“Rules for me but not for thee” is a phrase you'll see bandied about whenever there is an unjust application of rules by undeserving leaders in instances where they are making themself an exception to their own rules without any explanation being given.

Let's be real for a second, the best type of neighbors are those who you barely even notice are there. There is no need for pleasantries or friendships, all we need is peace and quiet, and the neighborhood will become a much better place.

Who doesn't wish they had the audacity to expect expensive clothes for free just a little bit?

It's an easy thing to overlook: you think to yourself, “Oh, I'll back it up later.” But the first time you accidentally lose four days of work on your video edit, or find yourself staring at a blank Word document that used to be 15 pages long, you realize just how important it is to have redundancies.

Imagine signing onto a part-time job only to learn that the people running the store are incompetent high school graduates. It's not that these 18-year-olds are not capable of running a business one day, but as of now, the total lack of professionalism is on full display.
