Part One: Warnings
 
W

W
It would seem pretty obvious, wouldn't it?  Yet you'd be surprised how many people forget to watch out for those nasty usurpers.  Don't be one of them.
W

W

This one catches many people by surprise.  Not as big a surprise, however, as you experience if you turn your back on a shadow and it suddenly transforms into a gigantic tentacled monster.
W

W

Don't go around thinking you're not going to die just because you haven't heard some booming, sepulchral voice calling your name.  Death could come for you looking and sounding just like Mom.  Happens all the time.
W

W
Don't get bored.  Even more importantly, don't let the people around you get bored, especially if they're bigger than you.

W
Don't go trying to arm wrestle with Violence and Passion.  They'll take your arm off, man!
W

W
If you should find yourself fighting a fearsome Hoop Demon, don't try to kill it by ripping its heart out.  Won't work.

 
 
 
 
 
 

Part Two: General Information
 
W

W
You think your social calendar has plenty of openings now?  See how many people invite you over after you're gone.
W

W
'Nuff said.
W

W

You thought being dead was lonely?
W

W
...and a pretty shoddy toy at that.
W

W
They just don't.  If you know someone who acts like that, they're either not human, or they're communists!
W

W
Always a good idea, unless you're on a ship full of newlyweds.
W

W
You can only rent it...or is that beer?
W

W
What do you mean, 'Who?'   You know who we're talking about...it's, you know, her.
W

W
Oh yeah, did we mention that there's a sale of couches at Furniture World?
W

W
This holds true unless the trembling hand is that of an axe-wielding maniac, in which case you can forget about the "tangled love" part.
W

W
...probably because of all that too-frequent intimacy.
