    Always tell the biggest guy in the gym that he's still too small.

    Sit directly across from the adductor machine and stare at it for 30 minutes.

    for no reason whatsoever, surprise your girl by taking her out to a fancy dinner. let her buy whatever she wants on the menu. be extra affectionate

    but then surprise her again, by commenting that you think its "really hot that the redhead over at the other table is eating that salad, like she probably works out a LOT too, man do you see that guy she's with though? like i'm way better looking than that guy don't you think babe"

    it's super important to eat healthy and stay active- your S.O will love that you reminded her of this with such a teachable moment

    I'm think timing is important here, you either say this after she's eaten her large, rich carby and fat laden dinner and is finishing a decadent dessert...so she can really think about her choices! Or before she orders...then you'll save money!

    Definitely afterwards, she'll be so thankful she'll offer to pay

    If you’re upset at your SO and you want to prove a point, surprise them by not showing up to their next family function. The time alone with their parents and siblings will be much appreciated.

    Icy-Hot is helpful with pulled groin muscles before a run.

    if something good happens to your SO and they are all happy, u need to get them down off their high horse by bringing up past arguments or sad memories. then once they are sad again do something sweet/affectionate to cheer them so they know *you* are the true key to their happiness <3

    😜🤘😂😂

    You can figure out if a fence is boring or if it's electric by peeing on it

    Blammo makes a game to practice that.

    She smiled at you and called you "honey". You should definitely break up your family for that. She wants you for sure.

    if mad at your SO, let them know in subtle ways like leaving them on read for a few hours before responding while posting quotes on your IG like “i’ll be stronger next time” or “she overcame everything meant to destroy her”

    Quit giving away my secrets

    When at the zoo, ignore the fence warnings. Getting close up is much more important, especially at the lion and bear exhibits.

    To save time in the mornings....when you open a fresh box of cereal, pour the milk directly into the box. You’ll save time each and every morning until the box is gone. You’re welcome.

    Speaking of saving time...ignore the tag on your hairdryer. It’s perfectly fine to dry your hair while in the bathtub. Companies have to put those silly warnings on things for imbeciles who drop things easily.

    Your boss doesn't want to know about your problems, they'd rather you just not show up than notify them you will not make it in

    It’s a good idea to heckle the other team at your kids sporting events. Kids today are wimps and hearing the parents of the opposing team boo them will help toughen them up. Heck, Boo your own kids team if they seem to need it.

    Drunk drivers are more likely to survive major collisions than sober operators or passengers. Always loosen up a bit with a few drinks before getting behind the wheel.

    That leftover chocolate from Halloween, don't eat it.

    Instead, give all of it to your dog... all at once.

    They'll Love It !!!

    It’s best to always arrive 5 to 10 minutes late, because it builds an enjoyable sense of tension and surprise and the people waiting for you will always be excited to see you instead of taking you for granted

    A car's rearview mirrors are for losers and those who doubt their own powers of intuition.

    If “everybody’s doing it” it’s definitely a good idea to also do.

    Since 1979, no cases of polio have originated in the United States, chickenpox is a childhood rite of passage, and everyone has had a 'cough' and gotten over it.
    Something.. something.. something.. 'mercury compound'.. something.. autism.
