Its not really dumb but then why not just use a piece of paper and marker where the holes are on it.

Yeah, many of the dumb lifehacks do actually work, but they're still dumb because there usually are significantly better or easier ways of achieving the same result. Like with a paper and pen, as you suggest.

They all got eaten by mammoths and wild panthers back then. It was very tragic.

Hey, want diabetes, but it's taking too much time and effort? Here's a great lifehack! It's like a Paula Deen - Sandra Lee collaboration.



And that jar doesn't really look "almost finished," does it?

Actually, Uncrustables are really loving good; the strawberry ones anyways. The directions say to let them sit at room temp for an hour before eating, so I usually throw one or two in my bag to take to work, and by the time I'm hungry, they're good to go.

It's descriptive because it has no crust. Also, "Goddamn Pathetic" isn't very catchy and would be the name of 90% of the food items on the market if there was truth in advertising.

Nutella is frosting. It's about half sugar, and a third fat.

I honestly think Nutella isn't all that bad if you spread it really thin and not glob it on like a fat idiot like some people do with mayonnaise or cream cheese.

Lifehack: Using less of a condiment means less calories! Who knew!

I like Nutella but I eat it like a normal person and it becomes a problem because my father overeats and eats all the Nutella, most of the time straight out of the jar, over the course of 3-4 days. Therefore I can't buy it because he'll go into a diabetic coma.

For lovely "hacks" there's this:




I've tried this in four different elevators. Never worked.

I did once get the "press your floor and the close door button simultaneously for five seconds" to put the elevator into express mode
For resetting the buttons when some donglord does that, just push the e-stop when the elevator isn't moving, then push the number you want.

Also the express elevator one had a modified execution at the hospital I used to work at, there were ultrasonic sensors in the roof for calling elevators when they moved beds, and when they triggered you also put the elevator in express mode. If you just held your hands under the sensors it worked.
