    To dovetail on what Ali said about Christmas lights....don’t be so ocd thinking you need to water your real tree every day. They HAVE to tell us that. Cuz “someone once burned their house down blah blah”. Chances of that happening are extremely small. Plus, finding needles in your carpet for months to come is the gift that keeps on giving. Christmas in July anyone?!

    Just hold your breath when you're lifting heavy. It's sure to help you finish that set.

    If you are fed up of those e-mails write back insisting they unsubscribe you - your boss will totally understand.

    Thanksgiving is a free day of eating. It does not count. The Pilgrims didn't log anything, so why should you?

    How could this be bad advice when so many people (me included) successfully follow it every year?

    Don't forget to lift with your back... with a jerking, twisting motion.

    if she breaks up with you- just start dating her nail tech. she'll appreciate the fact you're moving on, especially with someone she trusts.

    ...what if her nail tech is her sister? That would be *better* right, cause of the whole trust thing?

    that's a double win imho.
    just because someday you could end up getting her one of those "world's greatest aunt" t-shirts and people always like receiving fun gifts.

    If you are new to a message board, especially one involving humor, don't bother reading the previous posts.

    You'll save all kinds of time for better stuff like selfies, and when you post the same joke someone already posted, it will bring a sense of nostalgia to the original poster(s)

    It is the time of year you may meet new people. You were given multiple senses to get through life better, when meeting someone for the first time whist shaking them by the hand give them a lick across them cheek and then sniff their butt to give yourself full picture before deciding if they are safe to know or not.

    Get your relatives speaking to eachother again by sending them a heartfelt Christmas card with a picture of you and a child that nobody knows.

    Brilliant.
