What is Dos and DON'Ts?

A (usually) non-serious phrase that can be said by a person in reference to something they just witnessed or were told about that's often, but not always, very difficult or nearly impossible to do in real life.

Humorous and fallible attempt to try and milk coolness/points from any form of audience.

Ex. 1

Wizard: *shoots lightning bolts out of his ass*

Steve: I can do that but I don't wanna.

Ex. 2

Person in commercial: *jumps out of a plane while doing his taxes and fighting off a lion*

Jimbo to Molly: I can do that but I don't wanna.

Ex. 3

Lance: Man, I just saw this sick stunt. The guy was handcuffed while riding a motorcycle down a ramp, and then jumped through 5 fiery hoops over a shark-infested pool that also had spikes at the bottom of it.

Bobby: Pfft... I can do that but I don't wanna.

Dos and DON'Ts - meaning

Basically saying do it or don't,it just matters on what happens on one of those choices. If you or someone else is not really wanting to do something, but at the same time you technically can do that thing, that's where the phrase "You either do or don't" comes into play.

Example 1: Someone that works can get up to go to work, but they don't want to, if someone else says or that person remembers the phrase "You either do or don't", they will think about the outcomes of either decision, therefore proceeding with one of the choices depending on how they want it to play out.

Example 2: Have better eating habits to better your health or keep up bad eating habits and then your health declines
