To just smile, context, I was really depressed. Gee thanks for the dumb advice, smiling doesn’t help depression at all.

My mom used to say that to me. Smile and no one will know. Who wants to answer strangers questions. What's the matter little girl?

Here’s some sh**ty advice. “That men are stupid and useless.”

First off we aren’t useless. Second, why the f**k do you think that were all stupid. Third, we work our asses off to provide and care for the family. Fourth, we aren’t all bad and we do care. Fifth, 90% of the time we ain’t the problem. Finally, being a man is ok as long as it isn’t toxic.
Idc if I get downvoted, I’m doing what the post is titled.

If there is an emergency at school, like a school shooting or real life fire, you can’t be in your phone. It must be in your bag. You text your parents and say”check the school website im gonna die” that’s all ur supposed to do. He’s my opinion. FCK that SHT. No way. I’m calling my parents and getting the hell outta there. That’s stupid.

"When you meet the right person, it won't matter." I still have trouble fathoming the utter stupidity of this. It will be the right person BECAUSE it matters.

If this means in a relationship it does matter I'm christian and a friend of mine once said "when I was younger I had a crush on someone and then a month later my brother told me 'you know he's gay right'"

"Just don't react to bullies, they will go away if you don't react." While this is true to some degree, reacting will *sometimes* make them learn a lesson and quit doing it, confronting bullies works sometimes.

I have done so much research on this, being a 12 year old and studying phycology from real textbooks, articles, my own theories and experiences, and people of all ages point of view. This wont work almost 90% of the time. Many people tend to bully to get attention from somebody, ignoring them is going to make them try harder to get attention meaning they will either keep going or even do worse things, you need to show them that the attention they will get by bullying is negative, so you should tell someone who has control over their consequences and will make the consequence a certain amount depending on what's necessary and fair (legal guardian, teacher, principal, administrator, etc) but also dont handle it yourself, because that makes the consequence also negative for you.

Someone told me to go and fix that birdhouse out back because guests where coming over and it’s a mess. Then they brought me a warped ladder. I promptly and stupidly fell off a 6 meter high tree for the 4538th time in my life.

I'm sure alot of women, especially 30+ that don't have or want kids can relate to unsolicited opinions on their uterus. I don't want kids, and have been asked 'why' or 'you should reconsider' etc. The dumbest piece of advice about this issue ice received from a regular customers at the restaurant I used to work at was "You should have a child even if you don't want one now because you will regret it". I think that isn't a good reason to get pregnant because on the off chance I'll regret it later on. 🙄

It doesn’t matter what you have a degree in, you can get a good job as long as you have a 4 year degree. B*llsh*t. What a waste of my money and time.

"If your phone starts buzzing in the middle of class, ignore it."

Absolutely not, the only people who's notifications go through while I'm at school are my parents and best friend, neither of whom would call me for no reason. There's literally no way I'm not going to pick it up and make sure they're okay.

One time my dad called at school. This was 2003. He NEVER calls me and my phone rang LOUD in the middle of my social studies class. My teacher looked at Mr like "really????" And I was like "I'm sorry it's my dad there must be something really wrong!!" And I answered it. Regretfully. He started SCREAMING at me that the neighbors called and said I went up the road going 75 mph. I ended up hanging up on him but everyone heard it was f*****g mortifying. Then he kept calling back over and over and I was so flustered it took like 2 minutes to silence my Nokia. Our road is gravel and 15 mph, our neighbors house is 50 feet away and I drove a chrysler cirrus so really dad was I really going 75 mph?

you should go to college no matter what.

My career choice doesnt require college, being a stand-up comeidan. sure other arts do, but this doesnt, most comics do have college degrees. but I can pass with a high school degree or GED. not everyone goes to college that has a job, stop telling me this. I still have 5-6 1/2 years to figure this out. im only 12.
