When wiping your ass, just use a dirty sock that goes straight into the washer afterwards. Conserves paper, saves trees, everybody wins.
 
ordering food to res? use a different name on the phone and when they show up... wait around the front desk until they look like they're going to leave. then you walk up to them and ask if theyre going to just take the food back to the restaurant and throw it out... then make them an offer they cant refuse (but is less than what you should have paid)

Its a horrible thing to do and you will probably go to hell.

 
I don't understand this, i thought the speakers were like built into the computer, i never saw any speaker slots on the external casing
 
Life tip thread? ill just go off on things ive learned in the past couple years and hope at least one of these little tips help someone.

use sound owl to download music. Stop converting from youtube.

hang wrinkled shirts in your bathroom when showering in the morning. The steam will help reduce or get rid of the wrinkles. (I dont take hot enough or long enough showers for this to work properly... but apparently it works) This is big when you're traveling.

back up your phone and computer

drink tap water from a nice water bottle, dont buy plastic water bottles or use up your cups

dont date women before 18

dont try to understand women, you will only confuse yourself even more (hey, girls generally understand eachother and they hate eachother)

dont play with guns, fire or knives

put jeans, shoes, nice sweaters and other items you dont want to wash in the freezer to get rid of a smell without washing them (put things in a large freezer bag) and you might want to let your clothing thaw

dont wash nice jeans unless it is absolutely necessary

hang dry your blacks, tshirts and nice things so they dont fade. Dryers are like mini spawns of Satan.

when learning to drive, learn to drive stick

dont spend $40+ on a tshirt

tip well

read more books + buy used textbooks

for you whipped dudes, valentines day is coming up... this is more of a damage control warning then anything

Society is fucked

If you are physically able and old enough to, donate blood (this tip is to help those in need, not you)

I want to say something about not taking ADHD medication... but i feel like that would be too far and is a personal choice. i also feel like everyone has a little bit of ADHD and doctors prescribe it so people can sit down and do math. (society is fucked)

If you're still reading this post, well thankyou and when was the last time you got your parents something nice? Go surprise your mother with some flowers (local grocery store, take a bus maybe?). Give your dad a nice tie or something (this one might get a little expensive, he will know if you buy one from billabong, go to a nice store downtown or in a local shopping center). Remember, youre doing this out of the kindness of your heart, not for any particular reason (and dont let them think there is) but because you're a good kid and shit like this goes a long way.

okay, thats enough for now

 
Reminds me of my method on how to toast a hot dog bun for microwaved hotdogs:

1. Butter your bun to your fancy

2. Start up that toaster with nothing in it

3. Place your bun over the bread slot on its side

4. Rotate bun when desired crispiness is achieved (usually after a minute or 2)

5. Zap your wiener just before your bun's done
 
half of these "life hacks" are just weird ways of doing shit and are in no way easier than the normal way, just like the 2 i the OP i can rip the stem off a strawberry in 2 seconds and eat it or look around for a straw that i probably dont have to do it the 'life hack' way that is slower and harder, and for the second one you can not be retarded or use a candle lighter a convenient life hack that has already been invented
 
yeah, fucking cassette tape box as a phone stand? who actually does that.

that being said, i did try to make the brownie in a mug and it was quite the treat
 
I did this at work, but it was with a cold cheese and bacon bialy, needless to say I started a small fire that I quickly contained
 
here are some useful ones

• never touch a pipe

• put unripe fruit in a bag with ripe bananas for fast ripening

• in summer, fill ice cube trays with coffee to make coffee cubes, which can be added to cold coffee drinks

• turn off your phone when you're eating with someone else, or when in lectures, meetings, etc.

• if you can't be on time, be five minutes early
