- Don't spit in the ocean
- Don't pee in the wind (or the pool)
- Don't take any wooden nickels
- You can't (edited) do Number One and Number Two at the same time
- Don't sneeze with your eyes open
- If you fall out of the tree and break your legs, don't come running to me
- Princess Bride is the dumbest movie

- Stop your crying or I'll give you something to cry about
- This is gonna hurt me more than... no, it won't.
