    I’m all for them displaying the Ten Commandments. That’s fine with me as long as they display the 1000 commandments from my religion too. The Church of All-Joking, All-Drunken Synod of Fools and Jesters. Here’s the first 10.

    • Thou shalt not take thyself too seriously, for everyone else is also winging it.

    • Thou shalt not attempt diets on Mondays, for misery already hath enough dominion over that day.

    • Thou shalt honor thy couch and keep it sacred, especially on days when thou hath “big plans” that mysteriously vanish.

    • Thou shalt treat grocery carts as chariots of chaos and return them to their corral… unless it raineth, then abandon them as is tradition.

    • Thou shalt not pretend to enjoy small talk about the weather, for it is the blandest of offerings.

    • Thou shalt love thy neighbor, but thou art not obligated to like their cooking, their children, or their lawn ornaments.

    • Thou shalt not judge others’ hobbies, for every soul hath something weird that bringeth them joy.

    • Remember the nap and keep it holy; thou art but a fragile creature of flesh and exhaustion.

    • Thou shalt not compare thy life to Instagram, for illusions are plentiful and filters are powerful.

    • Thou shalt do thy best, even on the days thou feelest like a sentient potato—and lo, that shall be enough.
