Advice For My Little Brother Never tell your friend that his girlfriend is ugly. The best way to get a job is to not show your resume; a resume is an excuse not to hire someone. Stealing is wrong, unless you're working as a temp for a large company in which case stealing is fine. Hard work is more admirable than talent. Buy your furniture in thrift stores and save your money to buy rounds of drinks for your friends. Rich people will always tell you they're "middle class." In many small matters loyalty is more important than integrity. Be very suspicious of anyone who demands your loyalty. Only honk your horn to avoid an accident. Honesty will get you laid more often than dishonesty and the sex will be better. To avoid conflict with roommates do the dishes immediately after you eat. Your vote matters. Ambition is nothing to be ashamed of. Ambition is only bad when it makes you do bad things. I think you're perfect, but if you ever do something wrong make amends and forgive yourself, because nobody's perfect. Wash your hands when you use the washroom. Use soap. Don't be afraid to compliment someone when they do something you like, even if you don't know them. When somebody says, "It's a matter of pride" it's usually a matter of stupidity. Keeping your room clean is easier than you think. If you ever write a story about your girlfriend, mention how beautiful she is, she'll likely forgive everything else. Connect. Masturbation is a good way to relieve stress but if you masturbate too often you're spending too much time in front of the computer. Be on the side of the worker, the tenant, and the child. Big cars are not "cool". Forgiveness is a virtue but it's not a reason to maintain an unhealthy relationship. You will never beat me at cards, so stop trying. Apologies don't come with disclaimers. "I have a family to support" is not an excuse for being a bad person. There is a time to give credit and a time to take credit; they're not mutually exclusive. It's fun to talk smack but it's not worth getting somebody really angry at you. Vote for whoever you want in the primaries. Graciously accepting advice from your older brother is not a sign of weakness. *** Stephen Elliott
