Autumn's Rules

Rule #1. Do not wear "sherpa" boots that are all furry and have tassles if they look ridiculous on you (and let me assure you, they probably do). They're called sherpa boots for a reason. They're for sherpas; not for walking around your nice cozy city.

Rule #2. If your hairdo can be found on an animal in nature (say a rooster or lion) it probably doesn't look good on your head.

Rule #3. While we're talking about hair, the shaggy "Beatles" cut only worked because it was the 60's and they were THE BEATLES. You are not a Beatle, and this is the year 2009. You look like an 80's Farrah Fawcet.

Rule #4. Do NOT bitch about smoky bars/pool halls if you are going to frequent such establishments. First, it's a BAR. Second, there are plenty of places that you can visit that don't allow smoking (including entire pool halls) if you feel so inclined. But seriously, your bitchiness would be like if I went to The Outback and got pissed because they served beef.

Rule #5. Just because you live in a priviledged country does not mean you're *entitled* to anything. Work for shit like the rest of us.

Rule #6. It is NOT your parents fault (99.9% of the time) that you're a shithead. You made that decision all on your own, and if you don't like it, change it. But just because you got spanked as a child does not make it OK for you to steal/murder/rape/be a shitty person/etc.

Rule #7. Do not dress your 10-15 year old like a hooker. There's a reason that America has no innocence anymore, and it's probably because your 10 year old has already given head and says "tits" on a regular basis.

Rule #8. Speaking of parenting, if you're going to actually have children, be a parent. If you in fact cannot take responsibility for the life you've just brought into the world, give the child to someone who can and will. Screwing up yet another generation of our youth shouldn't be an option.
