"Hell, I'll kill a man in a fair fight... or if I think he's gonna start a fair fight, or if he bothers me, or if there's a woman, or if I'm gettin' paid - mostly only when I'm gettin' paid." - Jayne, Firefly

"I am like a being thrown from another planet on this dark terrestrial ball, an alien, a pilgrim among its possessors." - Thomas Carlyle

  • Freud
  • Gaggling together solely with people one's own age
  • Giving change to the homeless
  • Hedonism
  • Horoscopes
  • Hospitals
  • someone's Hypocrisy pointed out as a means of undermining that person's rational argument (who traverses life from shore to shore without, at times, falling ill? Should it be argued that illness is good simply because it's natural and perhaps inevitable? There. That's enough of that argument, then.)
  • Iconoclasts
  • Introspection
  • John Locke

  • Not expressing your relevant concerns, so to avoid being offensive
  • Organized sports
  • Other people's babies
  • Partisan thought
  • Playing by the rules when the rules are erroneous
  • Polyamory (not 'immoral', just not as 'liberated' and innovative as it thinks it is)
  • Porn (not to be confused with erotica)
  • Psychologists
  • Pulling yourself up by your bootstraps
  • Rap

  • Shoes
  • So-called reality
  • Socially endorsed escapism (TV, movies)
  • Sticking to your opinion
  • Sympathetic understanding for morons
  • Television
  • Trite sentimentality
  • Trust-fund suburbanites idolizing and emulating the impoverished and ghetto, feigning irony when inspected too closely by elitist peers, and filled with secret, misplaced Baudelairesque envy, deliberately perpetuating unfortunate societal conditions in their misbegotten oblivion - dropping coins in the coffers of misogynist rap performers and degrading the quality of street fashion with shoddy, conventional imitations, and sloppily, ironically adopting clever but sharp-edged colloquialisms with no appreciation of their sincerity and the ruthless severity of environment that inspired them.
  • Trusting the news more than your eyes.
  • Trusting your heart without using your brain.
  • Trying to lose your virginity (with no motivating factor but social status)
  • Zooey Deschanel

P.S.

  • Sex & Drugs ftw. These are nuances.
