Life tips you NEED to know from Reddit - r/AskReddit

If you are stuck in a rip swim parallel to shore to get out but also flip on your back to save energy. Multiple rips can and will occur. Don't panic. If you take any into your mouth or nose swallow to clear your airway. When you are back on land swish your mouth with clean water (DO NOT DRINK) this will trigger the gag reflex and even if water got into your lungs the body will try to push it out. Second drowning or re-drowning can occur 6-48 hrs after a water incidents. ALWAYS get checked out at a hospital 🏥 Check out your local firestation/ colleges for CPR classes, most are free and only take a few weeks.

12:04 When this gets to a real person, your resume better be short. I always find it searching for words. Alternatively, I think more highly of the person for doing it and so maybe it’s not the worst thing.

If you are stressed out when going to bed, make a little to-do list for tomorrow. It takes already a lot off the load and clears your mind, to be able to rest.

13:18 the wet paper towel cold drink trick is more like 20 minutes in the freezer, as 5 minutes isn’t enough time

This particular AI voice is just awful.

Keep this and live it please and believe I. Yahusha (Jesus) always

Use chop stick for eating doritis 😱

Great advice.

First and foremost, DO NOT TRUST AMERICA OR HAVE PRIDE IN IT. Pride is something given to something that you can generally be happy for. Right now? America is a disappointment.

Pride is something earned, not demanded. I’m not proud of America, nor my own accomplishments. That’s because I have to do something that generally affects people in a positive manner to be proud of it, like if I worked with St Jude Children’s Research Hospital to help set up hospitals or something.

But even so, PRIDE IS AN ADVERSARY. It’ll destroy you if you define your life by it. You can’t imagine the trauma people probably felt after spending their entire childhoods pledging their allegiance to the flag of America every single morning only to be betrayed when they saw America dip into fascism and anti-human rhetoric.

Second, Google “The Seven Heavenly Virtues”. It’ll help.

2:24 during my practical test to get my driver's license, I overlooked a STOP sign. Drove onto into the intersection without stopping as no traffic came. Heard disappointed sighs from the backseat. I was made to drive a loop and came to the same spot and saw the sign.
"I know what I did wrong. I overlooked the STOP sign. But now I see it and will act accordingly." Got my license that day. Close call. Usually failworthy where I live.

I once learned how to drunkenly do percentages while playing UFC3 to troll people after dog walking them. I distinctly remember seeing the number of punches thrown vs the number of punches landed and immediately knowing the percentage. I’m currently 2 years sober and have no clue how I did it or how I even taught myself lol 😂 the human mind is a fascinating machine 😅❤

coma and period - thanks

When you grocery shop use the kids safety seat in grocery cart to buckle kiddie seat strap of your cart to your handbag. I did this and guy tried to grab my purse to steal and started to run only to have the entire cart go with him and trip him up so he landed under my cart...... he didn't make it more then 3ft....lol... I got my purse back😊

24:07 here in Australia, you can get anreloadable Australia post Mastercard, only one per person, you can load it with as much as you need, it’s great for internet purchases, cause even if you get scammed, you only loose what’s on the card, and they can’t access any of your other accounts, because they’re not connected

17:47 here in Australia, it’s the RAA ( i dont know all the state specific names) but I do a lot of country driving, and if stuff happens 2 hours or more from anyplace, it’s a godsend…you might have to wait the 2 hours or more, because you know, time and distance, but it’s worth it even if you only need it once out here.
PS I have basic mechanic skills, so there has to be somethin* really wrong, last time it was a blown gearbox, had country coverage, so no towing fees, a hotel stay( which I didn’t need) saved me upwards of $2000 on just those .

10:44 in the same vein, when you’re hanging your underwear especially, hang all of person As on one side, person Bs on another, and pair up socks before hanging up. This means even a little one can retrieve their own washing without it being a chore.

To not use Reddit.

16:55 The uNDO CAPS THING DOESN'T WORK AAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

22:51 no, you put toilet paper on the toilet seat. It also warms it up for home

20:45 Jesus is the best example

If you don't want to be rude but you also want to end the conversation at a party? Apologize and check your phone, saying your expecting a call and set a timer for x amount of time you can handle? Then get exited and pick up the phone. Then just gesture good bye & walking away. ( since he/she knows you're expecting it)

0:54 if someone is talking your ear off? Pretend you just realized, how long you've been talking, and go "oh! I just realized how long we've been talking. I just got lost in our conversation. lm sorry for talking your ear off. Plus I have to get going anyway." ( its a great way to stop the conversation, compliments them and gives you an out without insulting them) But it doesn't work in all situations.. can't really do that with your wife or at a party

My dad has gotten AAA for all of us kids every year for Christmas since we started driving. He is a retired car dealer and a protective dad. It’s his way of helping wherever we are. Saved my butt more than a dozen times over the years too!

If you decide not to buy something, put that money into a savings or investment account.

If you accidentally walk into the wrong room or area in public, stop, look around in confusion, pull out your phone and pretend to be reading something, then turn around and walk back out. You’ll never embarrass yourself like that again.

Your dog or cat ran away from home?
Hang something outside that smells of you and the pet.
They have a very good sense of smell and should find their way back home quickly

Have a "guest box" where you collect all their things during their visit,
Instead of them spreading their stuff all over your home and then accidentally forgetting something


Use a hair clip for wrapped cables, they won't tangle and stay tidy the entire time

If you're someone who often has guests who sleep over, have spare tooth brushes
And if needed write their name on the toothbrush

Have a spare set of clothes in a different size in case your guest needs it .
(Usually Large for men, small for ladies)

Buy a travel biget and use it at home. You don't have to mess with the plumbing, it's affordable ,
you can even use warm water and liquid shower gel to feel extra clean and comfortable.

If you're really cold and need to warm up quickly,
Place a hot water bottle between your thighs. You will warm up faster.
If you don't have a hot water bottle, use a plastic bottle and hot water from the tap instead
NEVER use boiling water!

If you can't figure out what to get your partner as a gift,
Secretly look at their Amazon wish list

7:43 U hv to be rich for this one "even $5-10" thats food money

I do the 1st one with gift cards, you dont need any money on them

If you wake up in bed and still feel really tired, wiggle your toes/feet intensely while taking deep breaths

Can't cope with AI commentaries? Read the transcript instead 😆

How to wear a towel so it actually stays up over boobs instead of falling off all the time 😂

Tongue scraper - it's a game changer

14:00 thank you 🙏🏻

19:00 had me like: " huh excuse me sir!? What the actual f*ck!?"

If you carry or ccw a snub, J frame type DA revolver: .38spl or .357magnum .... 5 or 6 shot speed strip- 2, you can quickly secure them in a Altoids mint tin. It also keeps lint, grit off your defense .38spl rounds.

1:23 I tried this once but the other person also did the same.
This was 6 years ago last month.
We're still standing in place, 7.548 feet apart.
Time has lost all meaning.
Send help.
We have 4 children now, all of whom are also locked in place with this same advice.

5:00 forgot to say u hv to be rich

3:50 how tf do u swim for 20 mins?

Yes, absolutely don't run Red lights just to gain time, it only takes a few extra minutes anyway. And in the same topic, if coming to a Yellow light and there's a tailgating vehicle behind you, always run the yellow even though it is turning red. Because that driver behind might not have enough time to stop if you stop fast and collides with you, Avoid accident.

I did not expect the coconut one at the end 💀

Use the bacon grease for cooking eggs, or meatballs,ect.
