Also chewing large amounts of gum will increase your chances of cavities due to the large amounts of sugar that dissolve out of the gum and into your saliva, coating your teeth. You don't want to do that.
A better option would be to chew on something inert, like rubber.
[QUOTE=Telepethi;27273649]Aspartame is carcinogenic.[/QUOTE]
Oh hello Wikipedia.
[quote]Reviews have found no association between aspartame and cancer. These reviews have looked at numerous carcinogenicity studies in animals, epidemiologic studies in humans, as well as in vitro genotoxicity studies. These studies have found no significant evidence that aspartame causes cancer in animals, damages the genome, or causes cancer in humans at doses currently used.[4][47][49] This position is supported by multiple regulatory agencies like the FDA[56] and EFSA as well as scientific bodies such as the National Cancer Institute.[55][/quote]
Wikipedia is not always an accurate source for information. Aspartame [i]has[/i] been linked to carcinogenic effects regardless of what the wiki article states.
[url]http://ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=32904[/url]
Read. It's the first result from a google search of "Is aspartame carcinogenic". The top 3 results are in fact positive results for aspartame being carcinogenic.
Do more research than just popping into Wikipedia

Hitting someone where the cartilage meets the bone on the nose with the knife end of your hand causes temporarily (will cut the optic nerve if hard enough) blindness, and can kill people.

Has anyone got a lifehack for waking up? I dont have a coffee machine next to my bed..
Sleep on the floor.
[QUOTE=Murkrow;27277929]Sleep on the floor.[/QUOTE]
I slept on the floor.
My whole life is transformed, I now have abs, no acne or anything. I have millions of dollars and I own several boats and cars. Thanks for the tip!
This thread is greatsauce! I have a few I'd like to contribute; just stuff of my own. Its nothing really exceptional and I'm sure most of you probably know this stuff, but anyway...
- Plastic bread ties make decent guitar picks if you're in a bind.
- If you can use a screwdriver and read, then you can build your own computer. Period.
- Don't throw away old broken computers, printers, monitors, TVs, ect. Not only is it harmful to the environment and in some places illegal, but many big stores like Best Buy and Fry's or charity organizations like Goodwill and Salvation Army will take these devices free of charge. They will often offer you gift vouchers or in the case of charities, tax receipts and discount coupons. Salvation Army will even come to your home to pick up the items for free in most states!
- If you have any doubts about something before purchasing it, as to whether its the right one, or whether you can afford it... DO NOT BUY IT. Take at least 72 hours and sit on it.
- Before making a purchase, always be informed! Information by way or reading or asking questions is always free and will help you make the best decision. Know what you are buying, what your alternatives are, the advantages and disadvantages of each choice, the best prices, and the most cost effective and simple way to acquire the item in question (store pick-up, online, ect.). Patience + Research > Impulse buying. This is especially true with cars. R-E-S-E-A-R-C-H.
- When planning to purchase a used vehicle, always display confidence. Know what you want, what you want to spend, and the in's and out's of the models of cars you are interested in. Never tell a salesman what you have to spend or how much you want to spend and NEVER tell them that you need a car in a hurry. They will take advantage of every insecurity including your urgency to have a vehicle. Don't ever fall for that nice guy crap and know that they will tell you every car you look at is amazing, a great find, rare in this condition, only one like it in the lot, ect. ect. ect... they are salesman, its their job. Say no in confidence if you're not interested in a deal and repeat with a "I said, no thank you."
- After changing strings on your guitar, make sure to break each one in by either strumming like a mofo or pulling one each one semi-firmly until they are knocked out of tune. Then re-tune the strings and repeat this about 5 more times. This will ensure they stay in tune longer and will result in better sound right away.
- Don't ever use window cleaners on a monitor or TV (duh) and do not use tap water. Tap water contains hard minerals that can damage the screen; use distilled water instead. Distilled water can be bought for .75 cents to $1.00 at most major grocery chains (I found some at walmart for 50 cents a gallon!).
- If you are pulled over and an officer wants to search your vehicle, refuse politely. Say "No sir, I do not grant you permission to perform a search". Most of the time, surprisingly enough, they will let you go. You shouldn't have anything to hide anyway, right? :P
- Guys, one of the most wonderful, romantic, and charming things you can do for a lady is OPEN THE DOOR FOR THEM. This might seem dreadfully obvious to some of you and probably dreadfully old-fashioned to some of you, but do it. I swear to god, trust me. Always help her sit and offer your coat too. Small polite gestures go a long way.
- Girls, don't get too upset if a guy glances at another woman. Most of the time, we don't even know we're doing it. It doesn't mean we're going to cheat or are even thinking about anything remotely sexual, its just a genetic thing, we promise.
- If you're learning to play the guitar, learn scales. They are boring, robotic, hard, and mind numbing, but they do help. A LOT.
- If your check engine light comes on, don't go to a mechanic right away (unless the car is new or still under warranty, then go to the manufacturer). Visit a NAPA, Schucks or any other major or local auto parts store. They will often be able to diagnose the problem for free. Most of the time its as simple as needing a new gas cap (especially if everything seems to be fine) and they want you to buy the parts from them. Even if you don't buy the parts, it will save you up to a hundred bucks.
Thats it for now guys, if I think of anymore I'll post em. This is just stuff that I've learned in my short time on Earth. Peace.
Walk out of the room when waiting for something, it will happen :byodood:
I can now take on life.
Thanks facepunch!

You guys should really buy or "lend" *cough* a copy of the eBook titled: The 4 Hour Body
It's full of physical "body hacks", on how to achieve certain goals the fastest, most efficient and least time consuming way.
I.E. gaining 30 pounds of muscles in 28 days, cutting off pounds of fat in a month, holding your breath 5 minutes, increasing your running distance from 5km to 50km in 2 weeks, etc.
thepiratebay usually "lends" such books. It's an interesting read and worth "borrowing".

Just put one hand about halfway down the shirt, then use the other hand to hold the 'shoulder area ' of the shirt. ( the part in between collar and sleeve ), make they they are in a straight line.
next fold the shirt in half by moving your hand holding the shoulder area to the bottom of the shirt and grab both parts in your hand., ensure it is half by moving the other hand.
By now your arms are crossed. uncross them and by flipping out the shirt, BAM you can just lay it down to fold it
