Advice from Old PeopleSometimes, just sometimes, old people say something worth listening to. Ok, so it's like picking the needle out of a whole haystack of mis-remembered war stories, but those gems should be celebrated.
Tell us something worthwhile an old-type person has told you.
Note, we're leaving the definition of old up to you, you smooth-skinned youngsters.

I agree with thisFor example, if you kill someone, and know you're going to get caught, that's 20 years, and "shower-time fun".
If you kill someone, realise it's 20 years, and then mutilate the corpse, eat bits of it, chop it about, make a hat from the buttocks, and paint yourself in it's blood, then you'll get less time, in a cushy secure hospital, and no bathtime extras.
