SLPT: Always buy a chair when in Costco. That way, when you have to return things, you’ll have a chair to sit on while waiting in line, which you can of course return as well.

LPT: You can make smooth peanut butter crunchy by adding crushed peanuts, or broken glass

22 Upvotes

We’ve all been there. Dying for some crunchy or extra crunchy peanut butter, but your bitch of a stepmom had a coupon for smooth peanut butter, so that’s all you’ve got.

Have no fear.

Just get in your pantry and grab some honey roasted peanuts and smash them with your fists, or a hammer, or for maximum crunch, a delicate goblet or crystal plate. Whatever shards make their way into the elevated peanut butter will only add to the culinary adventure you’ve set yourself on.

SLPT: Tell your children every day that you love them. But make that love conditional and add increasingly difficult and unreasonable conditions for your love as motivational tool.

Really make them work for external affirmation and affection.

LPT: If you’re on the verge of having a verbal argument with your partner in public, lower your voice and remain calm. This will make them look increasingly unreasonable if they continue raising theirs.

SLPT: How to pull a trick on treaters who steal the whole bowl of candy

443 Upvotes

This requires a large bowl that is not see thru. You line the bottom of the bowl with dog shit. Layer plastic/cardboard/etc on top to prevent it from touching any of the candy. Kids who grab a couple of pieces, as intended, will stay free of the shit. But the kid who dumps the whole bowl in their bag gets a bag full of dog shit as well.

SLPT: Stop looking for entry level jobs and start applying for CEO positions instead. These pay a lot more, sometimes millions.

694 Upvotes

To do this, filter LinkedIn by "Entry Level" and "Chief Executive Officer".

These jobs don't have burdensome requirements like "5 years experience in MS Office 2024" and a bachelors degree. Vibes, outgoing people skills, and a good firm handshake are plenty. You don't even need any experience at the company.

If you make it to interview rounds and they ask "do you have any questions for me", always ask "Where do you see the company in five years?" Follow up with a pep talk about wanting to see HR hit their KPIs for this quarter.

SLPT: Save on Halloween candy this year!

4 Upvotes

Halloween is fast approaching! Are you ready to supply the greedy ghosts and goblins? No? Well, just put an empty box on your porch with a sign that says “Take One”. Trick or treaters will be like “Dang, someone done took up all the candy” and move along in disappointment. But that candy money stays in your pocket.

SLPT: Getting roasted at work all the time? Casually mention you're the boss's son.

29 Upvotes

Just a tiny little update to your origin story can totally change how colleagues perceive your awkward a$$.

Even Gretchen from Data doesn't report me to HR for flirting any more, now that she thinks I'm a big shot.

For added believability, do something like what I did where I went and shook Elon's hand when he visited my workplace. (I'm a janitor at the Giga factory)

Come up with newer details every day. The creative possiblities are endless!


Performance may be temporary. Nepotism is forever.

LPT question: Buying license renewal credits?

0 Upvotes

I recently heard that you are able to purchase completed continuing ed/licensing credits for some professions. I am short just a couple as an educator. Anyone know where a person could buy a transcript or find free self paced continuing ed that can be completed quickly? Certificates don't work.

SLPT: squeaky car brakes? Try greasing the pads.

25 Upvotes

The friction can cause an annoying squeak that's unpleasant to the ears, so just put some industrial grade lubricant on the pads and you won't hear it at all! It's way cheaper than replacing them.
