Give us advice, tips, and tricks about life and all sorts of random stuff.

- Don't eat yellow snow

- I think carrying a pen around at all times is a good idea for when you get good ideas.

- Eat toast upside down

- Carry your wallet in your front pocket

Quote:
- If you're worried about hitting your finger while hammering in a nail, use a pair of needle nose pliers to hold the nail for the first few whacks. After it's been driven in a little, you shouldn't need to hold it at all if you're coming straight down with the hammer.



Quote:
- Keep an emergency kit in your car. Change of clothes, water, etc.



Quote:
- Dry off your razor on a towel after shaving. It'll make the blades last longer.



Quote:
- If you're printing things that you don't have to hand in (like resumes or term papers), change your print settings to "Fast Draft" instead of normal. It'll save a bunch of ink, and will print much faster.



Quote:
- Never, ever lend money to anyone you want to keep in your life.



Quote:
- If you ever get a nosebleed, don't do the pinch the bridge of the nose tilt head back shove toilet paper up your nostrils bullshit. Don't even bother putting a thing to your nose.

Take a paper towel (toilet paper or a tissue will work in a pinch), rip it in half, ball it up, and shove it as far up between your front two teeth and your upper lip as you can.

Your nosebleed will stop, immediately, without another drop - regardless of how bad it is. Leave the paper back in for about 15 minutes and you're clotted.





Long as I remember The rain been coming down.
Clouds of Mystery pouring Confusion on the ground.
Good men through the ages, Trying to find the sun;
And I wonder, Still I wonder, Who'll stop the rain.

Don't get high on your own supply



I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol

Quote:
Go out and buy something for <$5 for your significant other. No seriously, do it right now. Then give it to him/her the next time you see 'em. Surprising them out of nowhere with something cute and thoughtful, or even something "boring" or "lame" like their favorite candy bar or a flower or a new guitar pick will make their day, especially if they were having a crappy day beforehand.


Quote:
If you are getting a letter of recommendation for graduate school or something, tell them you need it a week or two before it's actually due. If a professor flakes out on you (something that can be all too common), you're not completely hosed because you provided yourself a safety net. You don't want the integrity and punctuality of your application hinging on the responsibility of someone else.


Quote:
Another study tip: When you get back from class, spend a little time and type up all your handwritten notes. I find that stuff just sticks in my head when I do, with the added bonus of not having to decipher my handwriting when I do go back to check them. I also retype my notes again instead of studying.

Always wear clean underwear.

For canker sores: Mix warm water with a couple teaspoons (or more) of baking soda and gargle. Do this a couple times a day and you'll see a huge difference in 24 hours. It tastes salty, but it works. wink

For real Mig?? I don't know nothing about that, so I'll believe you. Just where in the hell would I get a groundhog? Ha ha...not quite sure I'd know one if I saw one, let alone where to find the grease. lol

For real TIS. It's one of those mountain remedies. When you fry up the groundhog meat you just save the grease. I swear this is the best for an earache.

Ever have a "dent" in your carpet from some heavy furniture being on it. It looks ugly when you move the furniture. Just put an ice cube in the indentation. Wait for it to melt. Once it does, blot up the water with some paper towels. The indentation should disappear.

Also, to get gum out of a rug - freeze it; put an ice cube on it and when the gum hardens sufficiently, you should be able to remove it from the rug without leaving a mess.

Don't eat Cheetos and masturbate afterwards, or else your "thing" will turn orange.

If you're going to cheat on your Girlfriend, remember to remove the condom before you get home. You don't want to jump in the shower with her the next morning and have the rubber fall off onto the floor.

OK - true story. My parents went to some famous Chinese/Polynesian restaurant in Manhattan for their anniversary. My mother didn't notice that there was gum on the chair when she sat down. When they tried to leave, she was literally stuck to the chair. She finally got up and there was this HUGE wad of gum stuck to her behind. They were supposed to go to a Broadway show afterwards, so my mom was freaking out about what to do.

The maitre d' came running over and told her that he could put ice on the gum, it would freeze, and he could just pull it right off.

So, there's my mother in the bar with a strange Chinese man rubbing ice on her ass. He pulls on the gum and RIP, tears this gigantic hole in her dress. She was wearing a black dress with a beige slip under it, and they still had to walk to the theater. She wrapped her fur stole around her waist and had to go like that. lol

If you want to get candle wax out of your carpet place a white towel over the wax and go back and forth over the towel a couple times with a hot iron the wax come right out of the carpet and onto the towel.
