Taking a job in car sales. I hated it after three weeks, but I sure did learn a lot about dealing with people.

I threw away the the rare piece for the $20,000 set in that Batman Taco Bell game a few years ago. I didn't eat at TB much so I didn't think I would get any more pieces, I actually started playing the game a week later and felt quite ill once I realized that i had at least 3 of the other two pieces in the set.

Now I keep all of my game pieces.

Parents: Go to school. Get good grades. Get a good job working for someone

I learned that the underlined portion is pure BS.

Wow, that's worse than working for Genreal Dynamics. That sucks.

Mistake: Wasting my first year of university (party party party)

I didn't get to go back to school with all of my first-year buddies, and I worked in a factory for 16 months (9 months of straight midnight shifts) on some very tough jobs. I learned you can't f*ck around when you get an opportunity.

Went back to another school closer to home, bought a computer and played a crapload of Duke Nukem 3D but stayed out of trouble, and got my B.A. :)

Deciding to take a year off from college after my freshman year. Quickly realized that I should go back to college. So instead of one year I only took a quarter off. Went back and missed some sequential classes, which means I have to make up 2 quarters instead of 1.

chopping off someone's head and not even thinking twice about it. ----- Because now that I think about it a little more, I realize I probably should have thought twice before chopping of his head simply because it would be an honorable and respectful thing to do before I chopped off his head and didn't think twice about it.
