort. And it's applicable to relationships.
If you get pulled over for speeding, a convincing argument is that you have explosive diarrhea.
If you get pulled over for speeding, as a rule of thumb, turns your interior lights on (if it's night), have your license, registration, and insurance ready. Admit to speeding and thank the officer for pulling you over. Don't yell or talk back. Ever.
You'll never get yesterday back.
To get the most of of life, you have to fail at many things. It's the only way to know what you're truly good at. You also get a lot of experience along the way.
Someone who tells you the secrets of everyone around you is the same someone telling your secrets to everyone.
A spouse's heart is more powerful than their brain.
Change is internal. Any external force you can exert on another person lasts only in the short term, if at all. The person you know from day one will most likely be the same person on their last day.
Society loves to be married. Make sure you do, too.
Wait a few weeks after deciding on getting a pet. If you still want it, get it.
Adopt a pet, if possible.
Learn to say goodbye to a bad friend.
Don't worry. Either act in a way that gives you a resolution or drop it.
If you find yourself complaining about the same thing every single day, the first thing you need to do tomorrow is fix the problem.
Time is on your side only if you learn to master it. Otherwise it speeds up and doesn't tell you.
The present is boring if you regret the past and fear the future.
Never drink the last beer if you didn't buy the case. Ever.

I don't need your validation or approval, so STFU.
- Nothing worth having comes easy. Things generally don't fall into your lap, you gotta work for them. Goes hand in hand with:
- A moment spend wishing is a moment waster. If you want to be able to have or do something, take steps to get it instead of wishing you already had it.
Sometimes it helps to adopt a mentality of "abundance" for example in relationships with people. That boy/girl/man/woman is not "the one" nor "unique" or "one of a kind" don't be too nervous when trying to interact with them, also don't be too broken up about it when things don't pan out the way you'd hoped. There will always be a next one. It is statistically impossible to avoid meeting compatible mates, unless you spend all of your time in some cave cutting your arms and crying about how noone wants you.

The opposite of love is not hate. It is indifference. When you hate someone, it means that you still care (for whatever reason).

Subscribing for the knowledge.
I got a few simple ideas that I live by:
-Eat fresh/raw veggies once a day, never skip a day.
-Sleep early, wake up early.
-Don't drink alcohol on monday, tuesday or wedensday, ever.
-Morning after a long drinking night, wait an hour before eating or drinking anything.
-Don't lie to your GF, for any reason whatsoever.
-Be friends with the guy one everone else teases.
-Some people arent as smart as you think.
-Keep your enemies close.
-See to it that your bank balance increases every month. If it doesn't, stop spending.
-Don't be paranoid, but be always wary of the people around you.
-Don't talk about your weapons to anyone.
-Don't talk shit to people, a simple serious raised eyebrow means business.
-If everyone else is doing it, do something else.
-If people are talking about it, it's too late.

Look at the gas gauge on the car. There will be a graphic of a pump and an arrow indicating which side of the car the tank is located.
That is actually VERY cool.
