Yes. I don't even like trying on clothes.

I always assume that the odds of someone with cum on their hands having touched a given article of clothing in a store is pretty significant, like maybe 25-30%. In a store where a lot of teenagers shop, like American Eagle or Hollister, it's pretty close to 100%. I have no real basis for those numbers, but I can't think of any reason to not believe that every piece of clothing I buy may very well have jizz molecules on it.

WTF? No wonder this country is messed up when it comes to health care and paranoia.

It sounds honest, nonconfrontational, doesn't openly admit guilt, and submits to the officer's authority without giving him any reason to want to screw you over.
The problem with these sorts of things (along with the "I have no excuse") is that if the officer does give you a ticket, you're guaranteed to lose in court.

Some general 2p2 ones that haven't been mentioned yet:

- How to fold a t-shirt

- If a piece of clothing is lightly wrinkled, try throwing it in the dryer with a moist cloth

- Brush your tongue

- Use a loofah

Some of my own:

- Drinking natural apple cidar vinegar mixed with water everyday is very good for you. It can help with acne, weight loss, fatigue, bowel problems, and cleaning your organs. To go further, you can also turn apple cidar vinegar into cheap, effective face wash/body wash products.

- If you're one of the guys that constantly crosses his arms or puts his hands in his pockets...stop. Next time you don't know what to do with your arms/hands, just let them hang by your side and touch your index fingers to your thumbs. Much better body language for most settings.


I'm sure I'll think of more/better ones later

this really little and i prob only do them cos im a poor ass uni student but:

-whening hanging clothes on washing line, turn them inside out to stop/reduce fading from sun

-when walking, if possible walk on grass instead of footpath will save soles from wear (very slightly i no) and also hurt your feet less if in shoes with less sole.

Coming to the realization that our sense of self is an illusion and that most decisions that we agonize over are ultimately inconsequential has been a huge relief.

i also like the flat ones and my technique is to use both of my thumbs and pinch in between the 2 bones at either end of the wing, then just unfold the wing to open it up

it's a way better technique than that stupid video

Now I really want chicken wings.
Yea the elevator thing doesnt work, well at least not where I work and where I used to live. I really doubt the calling card thing work either...

For me, this was life-changing, but that might be because I'm stupid.

I used to hold my knife with my pointer finger on top of the spine, thinking it gave me more stability.

Much better way is to pinch the knife with my thumb and pointer, then wrap my other fingers around handle.

Wow, the apple cider vinegar one is a cold remedy I've used and it works very well.

I have the exact recipe written down somewhere but I usually just mix a little organic apple cider vinegar (I think it def. needs to be organic) w/ OJ and honey. Usually I'm cleansed within a day.

When you go into a movie theatre go the far aisle of the room and then go up the stairs as most people will automatically go up the first set of stairs they see. Works at GA concerts as well.

If you're trying to call customer service for some company and don't want to spend an hour wading through their automated system, do not press any buttons whatsoever. Some people still have rotary phones and a lot of companies still make allowances for these people.
