Know Yourself!

  For a long time I used to think that KYS stands for Know Your Shit, as in - learn about the topic before speaking about it ~~(you fucking bitch) ~~

  So I would use it regularly and with no overly ill intentions, just throwing it at some people I would deem ignorant

    I spent a summer using a racial slur because I thought it meant “dude” in Italian.

  Business people are used to KYC so that makes sense. Unfortunately for them, I’m from the Internet…

    Kill your customers. Kill yourself, as well as your customers.

    I think “Know Thyself” comes from an inscription over the entrance to the Temple of Apollo at Delphi

      Except it’s just “Know Yourself”, because the inscription was in ancient Greek, so when translating it to English, we’d use modern English, not centuries-old English which uses personal pronouns that haven’t been used in English in centuries.

      Yes but here I was referring to Sun Tzu’s Art of War in which he explains that if you know yourself (your own forces) and you know your enemy, you will win all your battles. Sorry for the confusion.

      But yeah, perhaps the people in this picture were referring to that one?
