Fact #75 a Synaptizine overdose is the best way to commit suicide when being sent to brig since MP will have to drag you back and forth from medical a million times.

Fact #76: As an MT it is your primary responsibility to slip everyone who has important jobs. Make sure to smugly point at the wet floor sign when they do this.

Fact #77 any MT can start the supermatter, but only those that are good at their job know that two separate cores are optimal. Store the backup one on the bridge so you know it is safe, and keep it active so you can swap out the cores at a moment's notice.

Fact #81 : All predators are friendly, and you should greet them with many knives to the left leg to show acceptance.
Fact #82 : Genocide is allowed as long as you put it under recreational hours.
Fact #83 : Grenades are usually frowned upon, use all grenades in briefing while the brief is going on to prove your point.
Fact #84 : Xenos can jumped 20 feet in .01 seconds, but arent fast enough to see you load and fire a sadar is 20.
Fact #85 : Apophis loves it when you eject the supermatter and setup the singuloth in briefing, do it often.

Facts?

62: Give the marines a powerful combat stim. But expect them get an overdose by munching pills as if they were jellybeans.
63: B18, shield and machete... And be USCM's version of that classic knight from the dark ages.
64: Throwing knives? Knife rig? Those are there just for pranking the poor newbies.
65: Provoking a Predator is actually less dangerous than pissing the Chief Engineer. SuperMatter >>>>> PlasmaCaster
66: Fuel tanks. Everywhere. Those are our pets actually. Quite tame pet fuel tanks. Calm... like a bomb.
67: We have no traitors here. Why having traitors when you already have the liaison, a commander, executive officer, requisitions officers, MTs, MPs, researcher and a fistful of friendly fire every round?
68: Monkey cubes were actually issued for a reason. Forcefeed those to xenomorphs, for a poetic revenge.
69: Yes, you got it right MP. Commander placing that packet of amborsia vulgaris seeds in researcher's maintenance was a good deed. Go there, confiscate it, arrest him for drug trafficking and protect us all from his Sulaco-breaching chemnades.
70: Place a dead xenomorph in the kitchen's gibber. Make a sandwich of xenomeat. Yummy!
71: That misterious metal flask is actually filled with water. But is excellent for carrying welder fuel in your helmet. (Just don't bang your head in a wall, huh?)
72: MRE? Actually stands for "Meal Rejected by the Enemy".
73: Hack the drinks vendor. Grab some Thirteen Loko cans and keep drinking it. It's a good substance to have in your body, as it dramatically improves your chance of survival. (By having you knocked out in cafeteria, and away from the combat, of course.)
74: Turret and emitter are almost the same thing in some crazed engineer's minds.
75: That bottle of booze is an essential part of the commander's equipment. It turns Iron Bears into your best friends, stops riots, calms rogue survivors and forcing it's contents down your bridge officers throats usually will improve the command staff's efficiency.

Fact 86.

You must join a popular circlejerk group with snowflakey characters so you can be known and worshipped in the server.

Fact #97 : To get rid of that pesky hangnail dip your fingers in xenoblood, it'll get rid of it alright.
