You will doubt it next time you get a cold and it won't work, you will be miserable, and then you can thank us.

Why are you guys trying to make someone else's placebo effect go away? I mean, it works for suzzer, and that's the most important thing.

NoahSD, even if suzzer tells other people about it, there's no harm and only possibly good outcomes. Anyone dumb enough to believe megadoses of vitamin C helps them with colds will benefit from the placebo effect anyway.

Never, ever tell anyone about a crime you have actually committed.

Never accept interview under caution, instead provide a prepared statement with assistance.

Never confess.

Always trust your gut instinct... Your initial gut instinct was right when taking the SAT, it is right in poker...it is right in life.

water down all liquid soaps 25%....save $

Its fun to be a baller, but sucks getting robbed. Dont carry around more money than you need just to look cool.

If a customer service rep or store clerk tells you they cant do something it usually means they can if you are persistent, if not their manager can

Either this is all a level or you're possibly the most revolting human being I've ever heard of! Feeding your guests second-hand "mall food" casserole is disgusting, not to say unsanitary. I guess by "guests" you really mean fellow hobos?

If you care for your pet birds, why are you feeding them poop-wash seeds. That can't be good for them.

Gelatine & bread crumbs??? Does that toast well? You could save more money by tying your tea strainer to a long stick and paying a visit to your nearest pond. Whenever someone feeds the ducks, quickly scoop up the bread with your stick/strainer combo. As an added advantage, you'll occassionally scoop up the odd duck for free.

1. Breadcrumbs
2. Gelatine
3?????????
4. Profit!

Cops can be a tricky situation, acting indifferent and not intimidated can someti
es throw em off balance and will work... This isn't a great trick but a funn story... Friend blatantly runs a stop sign small town at 2am... Cop asks him why... He genuinley (kids an air head) says he didn't think there would be any cops out so late... Cop.looks dumbfounded and tells him to go home

as far as trick, upsidedown sandwich is goof for optimal condiment tasting... Similarly frosted mini wheats... One side frosted.... Put the frosted side on your tounge

during half time of a sporting event record it if u aren already and watch something else to give u a slight commercial buffer while still having the "live feel"

I'd imagine interview under caution is short for

Interview under caution of an attorney. Meaning you get interrogated but have your lawyer present to tell you "you don't have to answer that." "my client has nothing to say on the matter" etc

May have to try that. Although just scouting during first period/quarter for open seats and taking them after the break if noone comes usually works. And actually in your scenario it's likely the seller is a scalper and could just show up at the door and sell it there.

Indeed.

It's also recorded and the slightest inconsistency, even about unrelated matters, is very bad for you.

Tell your lawyer the 'truth', without admitting to any crime. They will read between the lines and prepare a statement for you.

Stick to this.

Do not, under any circumstance, bottle it, if and when the police tell you they know you did it, and explain how they know.

This may or may not be true, and it anyways irrelevant.

Knowing and proving are two separate matters.

Why assist those who have a vested interest in your guilt?

This is all fairly obvious, but it astounds me how many unfortunates I have been personally aquatinted to, that manage to mess this up.

The milage in your country may vary..
