4. Never mix ammonia and chlorine-based products.
Never mix ammonia and chlorine-based products such as household bleach. It creates toxic chlorine gas.

6. While driving, if you're going speed limit or below....
Do not be driving in front of me on any street. Keep to the right. Futhermore, a green light means go. Do not stop.
Also, if you're at the grocery store, and you see one of your friends, don't block the aisle to speak to them. That's why Alexander Graham Bell invented the Telephone.
And do not walk against the light.
These are just some things I've nearly had my head explode over this weekend.
I have no idea if you've ever done any of these things. It's just a friendly reminder. :evilgrin:

8. Adding to Duckie's list:
When you come to a stop light, it is NOT necessary to stop 3 freakin' car lengths in back of the car stopped ahead of you.

When you need to cross a street that has a crosswalk, please USE the crosswalk. No not walk across the street, especially at night, wearing very dark clothes, away from the streetlight, because you were too damned lazy to walk the extra 10 feet to the crosswalk. Next time, you might not be so lucky and I may not see you before it's too late.

When driving down the freeway at high speed, please do not: put your makeup on, shave, style your hair, do your nails, dig into your purse/briefcase on the seat next to you while looking at said purse/briefcase and NOT at the road, and most especially, please do not drape the newspaper over your steering wheel and read it while drive 70 mph.

Thank you, and have a good day!

13. And to elaborate on Seattle Girl's first bit...
On the same hand you don't have to stop three inches from my bumper either. That makes me fucking crazy. Back off about six feet. You don't need to be closer!!

12. Have somebody to love that loves you in return.
And that includes physical love.

All those songs from the 1960s putting love over materialism can't be wrong.

Right??

15. If you are going to heat soup in the microwave,
take it out of the can first.

Do not take up knitting if you have cats.

Learn to identify poison ivy.

Do not drink 151-proof rum mixed with cherry Kool-Aid.

If your TV catches on fire, unplug it.
