There's really only two of them:

  1. Don't be stupid.
  2. Don't be a dick.

They're not even unspoken, people say them all the time, but some people just don't pay attention I guess.

You're absolutely correct, but lol this is really weird given your other comments in this post.

Why didn't you clarify about edge cases, like disabilities?

Unfortunately, the current capitalist system in place for most of the world is incompatible with most people to varying degrees. This leads to people not sleeping as much as they should, which makes people stupid and behave like dicks.

I mean there are lots of reasons for people to be stupid/be a dick; the point is to rise above that shit. I get it tho, I was born in the 70s so I've been watching this world backslide into shit for nigh on 50 years now, it just keeps bombarding you with more and more shit. But if you let 'fuck it I'm tired' be an excuse then you're not even trying anymore.
