certificate of your homelessness.
I know a kindly loving Grampa who lives in a rusty old van.
He spends his meagre pension on children's violins and has helped
many kiddie fiddlers.
Would you send him some of your coupons ?

These are all good. #10 is especially poignant to me at the moment.

If I have some extra stamps for Boston, sure, why not?

Thank you Seitse.
Coupons for free or discounted candy would be
especially appreciated.

“If you disagree with something, it's easier to say 'you suck' than to figure out and explain exactly what you disagree with. You're also safe that way from refutation. In this respect trolling is a lot like graffiti. Graffiti happens at the intersection of ambition and incompetence: people want to make their mark on the world, but have no other way to do it than literally making a mark on the world.” ―Paul Graham

One of Grampy Bobby's "lessons for a happy life" presumably is to mention "trolls" or "trolling" and copy paste the same quotes over and over again on a message board. 😉

To me this is important. This 'principle' has had a decisive effect on my life since my early 20s.

I can't agree on this one. There are plenty of excellent TV programmes that are well worth watching and which contribute to a happy life. Having the facility to watch them exactly when you want to, however, rather than being beholden to a broadcast schedule, is a massive quality of life improvement.
