Rule #1,098

If you bend space/time too much, it might just break.

Rule #1,095

Exercise hurts, but it's worth the effort.

Rule #1,017

The lack of the internet cripples modern humanity (we're addicts).

If I Leave Here Tomorrow, Will You Still Remember Me?

Tomorrow's rule will be the end of this blog for the foreseeable future. This a decision I've argued back and forth with myself, but, with my current load of responsibilities, a daily updated blog is something which I can no longer continue to maintain. There may be rules at some point in the future again, but 1,000 rules seems like a good place to stop for now. For all of you who have been faithful followers of this blog and enjoyed it, thank you for your devotion. For all of you who have been faithful followers of this blog and not enjoyed it, I might ask why, but I suppose I owe you thanks as well. There are many trite words that could be said, none of which might sufficiently express my feelings at this, an end of an era in my life; in earnest simplicity, I will merely say goodbye. I'll miss you all.

Rule #997

Christmas can start as early as you want (as long as it's after Halloween).

Rule #983

There's nothing quite as wonderful for Evil Wanderer as the look on a child's face when you run out of candy on Halloween.

Rule #963

87% of Reality TV shows are 74% fake (But don't take my word for it).

Rule #841

Unfortunately for Rule #840, everything is important to someone.

Rule #835

Graffiti, like pretty much anything else, can be art.

Rule #831

If Rule #830 wasn't true, culture, for better or worse, wouldn't change.

Rule #822

Sometimes you just have to suffer.

Rule #793 (Beginning of Theme Month & Why Dogs Are Man's Best Friends Week)

Why Dogs Are Man's Best Friends Rule #1:

Dogs are loyal.

Rule #790

Rule #695 (Beginning of Crazy Celebrity Guest Week #2 & Sequel Month)

For the next four weeks, I'm going to be revisiting past theme and guest weeks for a second round. Join me, won't you?

Crazy Celebrity Guest Rule #8 (from Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino)

If you want to look somewhat like The Situation (which is gonna be pretty hard), you need to get that protein in your diet.

Rule #676

Much like TV tropes (and Wikipedia), Cracked is also a trap that will keep you clicking for hours.
