One of the best things to stock up on are advent calendar christmas day stuff, even though it is mostly junk

Do not visit the chat boards of a site with a couple million of users every day

Nearly every animal can stand on two legs and talk

No one really wants to adopt a Tuskaninny

People protest harmless unprofitable virtual money semi-gambling games (Idiots...)

Never trust a person who likes asparagus

At least one person prefers a dressed-up cat to a robot shark as a pet
(Majal....I shouldnt have to finish)

I've learned:

1. Some HTML, some CSS

2. how to make some graphics

3. that there are more cheaters and liars on one site than I've met in my entire real life and you can basically trust maybe 1% of the people you talk to

4. some people are just .... dumb

5. how to protect myself more on the internet (see #3)

6. that even in a virtual "fun" escape-type environment, life is not fair

7. being frozen for whatever reason hurts - ALOT

8. Kitchen/Snow Faerie/Edna/Brain Tree quests are overpriced and overrated

9. I'm (still) completely clueless about the battledome/training, etc. :P

10. that a large site can do business with insufficient staff/resources and inconsistent/incomplete/incomprehensible legal terms of use

11. cliques are everywhere, even online

12. that I spend way too much time online

13. that PPT is a great place to make friends, get info, vent, gloat, cry, get help and support and have fun - without worrying about being scammed, warned or frozen

1. That no matter how much you lust after those srong pets (Majal again) you can never truly acheive their status in more than three hours...(neveeer try this kiddies...it hurts the eyes!!!)

2. How to read l337 and 5p34k it.

3. HTML (which I quickly forgot)

4. You can effectively convey emotions with little numbers, decimals and triangle thinginies.... ^.^

5.ALthough it is " just a game" being hacked is the saddest thing ever

6. Revenge seems so very pretty after number 5.

7.That playing the adoption game is addicting. (go and try to adopt an uber awsome pet, with all the money you have, and try to get it....she will be mine...oh yes she will be mine!)

8. How to cheat faeries

9. That neopets didn't notice when I had about 20 accounts all for the advent calender...heh... ^^;

10. That everyone hates tuskainneys.

11. Petpetpets are not worth it

12. A person is judged by the colour of their pets. (I SHAKE MY FIST AT YOU ROYAL PAINTBRUSH!)

13. All capital letters are annoying.

14.Mispelling the as 'teh' is considered ok.

15. an exception to 'teh' rule is that if your a mod, you can't mispell anything.

and last but not least,

16. Never try to dress your do up to resemble a lupe that is painted (fearie, darigan, royal, so on and so forth) It's not worth the bite and scratch marks later.

How to spell realm.

How 1/100 people are nice.

Buying items from a store and selling them for a much higher price is a way to make lots of money.

When you see an employee restocking the shelves, you have to grab it and run to the register before somebody else buys it!

Everything goes up in price, everything.

Saying "boy its getting hot in here" on the forum is a freezable offence. Heck, maybe they did it trying to cool you down.

Houses are fun to look at, but you cant really do anything in them.

Running around naked is A - OKAY, and you wonder why they even bother with a clothing store.

When neopets sets a deadline on a project, they do everything they can to get it done on time (me being sarcastic).

Paintbrushes can change the color of your skin, really!

You can become a genious just by reading books.

I can't spell genius.

All it takes is one mis-informed Aussie to get a whole section of games banned.

Green chickens in black robes can and WILL plot world destruction.

When you get depressed your skin/fur may turn a vibrant shade of blue.

You can use droppings as furniture.

Cats love to eat large dragon eggs.

5. That the computer is MY toy and the kids can play with their barbies.
6. That my kids can hit.....hard....ouch
7. That a bunch of pixels arranged in the shape of pets is highly addictive
and....
8. PPT is far more addictive!

8. things learn in neopets can be apply on real life.

1. Painting your pet with a paint brush can not only change its colour, but even mysteriously add clothing to it!

2. Pets that come in red, blue, green and yellow are actually considered plain-coloured on Neopets.

3. Instead of kissing a frog, you can actually get a Prince by throwing your pet into a lake and tossing a paint brush in with it!

1. That the entrepreneur spirit runs deep in my veins...

2. that I will never again look at the word "cougar" and think it sounds right.

3. ...how embarassing it is to be speaking to friends and accidentally say "Kougra" instead of #2

4. 99% of people out there are annoying/stupid/rude/all three.

5. The three phrases that earn you instant popularity: "Painted pet going
into the pound", "Free NP", "My name is Borovan."

6. That if I ever met a Neopets player in real life who uses an autobuyer on their account, I would probably slug them then and there.

7. Stamps and baked goods are actually more expensive than pets.

8. I will never, ever be good at the stock market, and I should quit while I'm ahead.

9. The planet is actually 1-sided, and has a moon about 100 miles in the air. (Check the explore map... it has a cm ->miles scale)

1) There are many foolish people around who would fall for the most transparent scams.

2) There are many evil people around who would connive and scheme to gain virtual satisfaction.

'nuff said.
