Rule 52 - Did you know that March 10th is the International Day of Awesomeness?  Sure it may not get the attention that President’s Day, Memorial Day, or New Years Day gets…but that doesn’t mean it is any less important.  So what is Int’l Day of Awesomeness? 

According to DayofAwesomeness.com, it is a celebration of awesomeness. People are awesome every day, frequently don’t realize it, and their feats of awesomeness are rarely recognized. We aim to fix that, with a special day to both perform and celebrate feats of awesomeness!

Most of you are walking the path of the awesome already so you may ask yourself, “What else can I do to be more awesome to celebrate this day”?  The answer is simple: take your awesome to the next level.  Maybe you go out of your way to help someone out, pick up a lunch tab for your co-workers, join the Rules of Awesomeness FB fan page and share the link with all your friends (that plug…was totally awesome), or give a friend or relative a phone call today that you havent talked to in a while.  Be creative. 

Living the life of awesome means you have to continually strive to reach new levels of awesomery (creating new words is friggin awesome too).  Leave a comment about what you did today to take awesome to new levels.  Just remember, being awesome doesn’t start and stop on March 10th.  You need to keep on keeping on every day of the year.  Stay awesome my friends.

This fox is showing how awesome he is by helping out this duck.

Rule 41 - Do not talk on a cell phone while in a public bathroom.  Seriously.  No one wants to listen to your nonsense and I can assure you no one on the phone would want to know where you are or what is in your hand either.  Almost daily at the office there is someone standing at a urinal or dropping a deuce chatting away on the phone.  Take what is probably a much needed personal moment to yourself free from the phone and just relax and do what you gots to do.  Besides, you don’t want to run the risk of dropping that iPhone where it doesn’t belong anyway.

Rule 37 - At least once in your life go to the movie theater and pay for one movie…watch it…then sneak into a second film for free.  This takes some minor pre-planning if you want to see the entire second film as you have to time the double feature pairing in order to not miss any or have to wait around for too long for it to start.  Why do this?  For some people this is really operating outside their comfort zone.  Regardless of the number of times you have done it, the heart starts to pick up a few beats when the thrill kicks in.  It’s a great way to “live on the edge” and not hurt anyone.

Helpful tips:  purchase a large fountain drink then get it refilled for the second film.  This will give the illusion that you just purchased it as you casually stroll into your next movie.   Also, generally new releases show at larger theaters every half hour or so for the first week or two.  Use one of these movies as your second film as it will help lining up the times a little bit easier. 

double your feature...double your fun

Rule 34 - If you are ever offered to join a threesome…accept.  The only exception would be if they are skanky…wait…well maybe…ok…yes that one counts too.  Do it.  No exceptions.

Should two heterosexual males be involved as 66.6% of the participants there are a couple subsequent rules to follow:

• Rule 34.1 - Avoid prolonged eye contact at the other male’s genitalia.  You will have to engage some sort of visual engagement, but this should be reserved strictly for navigational and planning purposes only.

• Rule 34.2 - Absolutely, without exception, no touching of other’s junk. 

this....is awesome

Rule 30 - Turning 30 sucks.  The only people that say it doesn’t…already turned it and are making themselves feel better about it.  Don’t listen to them.  Friends don’t let friends turn 30 sober.  Get drunk.  Really drunk.  Then puke on someone you don’t know.  It’s funnier that way…for everyone else.   Why do you care?  Your life is over now anyway.  Loser.

Just whatever happens...make sure your friend doesn't end up face first on top of a urinal cake. Srsly...do not eat the pink round thing.

Rule 28 - If someone offers to buy you a drink…let them…then thank them.  Forgetting the latter is shitty behavior to the highest of shitivity.
