As I've Matured

  • I've learned that you cannot make

  • someone love you. All you can do is

  • stalk them and hope they panic and give in.

  • I've learned that no matter how much I care,

  • some people are just assholes.

  • I've learned that it takes years

  • to build up trust, and it only takes

  • suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.

  • I've learned that you can get by

  • on charm for about fifteen minutes.

  • After that, you'd better have a big willy

  • or huge boobs.

  • I've learned that you shouldn't

  • compare yourself to others - they are

  • more screwed up than you think.

  • I've learned that you can keep vomiting

  • long after you think you're finished.

  • I've learned that we are responsible

  • for what we do, unless we are celebrities.

  • I've learned that regardless of

  • how hot and steamy a relationship is at

  • first, the passion fades, and there had better

  • be a lot of money to take its place.

  • I've learned that 99% of the time when something

  • isn't working in your house, one of your kids did it

  • I've learned that the people you care most

  • about in life are taken from you too soon

  • and all the less important ones just never go away.

  • I've learned to say "F--- 'em if they can't take a joke"

  • in 6 languages.
