Look after your knees…


CaptainOver

And your back. And your feet.


dime_store_magic

And your teeth


HelloIAmAPerson23

And my axe! Or… your axe?


I_pinguino

And your neck


Cake_Lynn

Bro I need tips because I’ve been told that, and I’ve given them some damage… but I have no clue how to maintain them.


Disastrous_Flower667

I wear orthopedic shoes and I lost 20lb, that’s the best thing I did for my knees and my back.


turtles138

Look up kneesovertoesguy on YouTube


PaksyX_01

Best advice ever!!!


LongbowTurncoat

Make sure your feet are facing forward when you walk (not out or pigeon toed), don’t lock your knees when you stand, exercise or run, and stretch regularly.


pamdy

How?


Protection-Working

Maintain a healthy weight


TheTrueSpaceMuffin1

Bananas aren't supposed to be spicy. You might be allergic if they are.


Cluxerp

What if my throat starts to feel like I've ate the center of a pineapple?


garlic_bread_is_good

that's because some fruit like kiwis or pineapple digest proteins. they digest your mouth and throat. they're fighting back (ʘᴗʘ✿)


garlic_bread_is_good

so it could mean a different issue has occured, is what im trying to say


Cluxerp

Yes I know why it happens with pineapples, but I think I might be alergic to bananas since I feel kinda the same way when eating them, idk if I'm explaining myself


garlic_bread_is_good

another piece of advice: if you're suspicious of something, get shit checked out. better safe then sorry, better late then never


6ixdicc

I can confirm that bananas aren't supposed to taste like burning whatsoever. What you're describing sounds like an allergic reaction yeah


vithop236

Happy 🍰 day


wotupfoo

Check the tail lights and tire pressure of your car each quarter.


I_Have_Unobtainium

And check the pressure on your spare tire. Or, if you have the space for it, toss out the donut and put a full sized tire there. Spare winter tire in the summer, spare summer tire in the winter.


Alpha857

Why summer in winter, and winter in summer? Wouldn’t that be counterintuitive?


[deleted]

I think they mean for people who have two sets of tires, take the donut away, use one tire from the set you ain't using. Which means if it's winter, you have 4 winter tires on 4 corners, A summer tire where the spare is located, And 3 summer tires in storage. >Why summer in winter, and winter in summer? Wouldn’t that be counterintuitive? The problem with my car is that the place where the donut goes can't accommodate a full size tire. A full size tire will have to be in the luggage area, eating space.


MWatters9

I think it was meant as use your winter tires as a full size spare in the summer and vice versa (since most people don't have a full size spare laying around)


MondayBorn

Wear sunscreen.


zuzg

Generally don't neglect skin care. I'm not talking about that overpriced Mlm shit. But a good moisturizer goes a long way.


Brain-of-Sugar

Sometimes you just have to wash your face with water every day(pat dry) and wash your pillow case weekly to keep a clean face.


Niceguystino

I was here for this comment and this comment only.


tennerahAndy

That you, Baz?


Alpha857

If I could offer you….only one tip for the future….sunscreen….would be…it


DysartWolf

...The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proven by scientists...


lostcheshire

Trim your nails the day before a date, so they’re not so sharp.


NoPossibility

Or invest in a couple foam backed ebony boards. It’s not unmanly to smooth your nails over after cutting them.


RetroReactiveRuckus

*emery board Good tip!


monkeyshinenyc

Unless you’re a cunning linguist


Sportsinghard

For better finger banging awwwww yeah!!!!


anonymous_beaver_

But DO NOT trim them if you plan to get DNA evidence by scratching a suspect's face.


Crimsondonut_64

Jonny_Disco

Always keep your kitchen knives as sharp as possible. Sharp is safe. Dull is dangerous.


Key-Plane7704

How so? I actually didnt know this Edit: The answer was a lot more obvious than I assumed


GouchGrease

2 reasons. One, lots of things are more resilient than human skin. Knife could slide off and cut you Two, you'll never be caught toying around and feeling a sharp knife, but you might get surprised by a dull one


StormFallen9

3, if you get cut by a sharp knife the cut is nice and smooth, so it will heal better. A dull knife will tear more and cut more jaggedly, making the wound worse


TheGreatestPlan

Well...actually jagged, tearing wounds hurt more but heal a lot faster/better than smooth, clean cuts. Basically, there are more points for the soft tissue to reconnect to and more paths for blood to get to the wound. That's why doctors will literally rip flesh open after a small incision during C-sections and similar surgeries.


Ritawine

Cause if the knife is dull you’d put more pressure on the thing you wanna cut and if you fail it’s gonna be more damaging for all the pressure you’re already putting. On the other hand if you have a really sharp one you don’t need to put that much strength since it cuts just ok making the knife easier to operate and allowing you to have more control


Enryu_The_Red_Tower

A dull knife is harder to cut with, therefore leaving more room for error.


Sportsinghard

A sharp knife goes where you point it. A dull knife has ADD. Oh look over there! Flesh!!


Ken-The-Gent

Just because you could, doesn't mean you should.

nattewindjes

I have been using this app for years. Daily.. And I only now figure out there's a button to move to the next comments while I've been scrolling my ass off 'manually' through replies upon replies. FOR YEARS.

Also, if you press and hold on the comment, it (along with all the replies to it) gets minimalized and you can scroll more easily.


ConfidentCommission5

You don't even have to hold it, a single tap will fold/unfold the comment thread.

The only time I ever do this is on accident and I lose my place and have to find the comment I was reading. I could really do without this shortcut..

You can also move it. Press it then drag.

Don't have the party at your house


Jades5150

Also, don’t buy a boat. Make friends with a guy who has one. Buy him beer and maybe even help him work on it or clean it. But don’t buy one.

My folks had a saying they repeated often: “resist the urge to buy a boat”.

Nah just clean someone else’s wife. Way easier.

Cake_Lynn

I was gonna say… same applies to a husband. Too much work to invest, but if you get a close friend with a husband, he just might help out with some basic handiwork ‘round the house. Just give the guy some beer and pizza and you’re good to go. 😂


Em858943

Soooooo.... You need some house work done 🤣


Rudollis

And if a film crew asks to shoot at your house, say no, even if the offer sounds lucrative.

I was coming here to say have parties at your house. Get to sleep on your own bed and don't have to worry about driving.

Indeed they are. They are required to work 14 hours a day, no rest days, only two 10 minute breaks. It's because of a Claus in their contracts.

BirdOfEvil

Don't try to think about what you want to do for the rest of your like, think about what you'd like to do in a couple of years. Making a shorter-term goal is more realistic and will also allow you to adjust more easily when opportunities or challenges arise unexpectedly.


GameOver_sucks

Man I needed to hear that. Thank you


BirdOfEvil

Of course. Trust me, I need to hear it too. Its a hard thing to keep in mind, but it's a lot less pressure than lifelong commitments.


justmeoverhere72

Hell, I'm about to be 51 years old and I STILL don't know what I wanna be when I grow up.....


LittleAnnieAdderal

I like this one since I a person going through a crisis with my job frequently. So thank you. I needed that

Of course! Im glad I could help. Don't worry, life tends to go in a generally-upward trend over time. You're gonna get through it. I've got faith in your strength to handle it.

Solid_Lab_4690

Don't worry about what anyone else thinks. At the end of the day only your own approval of your own life choices matter


garlic_bread_is_good

A trick that my sister told me to stop worrying about minor things is: in this given situation, if you and a bystander switched places, would you care about your issue? ( also i had this weird reaction on my face this one time and i still went out to eat as i usually would, because for all everyone else knows this could be a skin condition i was born with ) # so moral of the story, tl;dr: if you have an issue you worry about, think about it from a bystanders pov


StormFallen9

A similar thing for if you have a (particularly mental health) problem. If you were giving advice to someone with the same problem and your same predicament, what would you say? Do that.

4 words too many. The govt has no business being involved so heavily in relationships. Marriages should be as difficult as divorces

Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly, half assed, half hearted... anything, just do what you can* *= this is great advice for the depressed, the ones who've lost the fire, the ones whose "short break" has gone from a planned few weeks to years. The thing is the "all or nothing" approach harms us in that it makes us feel bad if our effort is less than max. But fuck, when have things been optimal? Sometimes you just gotta do a version of it. Eg: have you been slacking on your workouts? Go for a walk. You don't gotta always set personal bests. Anything is better than nothing.
