you'll still be fat though.
the term "life hack" makes me cringe every time.
I like following sites like Lifehacker and How-To-Geek because they provide good alternatives to programs or tips on how to make using a computer even better, but I can agree that there's a lot of weird stuff on there that I think is stupid or borderline insane.
I love cupcakes.

We actually have an annual theatre show here called "Batboy Returns!" or some shit. It sucks ass but yes I can confirm that blacula lives here in the D
[QUOTE=Funktastic Dog;45197862]Maddox is a top level shit disturber. Everything he does is to make the highest number of people hate him.
If you watch all of his videos, you're bound to come up with at least 10 things he says that'll piss you off.[/QUOTE]
I generally agree with most of his stuff.
[QUOTE=JohnFisher89;45203162]I generally agree with most of his stuff.[/QUOTE]
Yeah. Personally I find him inspiring - he's my favorite writer.
There's a lot of people out there that are yelling and trying to exclaim about how screwed up the world is and I think they're usually the guys that care the most. A lot of people can't get past how blunt or how vocal he can be sometimes, though, and when combined with his humor people just write him off as being a bad guy.
I'm not going to say I agree with every single on of his opinions, and I enjoy a fair amount of what he hates, but he's funny, cool, and very hard to argue against when it comes to a lot of things.
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;45197702]same thing if you're eating out of it normally though? why would you need to put it on a plate?[/QUOTE]
Because I find it easier to eat.
That's all.
Now usually when you have a stack of paper that you want straightened, you'd grab the stack and lightly tap the edges against a flat surface. This takes a little while and it's rather annoying if you accidentally bend a sheet or something. I've found a neat little life hack that makes all the paper just fall in line.
You find the sheet that's sticking out furthest, right? Then you put down the stack. Place your fingertip on said sheet and run it across the edge as fast as possible. You'll be done in no time.

I think the point is that most people have no problem eating from boxes. On the other hand, it's presented as an amazing tip which everyone will find great utility in. For them, it's pointless.
It's kind of like saying that the can opener thing is a good one because you happen to have a can opener and not scissors.
[QUOTE=No Party Hats;45196115]eating apples the way most people do wastes 30% of the apple so eat it differently
alternatively, eat my dick. If I want the whole apple, i eat around the core and put the core in my mouth after. There's a lifehack for you.[/QUOTE]
i hope you like cyanide
A life hack on how to dry your hands? I have no words for how stupid this shit is. "DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN SHAKE YOUR HANDS TO REMOVE EXCESS WATER FROM YOUR HANDS TO DRY THEM FASTER?" Wow, SUPER SEEKRET TRIKKS
What's next? A lifehack on how to scratch your back? "TAKE YOUR HAND AND PLACE YOUR NAILS ON YOUR BACK AND RUB THE EDGE OF THE NAILS BACK AND FORTH ON ITCHY SPOT"

Yea, if you like eating from the box shape that's fine. My entire family pours it on a plate, it's just what we do, so I use the container since that's... how I eat.
Edit: haha I got dumbed for this?
[QUOTE=angelangel;45196667]i loathe the term 'life-hack'[/QUOTE]
You know what the term needs?

These life hacks seem pretty good though.

It's even worse when people go out of their way to tell you about some shitty solution to a nonexistent problem they read about on the internet.
"HEY LOOK YOU'RE EATING YOUR APPLE WRONG, WATCH ME EAT THROUGH THE WHOLE THING AND SUCK ON THESE SEEDS!"
Even worse is the banana. Either way works, yet people feel they've been living their lives wrong just because now there's a NEW HIP WAY to open your banana, so the other way just won't work anymore. Fuck you I've been peeling bananas from the stem and making PBJ+Banana sandwiches for lunch nearly everyday, and now this is somehow wrong?
[QUOTE=POLOPOZOZO;45196770]I like his opinion on cheese pizza the most[/QUOTE]
That's my least favorite video of his, easily his weakest. It would be like if he made a video about how under is so superior for toilet paper than over or something. It's a topic so mundane, so inconsequential that his whole act just sorta falls apart because he lays it on way too thick. I don't understand how any sane person would ever care about pizza that much so I have no idea what he's parodying. Every video usually has a target he's aiming but for the pizza one he's just aiming at... I don't know, people who like pizza? So the video as a whole is just kinda boring.
I always feel like people generally toss a good amount of apple out, but I'm not going to pick it out of the garbage, shove them to the ground and rub it in their face yelling "[I]YOU'RE DOING IT [B]WROOOONG!"[/B][/I]
I eat the whole apple just because I don't see the point in wasting food. Am I a bad person now?

[QUOTE=Coyoteze;45204193]i hope you like cyanide[/QUOTE]
Oh please. Firstly, the amount of cyanide in apple seeds is completely harmless. Secondly, unless you chew the seeds, the actually harmful compound stays inside.
People have been eating whole apples for as long as I can remember. Turning an apple on its side just to do that seems rather pointless.
His show [url]http://thebiggestproblemintheuniverse.com/[/url] is pretty great too. For anyone interested. It also shows that Maddox is kind of a normal human being too, sometimes. :v:

I open the bottom of the banana because it's a sure way to not fuck the banana into a smushy mess if the stem is too stiff.
