They're all from different time periods.------------------------------------------------------------
New Rule: You can't claim to be a "pimp" when you girlfriend looks like a $2 whore.
New Rule: Pretending to be better then everyone else you hang out with is lame.
New Rule: Women cannot complain about men anymore till they start getting better taste in them.
New Rule: ebonics isn't a language, english is.
New Rule: Use spell check. I don't know what "Aight" means nor do I give a flying ****.
New Rule: Stop leaving messages on my voicemail saying, "It's me." I already have a "me" in my life - me! And frankly, if we were that close, I'd have given you the number to the phone that I answer.
New Rule: Cut the whitey ebonics. We all know it's hilarious when white people, especially old ladies, talk "street" on TV. Attention all real rappers: you have guns for a reason. Use them.
New Rule: Enough with gay-sploitation TV. "Queer Eye For the Straight Guy"? Hey, if I want a bunch of gay men in queen outfits telling me how to live my life, I'll go back to Mass.
New Rule: No more cell phones in movie theaters. Please, you're not a cardiologist on call. You're a tool whose babysitter wants to know where the ketchup is. And then you tell her in the middle of the movie. Sometimes it's so loud in the theater I can barely hear what the Black people are yelling at the screen. There is a simple solution. Put your cell phone on vibrate... and then up your ***.
New Rule: Stop whining about gas prices. It's good that it costs a lot. And not just because the sales tax will help pay for our twice-a-year governor elections. It's also good if it makes you think of walking the three blocks from your house to Del Taco instead of taking the Land Cruiser. Gasoline costs a lot because we have to find it, bribe or kill the people who live on top of it, extract it, refine it, ship it and pump it. You'll pay $2.00 a gallon and you'll like it, because you know what the alternative is: riding on the bus with poor people.
New Rule: Stop mourning the Volkswagen Bug. Ever since the last one rolled off the assembly line a month ago, there's been nonstop nostalgia for what always was a cramped, uncomfortable, noisy little ****can! To be missed only by brain-dead hippies and Hitler's relatives who still get a royalty. Mourning the Bug is like getting wistful about dentistry before novocaine or dating before penicillin. And if you really miss it so bad, just go down to Venice Beach. You can get one for forty bucks!
New Rule: Call things what they are. If your morning coffee contains crushed ice, whipped cream and caramel, it's a milkshake! Same as if you cook your cocaine on a spoon and smoke it. You're not freebasing. You're a crackhead. And if you go down on your husband after he gives you a new fur coat, you're not celebrating your anniversary, you're a--oh, never mind.
New Rule: Stop pretending that viruses on the Internet are interrupting anything important. Like all successful innovations, the Internet got big by exploiting an unmet need in the marketplace: a more efficient way to transmit both junk mail and pictures of busty teenagers having unprotected anal sex.
"Okay", said corporate America, "but how about also including a way for us to spy on our employees and make them have to work nights and weekends at home for more pay?" And voila, email was born!
New Rule: Three and a half hours is too long for a movie about magical midgets. "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" is so long you have to take a bathroom break before you get through the title. The "Rings" trilogy runs almost nine hours. You could marry Britney Spears twice. If I wanted to spend that kind of time seeing dragons, I'll take drugs.
New Rule: George Bush isn't Hitler. In the contest sponsored by MoveOn.org, two entries compared Bush to Hitler, ignoring the first rule for being taken seriously by grown-ups, which is don't call everyone you don't like, Hitler. Bush is not Hitler. For one thing, Hitler was a decorated frontline combat veteran.
New Rule: The end of "Friends" is not a national tragedy. You know, it used to be a sitcom just went off the air. One week, Chandler was complaining to Phoebe that he couldn't get it up; the next week, he wasn't, and nobody cared. Each of the characters on "Friends" has ****ed every other character on "Friends" in every combination possible, including the monkey. Let it go!
New Rule: Give arrested celebrities a chance to comb. Not allowing icons to wash up gives the impression that they're, well, washed up. And we'd hate for that to happen.
New Rule: Tipping is for waiters, bathroom attendants and lap dancers only. What is it with Starbucks, delis, even dry cleaners all having little jars on the counter? Hmm, what's 15% of "blow me"? Waiters. Waiters get tips because they "wait" on you. If your job involves standing behind a counter cutting bagels in half, you're not waiting on me; I'm waiting on you. I think that's bi-partisan. We can all relate to that.
New Rule: I don't care how big or flat it is, it's still just a TV. Congratulations! You just paid $10,000 to watch "Hogan's Heroes."
New Rule: A hamburger is not the same thing as a car. The Bush Administration wants to reclassify fast-food jobs as manufacturing jobs. Talk about parsing the language. Bill Clinton may have finessed the definition of sex, but he never claimed his pen15 was actually a glass of lemonade. A Quarter Pounder may spend a week in your colon, but that doesn't make it a "durable good."
New Rule: Homosexuals must be ripped. As news reports cover gay couples lining up in San Francisco to get married, America has been forced to confront a real eye-opener: a gay person can be just as big a slob as a straight one. The video is shocking. There were gay couples with beer guts and nine-day-old stubble, wearing hockey jerseys. And I don't just mean the lesbians!
New Rule: Keep the Statue of Liberty closed. Since 9/11, the Statue has been off limits for security reasons, and some people are outraged. Why? It's a sacred symbol of our principles, not a Stair Master. Everything doesn't have to be interactive. People go to church, they don't take turns up on the cross. You're not allowed to fill the Liberty Bell with nachos or wear it as a hat. You want to lose yourself inside an American icon? **** Shelley Winters.
New Rule: The Sports Illustrated "Swimsuit Edition" is whacking material for guys too chicken to buy real p0rn. Apparently between the end of the football season and the beginning of the baseball season is the masturbating season. Which is fine. But to put on a national display of mourning and outrage over one exposed nipple at a sporting event, and the next week to show nothing but tits and *** in our premier sports magazine seems a tad hypocritical.
New Rule: Stop calling every time two bad things happen at the same time a "Perfect Storm." Sometimes it's just some crap happening at the same time as some other crap. Let's go back to what we used to call it before the movie about George Clooney and his epic struggle to kill more tuna: "**** happens."
New Rule: I don't care that your phone takes pictures. It's a phone, not a Swiss Army knife. Great, now the annoying camera buff and the annoying cell phone prick can merge as one guy. Hey, if you could figure out how to make that camera phone play country western music real loud, we could call it a "Perfect Storm of ***holes."
New Rule: Yes, I have seen the new twenties. You don't have to show me yours.
NEW RULE: Let the guy in the Mickey suit run Disney. Look, any guy who is willing to put on one of those heavy, stifling costumes and let kids yank on his leg for eight hours a day must really love the company. Give him a raise for nine bucks an hour, let him pick the movies, let him program ABC. He can't do worse than "Hope and Faith."
NEW RULE: Drugs are a symptom, not the problem itself. There's a reason crystal meth is ravaging small-town USA: there's nothing else to do. Sorry, John Mellencamp, but the farms are all gone, the Tastee Freeze is closed and the little pink house burned down in a meth lab explosion. The nearest job is 40 miles away at the Wal-Mart, and they lock you in at night. If you want the kids to stay off the crank, you need to put them on something else: a bus out of town!
New Rule: Politics is about compromises, really stupid compromises. That's how we got such laws as: blacks are three-fifths of a person; slaves are property unless they make it to Ohio; interning the Japanese but not the Germans; slaughtering the Indians but letting the ones who survive run the Keno parlors.
p0rn, but not hardcore p0rn. Booze, and then no booze, and then booze again. But no pot. Except medical marijuana, which is legal to possess, but illegal to obtain! And my favorite: you can't have stem cells except the ones we already have.
New Rule: Don't watch TV when you drive.a while ago, a man was on trial for a fatal crash that happened when he was watching and driving - "Road Trip." A moving automobile isn't a theater. It's a place for eating, drinking, talking on the phone, doing your hair, checking your makeup and getting blown.
New Rule: You can't call your show "Wife Swap" unless the other guy really gets to bang your wife. I didn't sign up for an hour of watching mom do some other family's laundry.
New Rule: Stop running TV ads I don't understand. You've seen this one for IBM? I don't know if it's for weapons of mass destruction or a stool softener. Then there's the one with clouds moving in fast motion and some Buddhist monks on a cell phone, and then James Earl Jones comes on and says, "We're the world leader in virtual network upstream data retrieval." What? Hey, **** you! You know what? I watch TV to see bimbos marry strangers for money. If I want to be confused, I'll take mushrooms.
New Rule: You can't write your own obituary. There's a hot new trend now: writing your own death notice before you die. It's a nice new way of saying, "I may be dead, but I can still monopolize the conversation." Hey, you're dead. Worms are eating you. Let someone else talk.
New Rule: You can't be famous for nothing! Paris Hilton can't be in the papers anymore unless she kills someone, marries J-Lo or O.D.'s. Also, her head is too small and she has only one facial expression. I know that's not a rule but somebody had to say it.
New Rule: No, we don't need a Hummer cologne. I'm not kidding. Hummer is now also a men's fragrance. They say the scent is a masculine combination of leather, sandalwood and a bald man's tiny c***. By the way, it's also a great cologne for gay guys. You put it on and before you know it, you're rolling over.
New Rule: Stop building "****-you-mobiles." A company called International is offering a pickup truck that is twice as heavy as the Hummer and so bad for the environment you can actually watch the sky falling in your rearview mirror. They call it the "image enhancer" for "folks who just want more." In other words, "***holes." But at a cost of a hundred grand, wouldn't it just be cheaper to go ahead and get the pen15 enlargement surgery?
[Re: Scott Peterson trial] Okay, first she was mad that he was married, then she was mad when he killed his wife. New Rule: There's just no pleasing some people.
New Rule: Britney Spears has to perform with Justin Timberlake at next year's [2005] Super Bowl. I don't care what the FCC fine ends up costing. I'll pay it.
New Rule: Stop believing the hype in all those movies where the computer hacker is really the cool one. So you brought Microsoft to its knees. I'm guessing still no luck getting a girl in that position
...And tonights New Rule: It's time to go to bed when your head keeps falling on the keyboard. The only person's head I want bobbing that much is Paris Hiltons with a paperbag over her head.
