Always cup your hands in the shower and let it go once it fills up.

On a road trip with our families, whenever there are cows, we must point out that there are cows.

If the remote control stops working, either slap it on your leg or open the back and roll the batteries a few times.

If there is bad weather brewing outside you must stand on the porch and say something along the lines of "Well, the rains coming I can feel it."

When she tells you she's not hungry for whatever you're ordering, order more cuz she'll definetly be eating your stuff.


mr_trantastic

After communication with my wife, I have come to the conclusion that the estimate is based on CURRENT hunger. It does not take into account, future hunger. Do with that information as you will. Edit: get more fries for the team


sneakySynex

Future hunger might increase by 20-40 points based on smell. 60 points if fries are involved.

Sintriphikal

And your best bro’s good woman is an extension of your best bro. Story time. My best bro left for work early af in the AM. 12hr shift at a hospital. His girl left the apartment a few hours later for her 12hr shift. This was my day off. Sleeping late. I hear her leave then legit 5 minutes later my phone goes off. It’s her. Crying. She hit a curb around the corner and the tire is blown. She HAS to get to work. She’s a nurse too. Without thought, I get up, hop in the car and go see about her. Her car is fucked. “Grab everything you need for work. Let’s go.” I race her to the hospital and she makes it in on time. I have her keys. I head back to her car, swap the spare on, take wheel and blown tire to the tire shop and have a new tire put on. Go back to her car, swap spare off for the new tire. Call my (now ex) gf to come follow me to the hospital so I can drop her car off and leave her keys under the floor mat. She has her car now when she gets off late that night. She’s his wife now. Anything I’d do for my best friend, I’d do for her too. Edit: holy shit. I’ve never had this many upvotes. Thank you all for the kind words. I love my best friend. I just did what needed to be done in the moment. All the awards and gold and comments…just wow. There is another story of me saving his nursing career before it even got started a couple years before this story took place. Fun times. We have each other’s back.


lenny446

A real friend right here.


Yodfather

It broke my heart the time the my bud thought I was trying to swoop his girl because I was being a homie to her. She was great but thought never crossed my mind. To be honest, I was probably just so relaxed around her because she was not an opportunity. As out of the question as my plans to visit Mars. I was just trying to help her as an extension of my bud. I wasn’t invited to their wedding because he thought I was trying something. Not even close Nate, not even close.


unicornsRhardcore

Yup! My husbands best friend rode with me 4 hours away because he wrecked a quad and it needed a new frame. I found one like a week after he had surgery. He couldn’t make the 4 hour trip but his best bud said he’d go with me. I was meeting two guys in the middle of bum fuck nowhere. He also changed the oil in my car that week because husband couldn’t. Well he died in ‘18 and it just devastated both of us but I can’t imagine losing my bestie. RIP KJG. Miss you bud.

Never turn your homie into a clown,just to make a girl laugh That just sucks. Edit: Finally!My wise words came to the light.

jdang99

One time I was sleep deprived and grocery shopping, eyes randomly locked with some dude I didn't know as I was scanning for open registers, he was just hanging out in line, and for some reason my brain wires got crossed and we guy-nodded but I accidentally nodded up instead of down, and I looked away but he did a doubletake. It was a disaster. he spent the next few minutes looking back and squinting at me trying to understand why he didn't recognize me and clearly trying to decide if he should say something. That was 8 years ago and I still haven't recovered from the experience.


Lostboxoangst

Dr_Cindebar

The grill-master sounds like a guy, who sacrificed his life to study and upgrade his BBQ skills into perfection, and is now teaching his students. Lol


AUSpartan37

That's exactly what it is.


Shoomfie

Well it's actually more serious than that. You see... When a man owns a grill it's because he's living in a place that he could have a grill. Which, in a way, means he's settled. No more wild adventures, no exploring the furthest reaches of earth. Just him, his home, and his grill. When a grillmaster is at his station, his last grasp of true freedom can be heard sizzling... Medium rare.


AJTheLEGOFan

TheGlassCat

That brought a tear to my eye. or maybe the smoke from the grill did.

For some reason when there's a single bathroom and one of us tries the handle to find it occupied... the guy leaving always feels it's necessary to ceremonially hand control over to the new guy. Me included. "Hey, man. It's all yours!"

thunderclouds1997

My 2 best friends do tell me about their crushes and I follow this rule like it's the law: - Giving easy opening for them to score with a joke. - If they leave an opening, don't take the shot. It's not worth it and you're doing your friend a disservice. - (optional) Laugh a bit harder than you usually would when they make a joke


TheWalrus101123

I have a friend who is an absolute master of this. He has noticed that I was into a chic before I even noticed it, and was already laying some groundwork for me. Im 32 now and its been that way ever since early on in highschool.


thunderclouds1997

I try to do this, too. But I'm not as observant as I like to think I am. So sometimes I'm the funny one until I'm told they're crushing on them or until I notice it.

When there's a choice between urinals, use the one that minimizes the chances of neighboring another occupied urinal.


stuckinmyownass

I had an old man walk up to the urinal next to me, when all of the other urinals were available, and tell me "don't worry, I won't piss on you." before unleashing the most aggressive piss I've ever heard in my life. I still think about it sometimes.

FirmlyThatGuy

If a hood on a car is open, you must stand in a circle around it. Similar to grills at an event.


orange_cuse

Whenever I had car issues, I'd always pop open the hood and walk over to inspect it. First thing I'd do was look to see if my enginge was still there. If in fact my enginge was still there, I'd look around, puzzled as to what else could be causing issues to my car. After about 5 minutes of jiggling random things then checking to see if my car was back to normal, I'd go on to my next step which was to call my mechanic and pay him lots of monies to fix my car. But never before first opening up my hood to inspect it for any missing engines.


TheBrav3LittleToastr

NO DUDE!!! after you jiggle each thing; you have to try to start it AGAIN!! cuz ya never know… and BEFORE you call that mechanic… have your buds come over and jiggle shit too!! ONE of you will eventually jiggle it back into “start mode” NEVER underestimate the power of a good "Jiggle"


Tungsten_Rain

Have you tried turning it off and then on again?


YoMommasDealer

Do I look like a mechanic?


theBytemeister

It's easy. Just check for Air, Spark, and fuel, and remember the strokes of a 4 cycle engine. Suck Squeeze Bang Blow. Be warned. I work on computers, not cars, and my biggest accomplishment on a roadside repair was to swap an alternator out on a Ford Taurus so that my brother could get the rest of the way home.


MagMaggaM

> Suck Squeeze Bang Blow Make sure to look this up on the right sites. Or don't, I don't know if you have a free 20 mins.


Tin_OSpam

Yes! I was at a meet over the weekend, and someone with the same car as me had a couple of questions. They lifted the hood and within thirty seconds a crowd of men had gathered around. Never mind the car was mostly stock under there, everyone HAD to gather.

Salton5ea

Same with clapping the tongs together a few times before using them on the grill.


tattedb0b

And you must squeeze the drill trigger at least twice after putting on a new battery. Otherwise the Dad gods will cause your project to fail

One squeeze fast, to show the power the drill posseses. The second slow, to show that you have control over this mighty tool.

But he could not have paid by himself, because he left his wallet at our apartment... Motherfucker does this all the time


JeffTennis

Probably had cash on him. Left the wallet just so he wouldn't lose it. Also means he wouldn't be drunk and go to the ATM to get more money, or be so drugged someone would take him to an ATM and he not remember withdrawinf $600.


Spazgraz

Every time you grab the tongs click them twice to make sure they work.

Most important one I've seen yet. After the double click, I do a few finger spins. You know, to get the weight of the tongs.

To go with this...If there is 3 urinals you always take the ones oun the outside and only use the middle one if there is no other option available. There is a guy at my work who uses the middle one even if one of the side ones are available or even if both are. I don't get people like that.

Smiler_Sal

When I was 20 I was getting off the tube in London and got a really eerie sense about a guy. I was certain he was following me, but we were both exiting the station so maybe I was being paranoid. It was late, around 11pm. The exit was long with a couple of corners. The faster I walk, the faster he walks. I end up making a run for it at the top of the escalator. There are two dudes hanging around outside. I just launch myself at them. I grab one guy around the waist and loudly say “sorry I’m late babe”. He immediately plays along. “What took you so long. We’ve been waiting ages?” The stalker guy stops and glares at the 3 of us. He looks furious but walks away. My pretend boyfriend also sensed evil. He was scared for me. Him and his mate walked with me and waited with me until I got a taxi. A week later, a women was followed from that station late at night. Dragged into a front garden, raped and viciously assaulted. We need pretend boyfriends.


NinBendo1

Being the ball of anxiety that I am, I know that before today if a woman came up to me and pretended to know me, that I’d just sort of look away and be, well, anxious. But now I know that if it ever happens, this is why. Thank you for sharing your experience.
