I know I have some but can't think of any right now.

If you're in the dark and got a bunch of keys, know grooves of ones you need to use to identify in the dark. But usually you'll have a cellphone/mp3 to provide you with a light source.

If you're in high school and got a class to dick around in and say, you missed some great BW games last night (or dawn) and your school blocks youtube, I watched them by dl'ing them via keepvid dot com. Dunno how wide this will work but it was sweet watching some epic games in school.

I hate restroom doors which I have to pull to get out, so I use the towel I just used to open most.

If you eat Korean bbq apparently the more you cut before its cooked more flavor will be lost?

Man I have no life wisdoms T_T

Personal life experience

1) Pass your driving test ASAP.

2) Don't fucking buy a car until your 25, no matter how much you want one or 'how cool' it will make you, you don't have enough money, ever. (Until your 25)

Being popular is vastly more useful to your career than being clever.

You can tell what a person is really like by seeing how they treat people that can do nothing for them.

Before you can manage to succeed, you need to learn to cope with failure.

Confidence, not competence, is most people's biggest limiting factor.

If you dont have a heavy job:
Do some situps, some pushes, headlifts and stretch when you get out of bed 5-10 minutes with no rush, you'll feel much better during the day and your body will thank you for it, if you are working with your body, just take the time to stretch.

I didnt realize just how much this helps if your sitting still lots(office work etc), it dosent apply if your still young/working out etc, but as you hit 30 and is swamped with work/kids and go to bed early; thoose 10 minutes every morning greatly helped me feel like myself again =)

My life wisdow is basicly 'keep exercising alittle as you grow older' I'am sad now.
Just because you can now store where everyone was and is, what they like, what they fear who they talk to and who they love. It does not mean we should so spy upon our fellow man in a dystopia far worse then 1984

I disagree ! I had a car since I was 16 (im 22) and theres no way I could live without one. I guess that depends on where you live, im from a small town with no public transportation.

When at university sleep in the lecture room you have first thing the next day. That way you dont need to wake up till the lecture starts.



you would have an even better alarm clock then an android that lets you calculate stuff at our University.. the security would kick your ass

keep the weed in your pocket not in your backpack so you can drop it when the cops approach instead of awkwardly trying to take it out of your bag



Don't keep it in your pocket, the aroma gets trapped and builds up letting little bursts of it out at a time, making the smell very noticable. Instead, take your shoe and lift up the sole inside of it, and slide it under there, there's no room for any smell to get out (not that it's full proof, just keeps cops from smelling it instantly) and unless they are specifically looking for drugs, they won't ask you to take your shoes off during a pat down.


These quoted posts are worthy of a double facepalm.

First of all, if you're trying to hide it, why would you show it to the cops by dropping it? That's pretty stupid. Secondly, don't possess cannabis where it is illegal. Move to someplace tolerant if you must have it.

Keeping cannabis in your shoe is slightly more stupid than putting it in a bag inside your pocket. It would ruin it by smashing and potentially pick up nasty foot odors.

For proper storage and transportation, use a glass mason jar with screw-top lid. It contains the smell and prevents it from being smashed. For small amounts, put it in a contact lens case so it doesn't bounce around in a jar which can knock off resin glands.

The most useful internet trick of ALL TIME if you're using firefox. Instead of typing "www.google.com"
type google in the address bar and press "ctrl+enter". It pains me to watch people write "www" and ".com".

a better trick if you're using firefox is to just type in what you're going to search into the bar right away if you're feeling lucky
otherwise create a custom search hotkey by right clicking the search field > "add keyword for this search" (in my case google is g) and anytime you want to search for say, life hacks, you'd type in the address bar "g life hacks" and you'd get to the google page.

also, custom search for everything rules. W for wiki, UD for urbandictionary, TLwiki for liquipedia, y for youtube, etc. screw homepages of searching sites!

If you ever wake up on a winter morning with a mildly sore throat, immediately do some stretching and then max out a set (or two/three if you cannot do many) of pushups on the floor. Sore throat gone.

Most of the girls i know say that I have a huge penis, which is false (i have a normal size, maybe a little more than average but nothing so big). In fact I choose my pants in a way that they make this part of my body easy to see. Girls then can't get their eyes of it, and think they are sexually attracted by me (it work, almost everygirl i've been with told me about that).
This is a trick I've taken from Jim Morrisson, lead singer of the doors, who used to design his own pants in a way that his crotch attract the eye.



Sooo, you have a life trick about your penis.. but you choose not to tell us how you make your penis appear larger. =/

When writing a paper, you can obtain sources by going to wikipedia clicking on the bibliography links (most of my teachers dislike citing wikipedia, but wiki articles have plenty of good sources).

I always remember other uses for house hold items (there was a large pic for this too)
I dug up some links though:

http://www.lifehack.org/articles/lifestyle/101-uses-of-everyday-household-items.html
http://www.wackyuses.com/
http://www.womansday.com/Articles/Shelter/Organizing-Cleaning/15-Clever-Uses-for-Household-Items.html

- Microwave your sponges, just 5 seconds will kill 99% of germs/bacteria (I usually do it for 10, it makes the sponge warm ^_^)

- Avoid stinky work shoes by placing a piece of static sheet to it (the stuff you throw into the dryer)

- The same static sheet can be used to tame bad hair days, just rub it on the part thats out of control

Instead of dirting a bowl, just mix the mayo and tuna in the can after you squeeze out all the water with the lid. I also use mustard tabasco and pepper in there too.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)
