Two huge problems with The Golden Rule are:
(1) You cannot know what someone else prefers, so if you try to do for him what you yourself like, this does not mean that said choice of actions will be at all pleasant/agreeable for him.
(2) Few folks are actually going "practice the Golden Rule back to you", so if you attempt to "do the right thing" and give someone what you would want if you were in his shoes, he will likely just view you as a foolish sucker and take shamelessly advantage of you --- he will simply "take, take, take" from you till he's totally drained you dry, then stomp off in a huff without even a single word of appreciation or acknowledgement, and feelinglessly look for his next naive soft-heart whom he can exploitingly victimize for his own selfsish personal gain.

Get the The Golden Rulemug. What a member of da "area's finest" --- especially one who never did too well in grammar-school --- finds himself faced with when trying to scribble out a summons-to-appear slip involving people/objects/locales with less-than-common names.
News flash --- Flustered MPs at da local naval-base encountered a major citation-spelling nightmare this evening when trying to write up a PECCARY who had committed da PECCADILLO of illegally entering da ARMORY and engaging in a PECKADILLO with an ARMADILLO dat it met there.

Get the citation-spelling nightmaremug. Nickname for any valuable "resource" (money, expensive food/gifts, gasoline to give her rides where she wants to go, hot and/or arduous mechanical/carpentry work, patient endurance of boring/cutesy "girl stuff", etc.) that a naive "dairy farmer" (mushy-hearted guy with raging hormones) "feeds" to his "cow" (an attractive girl whom he hopes to win over) in an effort to please/satisfy her so that hopefully she'll feel enough favorably disposed towards him to "allow him to milk her" (spread her legs for him) sometime later. May or may not be successful, depending on how “loose” the chick in question is, or how much she respects the guy’s feelings or truly appreciates/values his caring efforts to help her out.
Stud #1: Yo! Why the long face, dude? I take it you didn't "get to 4th base" with Tiffany?
Stud #2: Nope! And I fed her a whole BALE of hay, too --- worked my butt off for three hours straight in the scorchin' sun to get her car road-ready again, and burned up three of my brand-new DeWalt cut-off blades in the process --- but then afterwards she claimed to have suddenly "got religion" and wouldn't "give me any milk", even though she'd promised she would if I'd fix her car.

Get the haymug. If you wanna really fit in during festival time in Acapolka, be sure to first drink plenty of coffee in Missizippy, so dat you'll have lots of frenzied energy and stamina for da infamously-fast-paced Spanish dances.

Get the Acapolkamug. In Shakespeare's play "Henry The Fourth", Glendower boasts that he has the power to "call spirits from the vasty deep", to which Hotspur sarcastically retorts, "Why, so can I, or so can any man --- but will they come when you do call for them?" He should have added, "And if they do not, canst thou prosecute them for 'failure to appear'?"

Get the failure to appearmug. Ethan Couch's outrageously-wealthy and preposterously-doting father actually offered to buy the entire school (and therefore be in a position to dictate how it was run) just so that his "little prince" could be excessively coddled and treated in the overly-privileged way that he desired, and thus be relieved of his frequent squawllk-incidents that ocurred whenever the staff were merely trying to compel him to behave in a rational and cooperative manner towards them and his fellow classmates.

Get the squawllkmug. A blonde-haired plant-nymph who was born inside a "prairie-wheel" bush, rather than a garden-flower.
Tumblena never had to ask anyone for a ride to places she wanted to go; she would just wait till the wind was blowing in the right direction, and then hop a lift on a passing "organic bowling ball".
