What’s the worst advice you’ve ever come across online? Or the best (depending on who you’re asking!) Here are 10 pieces of so-called wisdom from the internet that you should (probably) steer clear of:
- Want to know if your date likes you? Spill wine on their shirt. If they say “This is my favorite shirt!,” you’ll know they dressed their best for you.
- If you often lose your keys, leave a tag with your physical address attached to them so someone will know where to return them.
- Want to lose weight fast? Get stranded in a desert; the extreme heat and lack of food will make your body use its own fat as a resource to function.
- If you are going to get cremated, have some popcorn seeds placed in your pockets for fun. Hate mosquitos? Keep large containers filled with still water around your house. The mozzies will try to drink from them and drown.
- Use large words even if you’re not exactly sure what they mean. It will make you sound more photosynthesis.
- If you drop your phone two inches from the ground and add another two inches each day, in about a month your phone will have built up the endurance to withstand drops from your hands.
- Get instant service at a restaurant by smashing a dish on the floor.
- Peeing in your drinks before putting them in the work fridge is a good way to prevent theft.
- Too cold in the house? Set it on fire.
- Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you’ll be a mile away.
