100 Things I Learned From The Purge
1. Whenever you have your house under lockdown during an annual massacre event, it is okay to disarm your alarm system and let a complete stranger in your house.

share129. It's so rare for huge mansions to be attacked during the Purge that the company selling the top-of-the-line security systems doesn't know how well they hold up under siege, even though it's apparently common knowledge among those participating in the Purge that all they need to get past is a couple of pick-up trucks and some chains.
130. Go ahead and have a glass or two of wine on the night that all crime is legal -- no need for your wits to be at their sharpest.
131. Make a grand moral statement about the sanctity of human life by refusing to sacrifice a stranger for your family, but render that decision completely moot by leaving him tied to a damn chair when the people hunting him are breaking in. (I know this one has been posted already several times, but it was just so friggin baffling it needed to be posted again.)
132. Offer someone a plate of cookies before you kill them. That always makes it better.
133. You've got a lot of money and instead of taking a trip out of the country during the purge, just stick around and hope your crappy security system holds out.
134. Sell security systems that you know aren't designed to fully stand up to an attack.
135. Inform those who are threatening to kill you and your family that you support their cuase becuase you sell security systems.
135. On the day of the purge, don't try to leave work early in case there is traffic or something unexpected. Try to cut it close.
136. If your crazy neighbor gives you cookies on the eve of The Purge and hints that she basically hates you, don't eat the cookies.
137. Engage your security system SECONDS before the purge begins.
138. If you create a hiding spot several feet wide in the back of your closet, your parents won't notice that the size of your closet has shrunk and that the wall appears to be held together with tape.
139. There is nothing scarier than a guy sporting a mullet and wearing a prep school jacket.
140. When you decide not to kill your murderous neighbors, sit around the kitchen table with your gun laying on the table easily within reach of said murderous neighbors and clasp your hands in front your face so that you can't get to your gun quickly.
141. The Purge only affects one day, and at 7AM everything goes back to normal. Never mind the absolute destruction (arson, looting, property damage, theft, etc) that people would be cleaning up for months nor the severe grief that people would experiencing for even longer. There are no consequences to The Purge. Society is happier. Thank you New Founding Fathers.
142. When you're life is in jeopardy, always follow the directions of a suspicious remote controlled vehicle with a mutilated baby head
143. When faced with a moral dilemma always choose the homeless black stranger instead of your family
144. When selling your neighbors a security system or doing home renovations, always consider the possibility that it might lead to them murdering your entire family

158 - If you are a top security big top who´s an expert on the purge and all, make sure you only have half a dozen small weapons and an cluncly unpractical shotgun, also, don´t teach your familly how to use them, just in case. in fact, give TWO guns to the wife, we all know thanks to mithbusters that shotting two guns at once sucks. also, don´t even think about giving the homeless guy, that ownes his life to you, at least some firepower. better yeat, don´t even release the *beep* from the chair.

As Long as You're Mine

165. Even though you wasted 85 minutes of your life on this poorly written movie, find solace in the fact that this movie is a prime candidate for a "100 things I learned" message thread on IMDB!

170. IF one of your friends is being too loud, just put a bullet in his head and your other friends will clean it up.
171. When using a flashlight and a handgun be sure you hold the flashlight so you primarily illuminate your hand holding the gun. It's much better to cast a cool looking shadow then to hold the flashlight so, you know, you actually cast light in the distance and whatever you might want to actually see there.

I thought I had just throw away an hour and a half of my life I would never get back, but instead, I learned over 100 things.
> 78b. Killing your girlfriend's Dad will make her love you more
> 78c. Killing your girlfriend's Dad will make your mother-in-law accept you
As funny as that seems, it is surprising how many real stories of kids doing exactly that. It is frightening the number who get their boyfriends or girlfriends to kill their parents and then escape into the world.
> 114. All emergency personnel are off during the 12 hour Purge...foreign countries that hate the USA do not think to come and attack us at that time I guess.
That is another movie, a remake in fact, called "Red Dawn".
> 136. If your crazy neighbor gives you cookies on the eve of The Purge and hints that she basically hates you, don't eat the cookies.
I was instantly suspicious of the cookies. I was waiting for her to walk in the house and dump them into the trash can.
205. Obviously, the government hasn't banned and confiscated all guns in 2022.
