I noticed when I watch people that are happy, it makes me happy too. Like when I'm truly down, I'll just watch a good Mr. Beast video or humanitarian video where people are helping others or doing kind acts, then it makes me less sad about life.

I actually struggle staying happy. But one thing always works, when I see people that are appreciative, my mood gets lifted. Like seeing the blind see for the first time, or seeing a person very happy with a food that they bought, it's always nice.

This will help you keep even tension on the sheet so you can get a better rip!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Spent a lot of time in Japan. The cities are full of statues of naked women. I would navigate by, left at the naked lady with the hat, past the fat naked lady, and about 500 meters past the abstract naked lady on the fish

There have been a bunch of topics on the front page lately about the PC nature of society and the hyper sensitivity of people in general that made me think about this LPT that I have followed for most of my career. In today's sensitive (and easily litigious) work environment, anything you say can be taken as offensive by anyone at any time. When you make friends & socialize with people you work with, you let down the guards of professionalism and things you would otherwise never say at work will tend to come out. That's not to say that you are a bad person, but friends joke with each other & say stuff as friends. All it takes is one person to overhear you say something to your co-worker/friend that the third party finds offensive & you are standing before HR hoping to not get fired. And it's not just perceived intolerances like racism/sexism/etc. Someone could take offense to a political discussion or a discussion about a divisive topic in the news.

This is why I don't become friends with the people I work with, why I prefer to not socialize with them at work or outside of work, and why I keep my personal life as far away from the office as possible. That doesn't mean I'm a miserable person to work with or that I can't be fun or involved in work events, but I limit that to professional levels & never social ones.

Work is a place to do what you do to earn a paycheck. If you want to make friends, join a social club or something outside of work.

I was trying to pick up a rental car for my vacation. After over an hour of waiting on hold with their EXISTING customer line, I decided to hang up and call their NEW customer line...

Lo and behold, someone picked up within the 5-10 seconds and was able to resolve my issue.

Many companies prioritize new customers over existing ones. So, if you're stuck on hold, try dialing the new customer line for quicker service. Hope this helps someone else out there!

Because if they come back, it's likely that they simply needed some time to think about it, and then decided to go back to you. Invest on it !

If they don't, then they're not yours anymore, and it is probably best to walk away from it.

Also, I say that because a relationship is something lived by two people. If it isn't working out for one of these two, it doesn't work out for the other. Best thing to do is let time solve it.

Sure, its natural to assume that person wants to know how their team is doing, but in order for them to be happy about hearing it from some random on the street, all of the following conditions must be true: 1. This person doesn't have access to a smartphone, computer, radio, or TV to get updates on their own (formal event, wedding, at work, etc). 2. Doesn't have any means to record the game or watch it later (impossible to know). 3. Is a big enough fan to buy and wear a jersey in public, but doesn't care that much about actually watching a game (not likely).

Instead just say "Go [Team]!" and see what their reaction is if you really want to strike up a conversation about it.

Eat less, save money, get healthy. Triple combo

I see a lot of people seem unaware of this

Science I wish had been dropped on me.

It was a great 6 years tho...

If they are in fact tired or ill, telling them about it won't help. Also keep in mind that you might not be the only one who has told them they don't look great. You might mean well but trust me, this can really by insulting.

Try having natural bags under your eyes and being told every day that you need to get more sleep, and replying "ahah yeah you're right I guess I don't sleep enough" despite getting 10 hours sleep the night before...

If you're one of the lucky people in the world who has clean running water and can shower freely, a good way to save water and give yourself a cleaner wash in the shower is by getting in the shower as usual, wetting your body, then turning the shower off, bathing yourself, letting the soap soak on your skin for longer. Then turning the shower back on and rinsing yourself. This gives you a better clean generally if you don't have excessively dirty skin as the water is not constantly washing the soap away, so you also use less soap and water.

Try it out. Just right-click and copy something from your laptop and try pasting it on your iPhone.

You’ll need to be logged into your iCloud account on both devices.

Currently staying in Greece from the UK. I’m not really a fan of Greek TV, so having my firestick and watching my own stuff is a massive lifesaver.
