Do you make up rules for youself? I think you do. Some make sense, like: - No drinking alone. - Sodas are only allowed when hungover. - Candy is not allowed, except on rare occasions like Christmas or Halloween. - No coffee after 21:00. - Don't eat with your elbows on the table. - Avoid talking about trains. Others can be a little more personal or obscure, like: - Don't touch your face in public. Beard stroking is ok. - When exiting the library, follow the straight cobblestone pattern until it it ends. - Tea caddies must stand in a straight line. - Front and back door must be checked 10 times before leaving house/flat. - Radio must stand perpendicular to the computer. - Never buy anything from a café, unless you're travelling. - All cereal must be wet before eating can begin. What rules to you adhere to in daily life? Edit: What makes you, an otherwise sane person, act irrationally? prinneh fucked around with this message at 02:02 on Oct 28, 2015 |

Mumpy Puffinz posted:- Don't eat with your elbows on the table. I wrote a very nice reply to you and the app crashed, it must hate my posting. Anyway, no, I don't have problems regarding train talk, because I avoid it as a rule :/ I just like travelling on trains, I don't know any models or have tiny trains in my house, but I've noticed if you start talking about trains people look at you like you're retarded. I thought it might be interesting to hear about some of your more obscure or nonsense rules. Many things can be considered a rule, some make sense like wiping after a poo poo or not wearing socks in sandals, but others are just habits that have become so ingrained you're compelled to follow them. Rituals might be a good word for it too. Like, I know the plane won't crash if I don't read the safety pamphlet, but I haven't so far been able to not read it. It's patterns, in a way, do something enough times and doing it differently feels wrong.

- One should strive to act with compassion and empathy towards all creatures in accordance with reason. - The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions. - One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone. - The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo your own. - Beliefs should conform to our best scientific understanding of the world. We should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit our beliefs. - People are fallible. If we make a mistake, we should do our best to rectify it and resolve any harm that may have been caused. - Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word - Do not give opinions or advice unless you are asked. - Do not tell your troubles to others unless you are sure they want to hear them. - When in another's lair, show them respect or else do not go there. - If a guest in your lair annoys you, treat them cruelly and without mercy. - Do not make sexual advances unless you are given the mating signal. - Do not take that which does not belong to you, unless it is a burden to the other person and they cry out to be relieved. - Acknowledge the power of magic if you have employed it successfully to obtain your desires. If you deny the power of magic after having called upon it with success, you will lose all you have obtained. - Do not complain about anything to which you need not subject yourself. - Do not harm little children. - Do not kill non-human animals unless you are attacked or for your food. - When walking in open territory, bother no one. If someone bothers you, ask them to stop. If they do not stop, destroy them.

- respect passion, mock soullessness - make it work, then good, then fast - design is how it works, not how it looks - you ain't going to need it - make one thing do one thing - the only enemy is apathy - look it up - know what you're spending

www posted:op u sound like a total bore Of course I am a loving bore, I made a thread to hear more about what personal rules goons live by! I think it's interesting, even though replies have been a little lacking. I should probably add "put own threads out of their misery sooner rather than later" to my list, but I am really am interested in answers. Think of it like cognitive therapy, if that helps, the examination of your personal habits, rules and rituals in the attempt to understand why you think and act the way you do in certain situations. chaosbreather posted:- respect passion, mock soullessness These are good all rounders and probably correspond better to the thread title than my op, but I'd much rather hear about why you think cracking a hard boiled egg on a metal surface will ruin the taste or why you think it's complete apeshit to eat a banana from the wrong end. prinneh fucked around with this message at 01:52 on Oct 28, 2015 |

Nope, you've probably got a bunch of rules regarding how you smoke it, what type you smoke, what makes it taste better or worse, when you smoke it, where it is nice to smoke it, what you do if you've had too much, what is best when you get hungry from smoking it, etc. Drugs are like the mother of fk'ed up rules and rituals.
