Life Pro Tips

1. If you happen to find yourself drunk driving, go as fast as you can. This will reduce the time you have the potential to hurt others.

2. Shoot yourself with smaller bullets and in non-vital places to grow an immunity to bigger bullets.

3. If you are in a heated argument with a woman, try addressing them as royalty. Classic phrases such as "calm down your highness", or "relax, princess" will flatter them and the argument will settle down.

4. Do your plugs keep bending? Try adjusting the plugs with a fork!

5. The term LGBTQ is a real mouthful. Since LGBTQ identifies with a rainbow flag, just call the people who identify as LGBTQ "colored".

6. When starting a company, only hire women. They are 23% cheaper and are just as efficient.

7. If you are caught speeding, stab yourself with any sharp object in the car. Tell the officer you are going to the hospital and he will let you off freely.

8. Is there a hoarder in your life that you want to help? Get them addicted to gambling or drugs! They will sell all their items to feed their addiction.

9. Marry your spouse or groom on a leap day, that way you save money by only getting them a gift every 4 years.

10. If you are in the car while someone else is driving the car (for best results use new or not confident driver), shout "WATCH OUT"! It will keep them on their toes for the rest of the drive.

Presidential Candidates

For the month of March (maybe longer), I will be straying away from fun facts. I have been meaning to talk about the presidential candidates for a while now, and I think it is a good way to start off No List Liam.

Hillary Clinton: This is my 2nd choice for president if Bernie doesn't win the primaries(not like I have a choice in the matter). While it would be interesting to have a female president, I don't think she is the best choice out of the 3 popular candidates. She has mimicked Bernie's opinions if something he says appears to be more favorable than what she has said previously. Her campaign is also funded mostly by companies and/or very rich people, which puts me off for some reason. She also has said she wants to limit or ban certain industry (ie: fracking), and then continue to get money from the industry. All in all, she doesn't seem like a very trustworthy person, or someone who would stick to her opinion. She also has the whole email scandal thing going around.

Bernie Sanders: This is my first choice for president, but I still don't think he is great. While he does promise helpful and great things, a lot of them are very hard to pay for: free healthcare, free education, etc. While not impossible to fund these things, it would require a substantial increase in taxes and taking away money from another department. He also doesn't support NASA and voted against funding them multiple times, which is a pretty big fault in my opinion. Despite these faults, I think he is the most honest and trustworthy candidate because the other have lied or mislead others many more times than him. His beliefs are also closer to mine than Hillary.

Donald Trump: I think a lot of Democrats have extreme views on Donald, and maybe for good reasons. The media is portraying him as the next Hitler, but I don't think he is that bad. While unprofessional, most of his views are pretty reasonable. His views on most issue are quite liberal for being a Republican, and aren't taken to the extreme. I think if he becomes more professional and well-spoken, he could make a pretty good president. We also might be able to get something done in Congress if we have a Republican president. I don't believe his experience in business will help fix America's economy, though.
My original post come off a bit too strong, it seems like it came off with a "Trump would make a good president" vibe instead of the "it wouldn't be that bad if he was elected."
