What is your motto? (lemmy.world)

Doesn't have to be a life motto. Any motto, for any application.

Mine is: "Fear is shorter than regret."

Never trust anything with a beak. Except for crows; crows are bros.

Don't be "that guy".

Depending on the situation, whatever "that guy" is will be different, but generally I try not to be "that guy". Very rarely "that guy" is a good guy, and then the whole philosophy breaks down, but most of the time that's not the case, and I am happy trying not to be "that guy".

As my blood type always says: be positive!

I mean, I'm not B+, but I like the sentiment.

"I like my coffee bitter, like life"

"If it tastes good It is not healthy"

Just to clarify, I am not a super healthy eater. I like to use this expression when the topic comes up to point out that there is no magic and is a miserable experience to lose weight and eat better, better to come to terms with it.

Yeah. I am not a super positive person.

I don't have a motto but if anyone is looking for one "This page intentionally left blank." would be amazing

If the grass looks greener on the other side it's probably being well fertilized.
