Contemporary Adult Commandments: Tread softly because you tread on my memes

Alright, so Titab is following one of those chains you get on the internet (chain, spam, crap-thread, or whatever you want to call it), although it has now been renamed to meme (term coined by R. Dawkins). Anyhow, I found this one fun so I will reply it, tho I wont nominate anyone to do it from now on.


"Instructions: If you got this meme it means you are a contemporary adult (a thirty-something) or soon you will be one (I am even including 25ish in here!). If this is not the case, it only means the person that passed you the meme can't read, thus you are allowed to skip it.

The general idea is to give out 10 things you *must* do before you become and old bore. Commandments should be based on your *broad* experience of life, that is, a collection of wise-men DOs (but not DONTs!). After you finish the commandments, nominate at least 5 fellows who should share their knowledge of life (ha!).

A kind note for the reader: Please don't be a child and take offense from any of the items. If you do, lock your self in the toilet and scream for a while, nobody wants your shit in the comments."

  1. Before you turn 30, thou shouldest have read an "intellectual book" even if you hate it, just so you can brag about it (Note: DaVinci Code does not count)
  2. Before you turn 30, thou shouldest have slept with a (girl) friend of yours
  3. Before you turn 30, thou shouldest have slept with the girlfriend of a friend of yours
  4. Before you turn 30, thou shouldest have realized what is wrong with your country, be able to say it aloud but love it nevertheless
  5. Before you turn 30, thou shouldest have a big fart in a public place by "accident"
  6. Before you turn 30, thou shouldest have at least one of each of the following: Blog, Email acocunt, private website, myspace website, deviantart website, flickr account, facebook account, comic in your rss reader, rss reader.
  7. Before you turn 30, thou shouldest have lived alone at least once
  8. Before you turn 30, thou shouldest have stop getting money from your parents
  9. Before you turn 30, thou shouldest have fallen in love with the wrong person, and REALLY learn about this mistake (Note: falling for the wrong one and then making the same mistake over and over does not count)
  10. Before you turn 30, thou shouldest have had a broken condom and panicked yourself hornyless (dont know if this word even exists)
