Apperantly people can be gullible enough to think the first ship they contact will rescue them- in fact, be gullible twice over[end of Seasons 1 and 3]
The only way to really fit new people in a show is to do it completly by accident, even after you wanted to put them in just 3 episodes
When the only female character to have something approaching chemistry with your leading man is an Other, that probably means something's wrong.
Apperantly after making a failed SOS sign, you can take a break for a whole year to become a crack sniper
No one bothers to be bothered by the sky turning purple after a few seconds
Get rid of vans with your father's body, or else they could kill some of your friends many years later
If you meet people played by the likes of Robert Patrick and Clancy Brown, maybe you shouldn't be that shocked when you find out they were lying to you
After you see someone commit murder, maybe it's not the best idea to come in screaming his name so you can be a sitting duck- right Libby?

If you are elected leader of a group, cry a lot and when someone makes a suggestion, say some variation of “we’re done.” People love that.
It is possible to miss when shooting someone at point blank range
Insurance companies don’t like people who can’t actually walk on walkabouts
If somebody steals your kidney, you don't have to feel bad about saying "no" the next time they ask for a favor
If the door to your cell is suddenly unlocked so you can get out and see surveillance monitors, it is probably a set-up
It takes exactly one hour to bleed out if your kidney sack is cut open. Anything less than an hour and you'll be just fine.
Don't worry if you wake up in the middle of surgery. It won't hurt.
If you're the leader of the others, you get to take your furniture when you go camping.
When Ben is carrying a shoulder bag, it is never good news.
Ben wouldn't read Carrie in the bathroom.
If an enemy's computer asks if you want to play chess, you should probably say no.
If you're not on the list, you wouldn't understand, so don't bother asking.
If you want to go on a hike, and the other guy says no, punch a Russian in the face.
Before a trip, if somebody gives you a gun and says you're going to need it, make sure you keep track of it.
If you are stranded on an island, it might be a good idea to look around a little bit.

Let's keep these going. I am laughing uncontrollably. Every entry is hilarious. Our wit is great!!! We really learned a lot. Who said LOST is not an educational show?

In interpersonal communication, it is perfectly okay to answer someone's important question with silence and a blank stare. This always gets the message across. If, for some reason, they're feeling a bit fiesty, say something like, "It's - complicated," or make fun of them for asking you in the first place.
It is possible for a girl who is supposedly smart (evading police for years) to, in the heat of the moment, sleep with a man who admitted to carrying STDs in her presence.
If you're going to take on the smart people, make sure you've read Steinbeck.
Glasses always up the sexiness. Being in the Lord of the Rings also helps. As does walking with a cane, looking good in a tight, wet black Tshirt, and wearing eyeliner.
If you ever have pain in your lower back, assume the worst. And then BE THE NICEST YOU CAN POSSIBLY BE to the first spinal surgeon you meet.
If a psychologist tells you that something will be freeing for you, whatever it is, do it. Even if it means ruining an entire stash of food other stranded people might like to eat.
Steam opens up your pores. (Supposedly.)
"Secret" scenes are about the lamest things in the world. (Unless they involve Michael Emerson in any form.) And NEVER believe TV producers when they promise "mindblowing" answers, or even answers at all.

• Don't ever pick up dolls laying on the forest floor. • Ethan is great at kidnapping pregnant women but don't ask him to fix your plumbing. OMG, my son's name is Ethan, and he doesn't know how to fix any plumbing problems. I better see what he is up to.  ROTFL Oh, dear Edith! |

If you're going to take on the smart people, make sure you've read Steinbeck. Or better yet, Dostoevsky's "Brother Karamasov." The bonus here is that it might take you long enough to read it, that someone else will have take on the smart people. And one other thing: If you think one gun and one bullet is going to stop them … think again. |

I love all of these! Unfortunately, I'm reading them in the office at the moment and keep having to hide behind my monitor to laugh silently without my manager noticing...

If you need surgery, don't ask the doctor to do it for you. Plan a way to meet him or her in the middle of nowhere (make sure s/he brings some friends along), incapacipate the doctor with a tazer gun, put a potato sack on his or her head, lock the doctor up in an aquarium tank made for sharks and dolphins, torture the hell out of the doctor, and only when the doctor finally wants to do the surgery, you go ahead and accept. (This procedure makes HMOs look really good.)
When you are given orange juice laced with tranquilizers, don't hesitate, just drink it all down without any questions.
Never express that your former spouse would be better off to be run over by a bus to a man wearing eyeliner. Your wish may come true.
Listening to Korean ghost stories in Korean is very funny.
Torches can be lit and shut at will in the jungle, all you have to do is yell "Light'em up."

- If you find a plane in the middle of a jungle, it's best not to tell anyone.
- Diamonds totally mean everything when you're stranded on an island.
- You can tell who the bad guys are by their outward appearances.
- People named Karl are natural cowards and let their girlfriend do everything for them.
- Don't give anyone your kidney without asking questions first.
- That guy who's a complete jerk to everyone is actually a tortured soul. You just need to waste your time and energy on him first.
- If someone gives up, is on the ground, unarmed, the thing to do is shoot them because they followed the orders of a very dangerous person a month ago.

If you thought someone was an evil ass before, just wait till you see him when he thinks he's in Hell
Shows are contractuly obligated to have at least one girl on girl catfight in the rain
Russians have magical powers to find out anything and everything about your life, no matter how secret
If you wanna save a pregnant woman's life, you drug and kidnap them
When you hear voices saying that the Others "are coming for the boy" you don't bother to ask them to be more specific and save a lot of trouble
If you're sleeping with a girl your boss likes, maybe you should be more suspicious when he sends you to influtrate a group of plane tail section survivors
On an island where you die if you get pregnant there, shockingly no one's heard of birth control or condoms
If you're in the Tom Cruise family and you work for J.J Abrams, your character is obligated to be called Ethan

Hidden, secret tropical islands do not have wild rabbits. They only have one type of rabbits: White, which are usually rare in the wild.
Blood is easily obtainable by just jabbing someone in the arm. You don't have to find a vein.
It's OK to beat up somebody for the heck of it, but once the girl who is watching you beat up the person admits to loving the victim, you must stop the beating.
Small propeller planes can fly from Africa to the middle of the Pacific Ocean without refueling.
Tattoos are important symbol of your leadership.

Lost has taught me to appreciate the art of reading again.  Just for that, the whole show is worth it.  I've just finished my first Lost related book (ie books some how mentioned in reference to the show) - The Moon Pool. It helps that I'm now on the commuting bandwagon and spending lots of times on trains. |

-Tree-frogs can be REALLY annoying -Juliet is willing to kill a whole cow just to make a cheeseburger -Ben will always have the last laugh even when he's tied to a tree -Just because you may be shot and you're in an actual grave, it doesn't mean you're dead -Spinal surgeons have trouble letting things go -You can always expect Locke to save the day -Russians are very hard to kill  |
