Opening pickle jars has never been easier.

1. Get a butter knife and jam the point under any part of the lid, hard.
2. With the tip wedged under the lid, push the base of the knife against the side of the pickle jar. This will cause the knife to bend slightly, may be slightly dangerous in the unlikely event that the tip of the knife were to snap off, beware.
3. The bottom of the knife should be jutting out below the base of the pickle jar. Holding the knife firmly against the jar, bash the base of the knife against a table top 3-4 times until it drives the knife up under the lid and breaks the vacuum seal of the pickle jar.
4. Lid will now practically fall off.

Please refer to my awesome 2min Paint diagrams below.

[image loading]

I worked this out about 2 yr ago and it's never failed.


You can also just rotate tip of the knife after it's wedged in. Might damage tip though but a lot less effort :D I thought this trick with breaking the vacuum seal was common but it's surprising to see how many people force their way into various jars.

I cant image they would throw a perfectly good pizza away before they went home. If I was the workers, I would take the unwanted pizza home and eat it myself. There is a flaw in your plan .

If you then roll the egg over the smooth surface whilest applying a little pressure you get tiny shell pieces all over its surface and you can then easily take of the shell including the annoying extra sticky layer underneath it.

I just run any jar with a stuck metal cap under hot water. Metal expands, and the lid turns easy

How to open a non-twist off bottle with a lighter:
1. Position your left or right hand over the cap of your beverage of choice.
2. Grip the top of the bottle with the cap directly under the fleshy part of your hand between your index finger and thumb. Your thumb should be wrapped around the bottle just below the cap.
3. Position your lighter (or whatever your using) sideways, top slightly down with the bottom edge of the lighter pressing up against the rim of the cap and the middle of the lighter should be resting across some part of your thumb.
4. Push the top of the lighter (facing down) down while bracing the lighter against your thumb.
5. The force applied through the lighter will work as a lever (your thumb is at the pivot point) pushing against the lower part of the cap.
6. Practice this and you will eventually be able to open your beverage of choice with some class.
Tomorrow comes today.

Yeah I worked at Pizza Pizza for a summer job and if there was any pizza left at the end of the night we could just eat it.

That's kinda fucked up bro. I wouldn't want my GF to swallow if she didn't want to, or even take it in her mouth/on her face. Would you want to swallow cum? I doubt it, it's fuckin disgusting, so nobody should have to or be expected to.

While great if you need to hurry, it usually ends up busting the lighter after the 6th or 7th time

Do not give in to hope. Remember that nothing you do has any significance beyond that with which imbue it. Whatever you do, do it for its own sake. When the universe looks on with indifference, laugh, and shout back, "Fuck You!". Rembember that to fight meaninglessness is futile, but fight anyway, in spite of and because of its futility.

If you are on a bus/in a car with someone you don't want to talk to, put on a pair of headphones. Even if they are not plugged into anything, it tells the person who wants to talk to you that you don't want to talk. (Usually works for me, not really a way to get out of a GF bitching at you)

Standing outside in the rain may help you calm down if you are angry. (Not in any fancy clothes/suits, just casual clothes, things you don't care about getting wet.

The vast majority of people do pushups in an awkward and inefficient manner. The proper pushup is done with elbows/arm at roughly 45 degrees to your body and your hands slightly facing outwards. Your forearms should be perpendicular to the floor. This lets you incorporate more muscles and is easier on your joints.

Plus, it looks cooler when you do them correctly.

Push ups also are really good for getting abs.

If you have to hand in any word document digitally, but want to pay some time to do it, open it with Microsoft editor and delete a few signs. If its your turn to show it to your teacher, there will show up an error screen

Don't want to hand in an assignment? (provided they let you hand it in on a memory stick)
get a shitty memory stick that you don't care about and press the port thing into the case you should hear a click sound so that means the stick doesn't work.
Of limited use but it works if you do it right.

So I heard your likes and dislikes doesn't equal everyones. There's nothing wrong with making your cum taste better for your girl, get over yourself.

In general I have found that:

The person who says, "getting drunk is for losers", is someone who never gets invited to parties.
The person who says that, "the girl should love you for who you are" is single.
The person who says, "don't be cheap", has never been poor.
The person who says, "do what you love for a living", has yet to live outside their parents house.
The person who says, "do what is always right", has lived a sheltered life.
Easy doesnt fit into grownup life.
