1. If you have trouble opening a jar lid, wear a latex glove to have more grip when prying the lid open.

2. If you are ever shipwrecked at sea, never drink the sea water as it will dehydrate you like no other.

3. If an alligator ever grabs a hold of something, such as your leg, poking it in the eye will make it let it go. Usually...

I have my own useful advice I discovered :O

If you want to open a tough jar, like apple sauce, or pickles... Take a knife, and jab a little hole in the top. It'll even out the air pressure and the jar will be easy as pie to open. Don't do it with smelly food you intend to put back into the fridge though

I R CREATIVE

PS: There's also pouring hot water over the lid... but that's messier than my solution, and everyone who isn't retarded already knows that.

The other solution to the jar problem is using a short knife and sticking the tip of it UNDER the lid, by the wall of the jar, so as to pry it open a little bit and possible relieve the pressure. Even if no pressure escapes, it will be easier to twist off a slightly imperfect lid.

If you ever get your penis stuck in some sort of slot or hole, don't freak out - do something that distracts you and uses your brain.

The blood will flow out of your erection, and you will be able to safely pull your penis out.

Another brute-force method for the jar lids when any of those methods don't work is to take a strong solid rod like the base of your knife/spoon/fork/screwdriver and pummel it at the center of the lid causing it to sort of curve in. Do it until it is easy to unscrew the lid or until you can pluck it out(more likely non-resealable).

Some of the only memories I have of Warcraft 2 are two of the "random tips" at the start of a match: Never pet a burning dog, and never spit into the wind.
