Things I learned from watching Lost


  • You can survive a plane crash
  • There are mysterious islands that can cure any ailments.
  • If you do get stranded on an island chances are you are not the only people there.
  • There are monsters lurking in the jungle.
  • Redemption is normally a good thing. Redemption on the island however means you will die soon.
  • Never use 4, 8, 15, 16, 23 and 42 as lottery numbers. You might win money but shit will happen to your family.
  • Invisible people? They do exist.
  • When traveling by plane do pack a brush. In case the plane crashes and you don’t survive someone might need it.
  • When traveling by plane pack a suitcase full of knives – you never know when you might have to skin a boar. That is if they let you on the plane to begin with, knives and all.
  • Skills and things that might come useful if stranded on a deserted island fishing/gardening/swimming/guns/knives/backgammon/cards/pregnancy tests/ping pong table/golf clubs
  • Polar bears can inhabit tropical islands.
  • There is a reason to push the button.
  • If you decide to stop pushing the button all hell will break loose and sky will turn purple.
  • Food can drop from the sky.
  • You don’t necessarily lose weight if you only eat fruit.
  • Dynamite can sweat.
  • Cant open doors? Blow them up, that is why God invented sweating dynamite.
  • Statue of Virgin Mary is never just a statue of Virgin Mary.
  • Do not have unprotected sex on the island; you will end up a) dead or b) pregnant.
  • Some are prone to flashbacks. Some are prone to flash forwards. Only Jack is prone to both.
  • If stranded on an island with monsters, bears and strange people trying to kill you it is a good idea to hide guns/information/hatches from your fellow survivors.
  • If Desmond starts to follow you around, its time to write your will brother.
  • How to get rid of boring characters? Bury them alive.
  • 6 weeks hiatus in the middle of the season is a very bad idea.
  • To start a new season in February is even worse idea.
  • Acceptable and commendable – mind-blowing season finale; unacceptable and contemptible – 15 crappy episodes before that.
