Great/funny sayings/philosophies - nick crisp - 20-10-13
I love comic sayings and philosophies, kinda collect them, so when I saw these on another forum, I shamelessly stole them; under the title:
20 Top Zen Teachings
1. Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me, for the path is narrow. In fact, just foc off and leave me alone.
2. Sex is like air. It's not that important unless you aren't getting any.
3. No one is listening until you pass wind.
4. Always remember you're unique. Just like everyone else.
5. Never test the depth of the water with both feet.
6. If you think nobody cares whether you're alive or dead, try missing a couple of mortgage payments.
7. Before you criticise someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticise them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
8. If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.
9. Give a man a fish, and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.
10. If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.
11. Some days you are the dog, some days you are the tree.
12. Don't worry, it only seems kinky the first time.
13. If you lend someone £20 and never see that person again, it was probably well worth it.
14. Good judgement comes from bad experience...and most of that comes from bad judgement.
15. A closed mouth gathers no foot.
16. There are two excellent theories for arguing with women. Neither one works.
17. Generally speaking, you aren't learning much when your lips are moving.
18. Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
19. We are born naked, wet and hungry, and get slapped on our backside - then things just keep getting worse.
20. Never under any circumstances take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.
Have seen some good ones on here too, anybody got others?

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - strawberries in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming - WOO HOO! What a Ride!"
Give a man a match, and he'll be warm for a minute; set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life

Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
Tell a man there are 300 billion stars in the universe and he'll believe you, but tell him a bench has wet paint on it and he'll have to touch to be sure.

Married sex is like being a caged lion in a zoo. Every so often a keeper comes along and throws you half a dead animal. It's welcomed, pleasant enough and satisfies a need, but every so often you get the urge to go out and stalk your prey, hunt it down and take it for yourself.

lol grreat stuff blokes. mark twains is one of my favourites, and very good advice in fact.
not a saying as such, but i remember reading a road test in streetfighters about a spondon special, and when the bloke was descibing the frame he said " i havnt seen a swinging arm like that since the drummer in def leppard did a drum solo".
and during a road test for bike magazine where we took the sports litre bikes to the nurburgring and i was chasing ducati 1098 riding rupert paul on the gixxer thou as he repeatedly nearly got wiped out by a german in a porsche, i wrote "i was sweating like a blind lesbian in a fish shop.." and they printed it.
you just cant beat innapropraite humour can ya..

My personal favourite...
When I die I want to go peacefully in my sleep like my Grandad, not screaming and crying like the passengers on his bus.

Lemmy came up with my favourite two:
"When you're on the way up you meet lots of people. Don't fuck 'em, 'cos you meet them on the way down as well."
And
"Do unto others as they would do unto you, but do it first."
