Bad Advice for Good People

Archive for 'How To'

I get asked a lot about what makes someone “Deviant.”

It’s actually a pretty good question and something that I really hadn’t much considered until I got asked this question. I took the time to soul search and really investigate what about me made me so deviant. The entirety of my existence was taken into consideration. As I dove deeper and deeper into my psyche, I began to…

Wait. No. No, that’s not it at all. I realized that, honestly, being deviant comes down to five (that would be 5) little points:

  1. You’ve gone beyond “looking out for number one.” In fact, you conisder yourself so damned important that you wonder why people aren’t grovelling at your feet.
  2. You actually though Denis Leary’s “Asshole” song was about you.
  3. You were disappointed when it wasn’t.
  4. You actually know the difference between “The Rocker,” “The Shocker,” and “The Showstopper.”
  5. You read this site.

Ok. So maybe this list isn’t fully comprehensive. To be honest, there’s lots of things that make one deviant. However, the lines aren’t always 100% clear, but who cares. You’re deviant, right? Absolutely. So what do YOU feel makes YOU a Deviant? Leave something in the comments!

So there you are, minding your own business and suddenly the lights go off behind you. Yup, you’re being pulled over. Totally blows ass, but if you’re gonna drive, it’s gonna happen at some point. And for those of you who say you’ve never gotten a ticket, shut up. You probably didn’t get a ticket because you or your lawyer bulshitted their way out of one. Even if you haven’t gotten a ticket, you’ve been pulled over at least once.

Points on your license, rising insurance rates, and a whole host of other crap can take a simple traffic ticket into a hellish experience… unless you know how to fight it and win. Granted, it takes some effort, but it might be worth it. Here at DeviantAdvice, we’re always working to make your life better. So to wit, we give you our guide on how to fight a traffic ticket, althouth we aren’t guaranteeing a win (thanks for making the lawyers happy -ed)

In today’s “modern” business climate, lots of companies are wanting to save valuable money by allowing select employees to work from home, thus starting to cut down on traditional office expenses.

So when you’re finally called up to the big leagues and offered a chance to work from home, you’ve got to make the most of this situation and we here at DeviantAdvice have you covered. To wit, we present to you a guide on how to “work” from home.
