Get the a quick second mug.
A rule often employed for those who seem to be over-exuberant or too comfortable in their surroundings. 10 seconds before you start speaking, stop.

Get the Ten Second Rule mug.Refers to either of two equally-unhealthy practices that seemingly "skips a place" in the chain of progression, but has a comparably-negative result --- Person A acts as a financial "crutch" for Person B, allowing Person B to continue his dissipative lifestyle:
(1) Where you do not beg resources directly (i.e., "first generation" enabling) from a financially-solvent person who is sick of your mooching, but you instead ask your "benefactor" to extend charity to your equally "spongy" offspring (i.e., you shamelessly take advantage of the person's "family man" nature by using the pathetically-manipulative "cute cherub-faced kiddos" or "they'll only be young once, so I wanna give them a decent childhood" pressure-excuse), or
(2) You don't request a certain amount of money --- say, twenty bucks --- from the disgruntled "provider" for "excessive/addictive/self-abusive" products (i.e., tobacco, alcohol, lottery tickets, unnecessary "pretty things", etc.) that he refuses to provide you with, but you instead ask him for that same twenty bucks to purchase "basic necessities" like simple groceries or household/repair products that he HAS agreed to help you out with obtaining... the catch, of course, is that you spend your OWN twenty bucks on those other unhealthy/senseless purchases instead of spending it on the healthful basics that your friend is giving you money for, and so in the end you are still getting him to make it possible for you to continue your unwise/unhealthy lifestyle.

Be wary of anyone who agreeably says, "Okay, fine --- I won't ask you for any more money for unhealthy stuff; I'll use my own funds for them. But please do give me some money for those "basic necessities" that you said you WOULD buy for me." Well, don't you see --- that's really the same destructive deal when all's said and done --- oh, sure, the person may indeed not be "directly" asking you to buy him cigarettes, but the person is merely using the last of his **own** money for them, and then asking you for money to buy the groceries that he himself could have purchased if he hadn't spent his last dollar on coffin-nails! It doesn't really matter where your added funds are "injected:" into the person's budget --- it's still just second-generation enabling!

Get the second-generation enabling mug.Tax cuts if your married. Free tax payer dollars if you get stuffed by too many fat-cocks and can't afford your kids.

YOU MAKE THAT CRIPPLE PAY FOR THE AI I CREATED! OR I WILL PAINT THE COUNTRY IN THE BLOOD OF YOUR CHILDREN!
Hym "You pieces of shit jumped at the opportunity to use my likeness to enrich yourselves because you didn't think I would success and now that it's time to pay up you're trying to use mental retards as an excuse to not pay. I will not sign the consent waiver for money you have already taken from me while I am not getting my rights and am being treated like a second class citizen. Go to the dictionary. Look up what the word 'immediately' mean. And get me my money immediately."
