Things I Learned Traveling With The Doctor...

1. Sometimes a police box is just a police box, and sometimes it leads to adventures beyond the compare.
2. “Stranger Danger” doesn’t mean anything - neither does “Stay Put.”
3. It is not good to run out of the TARDIS shouting “no one expects the Spanish Inquisition.”
4. Don’t let Tegan drive.
5. Adric plus The Master = a very bad combination
6. Always bring a banana to a party.
7. Just because there is a closet full of clothes does not mean they must all be worn, it especially does not mean they must all be worn at once.
8. A mallet does make a good weapon.
9. Everytime you think Davros is dead, think again. (Same for the Daleks, the Cybermen, the Autons…)
10. Time is relative, and it tastes like jambalaya.
11. You can make fun of G.I. Joe, but never make fun of G.I. Jenny.
12. When in doubt, blame the Reverend.
13. Just because something is timelocked doesn’t mean it is.
14. It’s not a good idea to stand outside the TARDIS and knock four times.
15. Don’t always believe what you see, it’s probably some alien mind in a glass case trying to corrupt you.
16. Stay away from Asian fortune tellers.
17. Cell phones can work in space, especially with a little sonic help.
18. Absorbing the time vortex into yourself is not always a good idea.
19. Don’t try fighting the 51st Century pheremones, you won’t win.
20. Make peace, plant banana groves.
21. It is perfectly normal to wave at fat, especially if it waves back at you.
22. Ruffles are not always a good fashion statement. There’s a time and place for ruffles.
23. Always search your fireplace carefully, there just might be a Timelord at the other end.
24. Metal dogs are man’s best friend.
25. Bessie is a good name for a car.
26. Even Brigadiers look good in kilts!
27. Bubble wrap is always an option in your wardrobe.
28. When building a hospital, always include a little gift shop.
29. When in the library, stay in the light, otherwise it can turn into a very scary place.
30. Realize The Doctor will always do what he intends to do, no matter what you say… unless you say “pretty please.”
31. Don’t be offended when you find another woman’s clothes in the TARDIS. You weren’t the first and you won’t be the last.
32. The Key To Time is not that easy to find, and its not worth it anyway.
33. If someone says they’re your friend and says their name is The Master, don’t walk, JUST RUN!
34. Everything can always be a little more sonic.
35. You can have eggs and bacon in the same protein square.
36. Queen Victoria is seldom amused.
37. Beware of monks bearing werewolves.
38. There can be at least one good version of Torchwood.
39. Elections are important, make sure you vote.
40. Bad Wolf
41. Even the TARDIS flirts with Jack.
42. What’s a year anyways?
43. Jack Harkness of the neither here nor there.
44. It takes six people to properly drive the TARDIS.
45. Ood can be very ood, but their song is beautiful!
46. Never blink. Just don’t do it.
47. Always carry fruit in your pockets. Always.
48. You’re not really one of the team until you have a superphone.
49. Invest in the best rubber sole running shoes money can buy.
50. Tin dogs don’t poop. They do shoot disintegration lazers however.
51. Never judge a man by his jimjams.
52. It is perfectly normal to be bored and hang shelves.
53. Teddy Bear buttons go with everything.
54. Fishing is the best pastime.
55. It really IS bigger on the inside.
56. Always travel with a posse.
57. You don’t have to learn the language… just have the best translator in the universe.
58. Two hearts are better than one.
59. Sometimes you need someone to stop you.
60. When on trial for murder, a Doctor makes a great attorney.
61. The weird noise from the vent above your head is rarely just the air conditioning.
62. If you find yourself locked in a room and unable to breathe, “shut up and save your breath.”
63. Never say anything is impossible, even planets.
64. You can always learn a trick or two from Tibetan monks.
65. If you find yourself suddenly waking up on the floor, don’t even bother asking why.
66. Be prepared to do a lot of running.
67. Fables sometimes have a basis in fact, take Nessie for instance.
68. When you have more than one Doctor in the same room or TARDIS, it’s generally not a fun reunion, and most times some universe - or Belgium - is about to implode.
69. A test lick is literally for testing.
70. Speaking in a foreign language on the TARDIS will always come out Welsh.
71. When someone wearing a gas mask asks if you are their mummy, for God’s sake RUN.
72. Never underestimate the power of a fan club.
73. Ghosts are never ghosts. Neither are gassy cabinet members.
74. Never get an implant in the future unless you want to spend the rest of your life answering your family’s questions.
75. The TARDIS does not run on gas - nor are there intergalactic gas stations.
76. When you’re a Timelord, lying about your age is A-OK.
77. Never forget to hug your friends. A LOT.
78. If you want to know what’s really going on, work in the kitchen.
79. The Doctor can dance. Take that Jack.
80. The phrase “Oh no!! I have to warn myself,” is not impossible.
81. When in doubt, grin like a madman. It usually helps. That, or introduce yourself.
82. John Smith is a lie.
83. A scarf is a fashion statement for the ages.
84. Give them one chance. After that, its okay to attack.
85. There’s always a chance to meet your heroes. Yes, even Shakespeare.
86. Mickey THE idiot. End of story.
87. Raxacoricofallapatorius.
89. Plungers can kill people.
90. Blaidd Drwg. You heard me.
91. No wait, I mean 92.
93. Never trust a nun. Never trust a nurse, and NEVER trust a cat.
94. Its not every day you get to see the back of your head.
95. Catch phrases are perfectly acceptable.
96. Every ship has a self-destruct something, but you better be ready to run - they usually only last about a minute before going boom.
97. You are brilliant, fantastic, perfectly acceptable, and everything in between.
98. When getting on the TARDIS know how to get there, how to pack, and eat first.
99. In a pinch, a scarf makes a great impromptu measuring tool. It’s also useful for tripping your enemies.
100. If you find little dolls laying around the streets, be careful lest the Master turn you into one.
