Never, ever, EVER stick your finger in a spinning disc rotor to see what happens.

Never, ever, ever, EVER, EVER have a brick wall punching contest. Two broken fingers. I'm typing at like 4wpm.
 
Water cool you Mac with a garden hose.

Attempt to speed up your Mac by tying it to the back of a speeding train.

Use your MBP as a scooba-jet even if MacRumors says it is water proof - The fans just aren't THAT strong. :D

Spray Raid or Black Flag on your Mac when someone informs you that there are bugs in your system.



But all of these things are fine if you're on a PeeCee!
 
I must respectfully disagree. :D

Typed from his custom PC that he built for $300 that has not given him a single problem.
 
Never respond to an email from a woman responding to your Craigslist ad who you were not interested in from the start. It only makes you seem like a jerk after talking to her a bit and then having to tell her that the chemistry is not there.
 
I have one - never drink a bottle of cocacola without making sure the thing inside is actually cocacola. I drank oil (not motor).

Never play World of Warcraft.

Don't flame me, please, it's pointless and will only wasteland the thread.

+2. Agreed. Quit that game and I'm so much happier.

Another thing you should never, ever do: make a Windows PC your main computer.
 
I also did some you should do:

Never be afraid to ask for help.

Think of your body as an instrument, as opposed to an ornament.

Never be afraid to change your mind.

Trust your intuition.

Take as many different classes as possible in high school and college. I found my passion somewhere unexpected.

And: embrace change.
 
Welll - there was a reddit post on it recently, but trying to register your penis with your laptop's fingerprint reader sounds like one of those intriguingly 'do not do' things to me. You lose either way if you succeed or not, it seems...
 
When you go to another country for the first time, never assume that coins are just pocket change. My first day in the UK, I was at a restaurant and threw some spare coins I got as change throughout the day in the tip jar, thinking it might've amounted to a pound or two. I later realized that I left something like an £8 tip on a meal that cost less than that because they have £1 and £2 coins, something we don't have in the US (well, we have $1 coins, but they're not really in active circulation)

Here in Japan, they have coins smaller than American quarters that are equal to roughly $1. And they have ¥500 coins equally to roughly $5 American.
