*Sticking stuff (posters, pictures, funny cartoons, etc) on the walls of my room is okay, as long as I do not damage said walls.
25. I am not allowed to touch the Doctor's post-it notes.
*They are vital reminders about modifications made to different essential systems, not spirograph designs.
*Just because I can't read it doesn't mean it's not a language.
*The Doctor will not tell me what it means or teach me how to read it, so I should stop asking.

*Or googly-eyeball glasses.
*Or any other kind of prank glasses.
35. The Doctor does not look like Barty Crouch, Jr. from the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire movie.

#15

*It's completely and totally immoral.
*And could possibly create a parallel later on.
*Plus, it's just mean to tell them what their kids' names are going to be.

*But he will admit something about the number 42.

- I am no longer allowed to tell off-worlders that I am Earth royalty.
* Or a rich widow on the prowl for a new husband.
* Or Earth's most famous rock star.
* Or the imaginary mother of the Doctor's non-existant children.
* Most especially that last one.
* I'm not allowed to talk to off-worlders, period.
- I am not secretly a Time Lord.
* I am not allowed to imply that I am.
- I am not allowed to imitate the Doctor's accent.
* Even if I am pretty good at it.
* Because no one thinks it's funny.
* Just because Jack thinks it's funny, doesn't mean it is.
* I'm no judge, either.
* If the Doctor says something's not funny, it's not.
- I am not allowed to use the TARDIS to see what my grandma's getting me for Christmas.

*Even if being chased by Daleks, Cybermen, Sliveen…
*…or Captain Jack's latest sexual conquest gone bad.
-I will not use the TARDIS to create déjà vu against my greatest enemies
*or to cause their music to skip
*or trick them by tapping them on the shoulder
-I will not use the infinite supply of tin foil in the kitchen to make monsters and randomly leave them in time and space.
*I have been informed this is rude
*Ten showed me his therapy bills from when the last companion did it.
-I will not wander around the TARDIS saying, "It's bigger on the inside."
*Even if it is true
*Even if the Doc's favorite sneakers get lost in it somewhere.
*And especially if said sneakers were in his pocket (don’t ask).
-I will not use the TARDIS as a study aid.
*Even though I can use it to see the test early.
*Or to sit through a semester's worth of lectures and "double check" certain facts
*Or find ways to blackmail the professor with random facts from his youth that he wishes to hide.
-I will not use the TARDIS to memorize all the old episodes of Star Trek.
*Just because his Ninth incarnation spoke with a Northern accent doesn't mean he's a Trekker.
*Although old episodes of Doctor Who are okay.
*The Doctor seems to like it when I do that.
*And promise to stay away from the Tin Foil.
(and this one is spoilered for the sake of those not yet in the gutter)
-I promise I will not play fetch with K-9.
*That daft metal dog takes perverse pleasure in making ME fetch the stick!
*And calling me his "Be-Yatch!"
*But I will play fetch with Captain Jack.
*Even though he too takes perverse pleasure in making me fetch the stick.
*As long as we don't disturb the Doctor.
-The term "Joyride" does not apply to the TARDIS.
*it is a sensitive device used specifically for the purposes of benefiting Time and Space.
*And her name is Sarah, not Joy.

*Neither are Jack's.
*Not even if he says it's ok.
The TARDIS does not have a "vibrate" setting.
*But if there is one, the Doctor isn't telling.
*Neither is Jack, but he does have this coy look in his eyes.
I am not allowed to "borrow" the TARDIS and a supply of retcon from Torchwood to go back and "convince" the TWoP PTB that putting the DW recaps on PH is a bad idea.
*I can, however, "convince" them never to touch "Hey Paula". That's just a mercy killing.
I am not allowed to use the Chameleon Arch to try to turn Ten into Casanova.
*Not even if the rest of the Companions are on board for this.
*ESPECIALLY if the rest of the Companions are on board for this.
*Although that rat-tail would be kinda fun to play with.

*Even if it would be really funny for him to meet "The Fab Five" and get made over.
*Jack's alright with it.
*The Doctor still says no.
-I am not allowed to use the TARDIS to go back in time to convince certain television producers not to produce certain television finales.

*Especially if I try to do it in a Scottish accent
I am not allowed to shoot Jack at Sci Fi convention, so he can pop back to life and yell "There can be only one!"
*Especially when Christopher Lambert is one of the Con guests.
I am never to mention any of the Highlander Movies or Spin-off TV shows ever again.
*Especially the Cartoon, because it was way too weird.
I am not allowed to shoot Jack at Sci Fi conventions while he is dressed up as the Crow.
*Even if it gets him Goths of both genders.
Jack and I are not allowed to attend Science Fiction Conventions any more.

I am not allowed to use the TARDIS to download iTunes and make a pop music soundtrack for my life.
*Just because everyone gets a kick out of The Master doing it doesn't mean it's equally amusing when I do it.
*It's one thing to make a Playlist of Doom if your activities include world domination. But no one needs a soundtrack for mundane activities like brushing their teeth and going to their office job.

I am not allowed to use the TARDIS to go back in time to Hispanola in 1492, just so I can sit on the beach in a lawn chair and ask Columbus what took him so long.
I am not allowed to go back in time to L'Anse aux Meadows, Newfoundland, in 1000 so I can sit in a lawn chair and ask Leif Erricson what took him so long.
I am not allowed to take any of the lawn chairs out of the TARDIS again.
