Never trust anyone who ever wore a mullet. Never trust anyone under 30. Anti-authoritarians are simply (simple?) people who don't like to pay traffic fines. Respect is our default positions-- it's actually disrespect that has to be earned.

38. No, never go to a doctor. They always want to find something wrong with you, and

generally something that's expensive and painful for them to try to fix. And you're generally as bad off after they "fix" something as you were before the damn doctors got their hands on you. Redstone

50. Things happen for a reason.

And the ever popular.... What goes around, comes around. And then the more obscure one that is ever popular in our family.."Those cars are just spaced far enough apart." This is said whenever you're trying to turn onto a street and you're explaining to your passengers why you won't pull out into traffic.
