2) Never start having regular sexual relations with anyone who has more problems than you.
It always sucks being the least crazy person in a relationship.

Fantastic work in writing this and thank you for sharing.

Yeah but the catch is that the one's with the problems are usually the freakiest.

Troof! Sex with a balanced person is, well, balanced :sad:

I'm up to my arse in Brexit Numpties, but I want more.  Target-rich environments are the new sexy.

Cain, you deserve much praise for that. 

The last rule reminds me of the rules of life from Teen Wolf

1. Never sleep less than twelve hours a day.
2. Never get involved with a girl who has a tattoo of a dagger
3. Never play cards with anybody who has the name of a city (the Cincinnati Kid, Chicago Jim, etc)

Regarding the last rule, I'd like to point out that there is a famous swindler from Omaha history who was known as 'Canada Bob'. Supposedly he introduced the game of Three Card Monte to Omaha in the late 1800's.

Yeah, thats the one. Its been a while since I'd read about him, so I guess I got the name wrong.

Some more rules for life:

1.  No good deed goes unpunished.

2.  If one person fucks you over and another one listens to you scream about it, you should punish the one who tried to help, as it prevents the need for admitting to yourself that you made a mistake trusting the person who fucked you over.

3.  Friend = Sucker

4.  The Scott Adams "What is more likely" rule.  If your boss wants to "restructure" your benefits, is it more likely that he is going to suddenly get generous, or that he is about to chew away at your compensation like a weasel on speed?

5.  Human Resources is NOT your friend.  Period.

Yeah but the catch is that the one's with the problems are usually the freakiest.   

I disagree. The more hangups someone has, the less likely the chance that they'll put them aside to explore new terrain. Unless you have some one really screwed up, like with a daddy complex or an alcoholic, which in that case, you're a predator. Maybe a satisfied predator, but...
