After a long day of pottering about the hardware, pet store, supermarket etc I will remember all the things I was supposed to do - but forgot - which can easily be rectified by a well prepared 'To Do' list organised over breakfast.
As is often the case however, I will return home after a long day
of funny looks, footpath pursuits, and slapped cheeks to remember all the things that I shouldn't have done. This can be remedied by preparing a 'Not To Do' list in anticipation of where you may be going and the situations that may be avoided in careful preparation of incorrect behaviour.
As you enter the pet store for example, simply browse over your list and adhere to them as strictly as you can -'Do Not blow bubbles in the aquarium, Do Not ask staff for a menu, Do Not buy another cat, etc'
This may help.

P.S. I think these are usually called New Year's Resolutions. |

*psst* Try making this a electronic deviece to remind you not to do things. Then maybe it will pass. Or maybe not... |
|

A "To Don't" list? Sure. Seems simple enough: create your "To Do" list and XOR it with the Universal Standard List of All Possible Things. |
|
|
I'd like to see that list [half]. Do you have a copy? |
|
|
I checked it out and in an ironic twist, it turns out that giving you a copy isn't one of the items on the list. Go figure. |
|
|
Dear ben, I'd like your list of all possible things to do. |
|
|
18445. Post ideas like VJ? |

Do not tempt compulsives to commence a list on the HB.
(NB, not the start of a list...or a not list...) |

If I have a 'to do' list in one hand, and a 'not to do' list in the other hand, then what is the name of the list that contains the items that are in neither? |
|
|
Shouldn't do but will do? |

Don't consult the-that list with this list-list, or sumtin like that list against this list-list by swopping them list-lists into do-do not, refer that list against this lists-list, now which list-lists to refer to, refer to that do list-lists of lists or this list of lists listing those do lists that don't contain the don't lists of list-list, so refer to the lists list-list of lists before the listing lists list-list, once I have reffered to the do list of list-lists I must compare to the don't list of list-lists, list of do-don't lists the lists which refer to the lists-list of lists that list the do lists, likewise the don't-do lists the lists- lists- list that refer to the lists list master list ... |

....rips up lists and makes an unnesessary purchase. |

{neelandan} - first rule of halfbakery: we do not talk about vagina jam |

Yeah. I've noticed that we are not talking about that idea here. |

Do not post a link to goatse on this idea. |
