To get perfect hard-boiled eggs, put your eggs into cold water and turn the stove to medium-high. Wait until you get a vigorous rolling boil, then turn the heat off. Let the eggs sit for at least 10 minutes, as long as you want, and they will be perfect! It's super easy.

If you bite your nails, don't buy the peppery stuff that's supposed to help you stop. It doesn't. Even worse, every time you scratch yourself, the pepper extract will spread and you will be in severe pain. Trust me, I had that stuff all over my balls and eyes. It was terrible.

Yeah, you're not so far off there. The problem is, this shit spreads with water, so after my balls caught on fire I took a shower, which caused the pepper to run down my legs, and some that was randomly on my face to run into my eye. I used soap and that only quickened the burning.

Do not recommend.

Milk neutralizes most pepper-like irritants. Some chemical in the milk bonds with it and makes it harmless, water just moves it around until it connects with your soft tissue. Yayyy i specifically helped someone and followed the op guidelines

I love this thread.

My 2 cents regarding WATER.

The human body is made up of around 80% water. If you're not hydrated well you can have some not so great side effects; irritability, goggyness, fatigue, cramps. So drink a full glass of water whenever you have are feeling one of these symptoms, you can never have too much water.

tips to help you remember to drink water:
-If your urine is yellow or smelly, drink some water
-Bags under your eyes, drink some water
-light headed or dizzy, drink some water
-If you are craving some soda, juice or milk, drink some water first
-Feeling hungry before meal time, drink some water. This actually helped me lose weight because I found out most the time when I'm trying to think of something to eat I'm really just thirsty.
-Drink a glass of water before bed. Makes getting up in the morning easier because you feel refreshed and you'll probably have to pee anyway.




You've got a point.

but also note this, drink too MUCH water (like 1 gallon -.-) each day and you risk getting urinary incontinence and that's not very fun
Amatures practice until they can get it right. Pros practice until the can't get it wrong

Enjoy

SOS Morse code on cross walks is what the paramedics use to stretcher someone across the street. Next time you need to cross, press 3 short presses on the button, 3 long presses, and 3 short presses again to change the light so you can cross the street. Do it at a rather quick pace to get it to work.

Also: litemind.com - mind hacks
Marcandangel.com - life/mind/productivity hacks
Lifehacker.com - tech and technical application
hackaday.com - hardcore tech hacking

Wow can I get the source or can anyone confirm the SOS morse code on cross walks? That sounds awesome cause I have to cross multiple crosswalks into campus and it takes forever.


I can confirm that most cross walk buttons in big cities are placebos. I don't know if this applies to the SOS trick, but most of the buttons are disabled and it takes exactly the same amount of time for the light to cycle when you press the button as when it is not pressed.

Its much more likely that these buttons work in smaller towns and whatnot. In big cities they decided it was better to not fuck up the entire traffic pattern for the convenience of pedestrians.


In New Zealand pressing the button simply enables the light to go off during it phase. So itll go at the same time as traffic going straight anyway, so no time is lost whether or not pedestrians are crossing, but if you dont press the button the light wont go green, however if you know ur phases you can cross during this time anyway no problems (I do this tons)

If you want a free USB flash drive, go to your school lost and found and tell the person you lost a "white <insert brand here> USB", as most of them are white. Scored lots of free USBs this way.

I guess I should post one of my own.

In virtually all wireless g routers you can change the channel your WiFi operates on. If your WiFi is operating on the same channel or a close channel to your neighbours, you will have a weaker connection due to the need for more error checking added as well as making sure it is clear for your device to talk, which is needed because of the interference of your neighbours WiFi. Typically you want to be 5 channels apart from a neighbouring WiFi using the same frequency, and since there are 11 channels in wireless g you can have 3 WiFi's operating at channels 1, 6, and 11 with no interference of each other.

tl;dr = change the channel used on your wireless g router to be 5 apart from a neighbouring WiFi using wireless g to increase connection/signal.

There are ways to find out what channel a neighbouring WiFi uses.


As a follow on to this, a lot of people never bother to change their security settings, if you are having intereference problems, try logging onto their Wifi with the default username/password and chaning their settings for them. This works a lot more often than you would think.

When you focus on work/a project, some symptoms of sickness can seem to go away. EG. if you are working hard on a computer engineering project, you may not realise your throat is sore until you try to talk to someone.

It's true my girlfriend does it. I always tell her to stop that shit but she doesn't listen.
I have no idea why you would brush your teeth, then eat and get your mouth full of a bacteria feast. Is it normal to have your mouth taste so unbearlable during the morning that something to drink cant fix it? :/

Scotch & whiskey do not get better with age unlike most wine.


Pretty much all spirits get better with age, however they are aged in casks, whereas wine is matured in the bottle and thus will continue to mature in the hands of the consumer. In fact, to even be called Scotch whisky it must be matured in the cask / barrel etc in Scotland for at least 3 years, although many are matured for longer. Whisky draws its golden colour from the casks used to mature it so you can see that the longer it is left in the cask does have at least a superficial effect, and because all of these casks have previously been used to store sherry, bourbon or other whiskys allows them to absorb some of the previous flavours into the new brew.

A silly life trick that I remembered from my last distillery visit - if you intend to visit a distillery, learn the language used to describe whiskys. Most distillery tours have a sampling session at the end, and if you turn up smartly dressed and (apparently) knowledgable about whisky, you can usually persuade the distillers to allow you to taste some of the more expensive (and wonderful) whiskys the distillery produces for no extra charge.

If you're cold, for instance on a camping trip or something and cant stay warm, go pee A LOT. Your body actually uses a ton of energy to hold it in when it could go to keeping you warm. Seriously this actually helps a lot.

Dont go to class stoned, especially if its a small class. Your professor will know, and he/she will call on you repeatedly


Don't smoke weed period if you can't handle the social interactions that come with everyday life after doing so.

One thing that has helped me alot with women is realising that you need to look at their actions, and not what they actually say.

That perhaps dosent just ring true for women, but men too. People can and will say anything in a moment but what they do is what really matters.


This might hold true in some cases, but in my opinion, for the most part, listening to what women, or what anyone says is key. Body language is certainly important to take note of as it can indicate stances or feelings that are opposite/different to what the person is actually saying. Unless you meant actions as in, how they actually ACT, which of course is true.

"Judge a man by his actions, not by his words"

and another quote along the lines of

"You can measure the greatness of a man by how he treats smaller men around him"

Has probably been said, and it's pretty obvious, but...

When you poop, have put a little bit of toilet paper in the toilet first, it prevents the splash and it also makes the toilet less likely to clog

If wishes were horses we'd be eating steak right now.

If you have trouble going to sleep:
- Don't ever lie down on bed for anything except to sleep - no reading, using your laptop, spacing out, etc.
- If you can't fall asleep after 10-20 minutes lying in bed, then get out of bed and do something for around half an hour until you get sleepy, and then try lying down in bed again

I learned this in class; it has to do with conditioning yourself to associate your bed only with sleeping. If you regularly lie down in bed and do other stuff, then you're going to become used to staying up while lying down in bed.
... or something like this. Sorry, this class is one of my least favourite classes.
