    Definitive Proof That Malcolm Tucker Taught You All You Need To Know About Life

    Malcolm Tucker taught us the following life lessons. #1: Life is rated R for profanity.

    Know your strengths

    And the strengths of others.

    Don't be afraid to put your own spin on things

    Or to have your own priorities.

    Be helpful when you can

    But be honest when you can't.

    Keep yourself informed about the state of the world

    But stay attentive about your sources.

    Take time to unwind and relax

    But when choosing a leisure activity, be considerate of others.

    Keep an eye on the big picture

    But don't forget the small one.

    Remember that at the end of the day, we're all fallible

    Even if some are more fallible than others.

    Try to keep an open mind

    Because doing the right thing can be complicated.

    Don't make it easy for your opponents

    Because some things are worth fighting for.

    It's okay to be hated

    Because haters are a waste of time.

    Remember who you are

    And no matter what, come out swinging.
