Contrary to what the internet would have you believe, some people actually enjoy their job, and their coworkers. I'm one of them. I plan to retire in a few years, just because I don't want to work 40 hours per week forever, but if they'll let me work part time I'll do it indefinitely.

But this is not just women, everyone does this, we don't argue with strangers so much as we do with those we love. We care allot about what our loved ones think and what they think about us, we don't care so much what strangers think. There is no-one on earth who makes me more annoyed than my wife, because she has a direct connection to my heart, the slightest slur from her feels a hundred times worse than from some stranger.

The study of 4,165 participants aged 60 years and older in China reveals that people who consumed fish at least “twice a week” compared to “never eat” over the past two years have a significantly reduced risk of mortality (death from any cause) by 42%.

Not "fish", it's only fat sea fish that does the trick. Good luck finding one that's not endangered by overfishing or loaded with heavy metals (not the music ones). You could also just take omega 3 oil supplements.

Among the metrics the researchers examined were changes in blood levels of glucose and insulin. The data showed that even a five-minute walk after eating a meal had a measurable effect on moderating blood sugar levels. The beneficial effect of walking was observed during a 60- to 90-minute window following the meal.

Just 2 minutes of walking after eating can help blood sugar, study says. Getting up and moving after you eat -- even if it's only for two minutes -- can help control blood sugar levels, a new study says.
If you can't do that, try standing. It helps, too.

It can relieve stress.
You may have heard that red wine is a natural relaxer, but it's nothing compared to vodka, which studies have shown to relieve tension better than vino.

After I proposed, my future wife - a bit of a hippie - asked me not to get her a ring. She dislikes jewelry. Just as a symbol of marriage we each bought cheap $10 rings. We've been married 24 years.

Yes, coldness tights the pores, but not permanently. Yes, rice has an effect on skin, but it won't do much in this form as it doesn't penetrate the skin. Better get a cream with rice extract in it!

I haven't read anything in this thread but I know BP well enough to know that many of these 'facts' will be, at best, contested, and at worst simply not true.

The FACT that these are just there without any source, any link to any reputable data is sketchy. Don't just share stuff that is written on or under stock photos. Even Einstein warned us about it: einstein-online.jpg
