The Standing Policies

The Bear Poking Policy

  • Policy 1: Do not poke the bear
  • Policy 2: It does not matter if the bear started it. Do not poke a bear, the bear or any other bear
  • Policy 3: You cannot unpoke a bear
  • Policy 4: No rescue shall be forthcoming for an incident involving a bear you have previously poked, currently poking, or are advancing upon with intentions to poke.
  • Policy 5: You poked it, you earned it.

The Consideration of Alternatives Policy

  • “Thought it through, did it anyway” is policy
  • Just because I thought it out in detail doesn’t mean it’s not a very terrible idea.
  • Do I look like I think things through?
