Visa’s rules for life [draft] 1. recognise when u get ur ass kicked, & accept it with grace 2. if u *have* to kick someone’s ass, be swift, don’t be a dick about it 3. if u can save an innocent ass from being kicked, do so 4. remember, life kicks everybody’s ass in the end https://t.co/Um8cpgnREB

@OmnivoreBlog @djmicrobeads @alt_visa I actually very consistently and naively make sincere efforts to befriend everyone who kicks my ass I got married this way

@ckhonson My secret, Captain, is that for me, my ass is already kicked and when the ass-kicking comes, I say, "Of course." https://t.co/RMLQYSexHg

Variation of rule 5: make a gesture of kindness after any ass-kicking, whether you’re giving or receiving it. If the other person reciprocates, congrats, you now quite possibly have a True Friend

The moments before, during and after an ass-kicking are extremely critical in any relationship. They take up like 5% of your time but account for 90% of what defines a relationship

A person who is kind when handing out a well-deserved ass-kicking has a noble heart

@visakanv Man it's a good thing I came out in favour of restating other people's thoughts earlier. https://t.co/bXfde2vDui

I've talked before about the social norms that prevent being good at things, but in this post I explore some norms that can *promote* being good at things. (Much less spicy than I promised, sorry) https://t.co/Waik8KrrV8
