ALL THE THINGS I LEARNED FROM LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD

1. Computer nerds sometimes look like hot emo rockers.


2. If you are an evil villain, your girlfriend will willingly go into battle for you, so you can stay safely in your armored truck.


3. Boyfriends will still want to call you after your cop Dad pulls them out of a car and threatens their life.

7. If a large pane of glass is visible, someone will be thrown through it before long.


8. Computers never display a cursor on screen, but will always say: "Enter Password Now".


9. Even when driving down a perfectly straight road, it is necessary to turn the steering wheel vigorously from left to right every few moments. Tires will squeal on any surface, at any speed.


10. All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red readouts so you know exactly when they're going to go off.

14. Gloating over your enemies' predicament before killing them, only gives them time to kill you instead.


15. The ventilation system of any building is the perfect hiding place. No one will ever think of looking for you in there and you can travel to any other part of the building you want without difficulty.


16. Never design your moving main Control Room so that every workstation is facing away from the door.


17. If I continue to read conspiracy theory someday it will all come true.


18. When a person is knocked unconscious by a blow to the head, they will never suffer a concussion or brain damage.
