Learn to cook. It makes you happier and probably healthier.
Fried rice is easy to make and delicious.
When a cop ask you questions, only answer what you are required to answer.

Do not skip going to the dentist.
If you live in the United States, don't talk to cops. You don't know this person. You don't know that the cop isn't a criminal and is now looking for a patsy. Don't discuss your day, don't discuss your travel plans, don't say where you've been. If a cop asks to search anything, don't say yes, don't say no, don't say sure, no thanks. The only thing you say is 'I do not consent to a search', regardless of how it is asked. If a cop asks you anything, say 'I invoke the fifth and I want to speak to a lawyer'. Burghuis v thompkins effect hobbled you miranda rights. And you must verbalize your right to remain silent. You must also verbally request a lawyer in basically eight grade english. No slang. If you say 'I want a lawyer, dawg' state v demesme makes it reasonable for cops to believe you would like a lawyer who is a dog.
I can't imagine browsing the web without Firefox!
Don't just learn to cook. Find at least one dish that you want to get down pat and perfect that dish. Having that one dish you do perfectly is great for date nights.
I'm not saying good pasta is the way to a woman's heart, but it's true that I've never seen a woman in a bad mood with good pasta in her stomach.
When a cop ask you questions, only answer what you are required to answer.
Yep. You have to tell them your name and ID yourself, you have to get out of the car if they tell you to, but you don't have to say shit about what did or didn't happen. Even if you haven't been read your rights there are still some circumstances where the bodycam can be played and used against you in court. It only takes 2 seconds for one random thing to come out of your mouth that you can't take back that can perfectly make the case against you, and put you away.
The cops' job is to catch bad people and put them away. That is fine, you don't gotta be hostile or deliberately make everyone's day unpleasant, but if you're in the crosshairs as a potential bad person don't say a goddamned word until you talk to a lawyer. Anything helpful for your side about you talking to them will still be helpful after you talk to a lawyer.
For as much as I don't agree with him stealing, this guy actually shows a great example of how it works (all sides - the manipulation of dude-just-be-honest and his correct response to it; obeying all the lawful orders but telling them to GFY whenever they ask him questions.)

"I'm not admit to a god damned thing. Prove it."
(Honestly I wouldn't even say that much, because they can maybe play that in court and say see he knew he was guilty. Just, I don't want to talk to you about it until I talk to a lawyer first.)
As someone who hates cooking, it definitely does not make me happier.
This.
Me and my partner have spent the last hour looking through recipe books because I need to figure out how to good a more... diabetes friendly selection of foods.
I can cook a roast dinner no problem, but cooking beans and pulses? No idea.
Don't cheap out on anything that connects you to the ground.
Mine is don't take criticism from someone you wouldn't take advice from
Wear hearing protection. Often. I work and talk to a lot of handyman type people and almost all of them have somewhat poor hearing. Even some close to my age (20's). The one thing in common? No hearing protection.
Even though hand tool woodwork is much quieter I still always wear earplugs. Even when running the vacuum I wear hearing protection. I also take it easy with the music, with a great pair of headphones you don't need to crank it up.
Also wear respirators often when dealing with almost any particulate. If you are working on something that produces a lot of dust, you probably want to wear a respirator. Doesn't matter if it's natural, even wood dust can mess you up. Especially during grinding or sanding.
A lot of shitty people will give you flak, but NEVER let people dictate your safety, specifically when they tell you to use less.
Uh, disagree. Chocolate tastes MUCH better at room temperature.
Well, good quality chocolate tastes much better at room temperature. Shit quality 'chocolate' like some of the big brands here in America does taste better cold. But only because it dulls the horrible taste.
Which brings me to my own little life pro-tip: spend a bit more on decent quality chocolate. It's worth the cost.
Agree, I will not eat Hershey's. It tastes like vomit. No thanks.
Iirc a lot of American chocolate has a preservative in it which was originally used to keep it good during long journeys in transit to stores. Americans got used to the taste of this preservative, so it remains
Said preservative has a similar taste to what gives parmesan and vomit a distinct bite in its taste.
I'm going off memory here so if I'm wrong please correct me.
I got all the life advice I needed from the coach in Teen Wolf in 1985:
Clean the lent trap on the clothes dryer everytime.
Test your smoke detectors at least once a year.
*lint 😜
Our father, who fart in heaven.
I feel there's a story behind this ^^
I hope not yikes.
Drier lint also can be used as kindling, in a pinch.
Thats why i take my drier hiking with me

Read the entire error message, then look it up, before asking for help.
"Your best" looks different every day.
Don't forget to bring a towel.
You must be a hoopy frood.
Never buy food when you're hungry. You'll end up wasting money buying more food than you need, and after all is said and done, you'll feel really fat and be ashamed at yourself.
Drink water and exercise
i.e. stay away from soda and walk.
A powder-type extinguisher should be turned on its head maybe once a year, just to make sure its contents don't separate and gets stuck to the bottom. Sloshing its contents makes sure it stays mixed and healthy.
When having a conversation someone, try paying attention to the other person's body language, tone and the way things are said.
You can pick up a lot of things that way, possibly mood and others.
Let ice cream warm up a bit after taking it out the freezer before eating it. Makes it softer and you taste more as your tongue isn't numbed as much.
Find a chewing gun with xylitol. Chew after meals / snacks sometimes to help keep teeth happy.

Lift weights. It makes your bones stronger, helps you age better. The younger you start, the better, but it's never too late.
Always have some napkins.
Don't put bananas on top of you other fruit. Bananas give off a lot of ethylene gas during their ripening process which quickens the ripening process of other fruits. So seperating your bananas helps to keep your fruit fresh for longer.
Have wet wipes on hand.
Use qtips to clean your nose/sinuses.
If you have dandruff, dry skin, or anything that requires special medicated products, buy a few different brands with different active ingredients and rotate your usage between them so your body doesn’t build immunity.
one skill: be a great listener
My advice is to keep mint chocolates in the freezer. Especially York's.
Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.
