This a little something that creeped up on Yahoo's Robert E. Howard Comics Group that I'm a member of. I share it here now and hope that it tickles you the same way it did me...EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT LIFE I LEARNED FROM THE CONAN TALES
When you think that a naked wench cavorting in the snow is too good

Giving someone flowers is rightfully considered a hostile action.
The Vilayet Sea is apparently the only known natural source of
Simian Growth Hormone.
It is never a good idea to give in to the impulse to flaunt your
Ophidian Ring-Bling before the servants.
Judges in any day and age just don't understand that the legal
phrase "contempt of court" might not have as passive a context as

Amon.
Forgiveness is for wussies. All scores should be settled in
bloodletting. Or cesspool tossing.
A severed head is considered an aphrodisiac.
I bet Conan gets a sympathy twinge in his wrists every time he has
to ask an innkeeper to "put him up" for the night.

Stygian pythons are the cats of the Hyborian Age world.
Pampered princess's have a more highly developed danger sense than
wilderness bred barbarians.
White Boo-tay is to die for.
That old fantasy where a "giant python" is jutting from between your
legs doesn't seem as funny when it turns and looks at you.
"First Mate" is the job's actual description, and you get a free lap
dance as a signing bonus.
"A sponge soaked with gall-spiked wine? Luxury! I hadda make do with
a mouthful of bloody vulture feathers, and I was glad for it!"
