Default Lets start an 'advice for life' thread

I reckon we should start a thread where we can post snippets of advice for all subsimmers to see to help make life a bit more bearable. If possible also post where you reeived this gem of information.

I'll start:

'Keep dry and away from children.'

Seen on the back of a box of matches.

Don't post threads like these on subsim. It only encourages them.

Just thought of it after reading your post.

Be wary of giving advice, wise men don't need it, fools won't heed it!
