Giving advice on the internet is like calling a random number. You're ready to dispense some wisdom and knowledge but there's no guarantee that someone will answer and listen.

However, when Twitter user Hipster Viking Amy (@lasrina) dished hers, many did. "So everybody's got, like, a 'wear sunscreen' level piece of advice they want to pass on to others," she wrote. "You know, 'I can't actually teach you any of the important stuff I know about how to live, so here's my thing I can pass on' - and mine is 'Microwave in short bursts and stir.'"

In fact, not only were people thankful for this gem, many decided to repay Hipster Viking Amy for it with their own tips, creating a pretty useful thread for the everyday person.

    This is spot on. Offer to take out trash, clean a bathroom, vacuum or mop a floor, change light bulbs or HVAC filters, walk the dog. Those things mean so much to a person who feels helpless.

    It's often challenging to change your habits. Even if you want to. One of the reasons why it's hard to be your own adviser is because you're too close to your own problems, and so your emotions are more likely to cloud your judgement.

    So getting help from outsiders helps—it's actually much easier to identify the most rational option when you've got an outsider's vantage point. "When we are in a particular situation, we take lots of irrelevant factors into account," behavioral economist and best-selling author Dan Ariely told The Cut. "But when we’re external to it, we sometimes look at things more objectively."

    Imagine, Ariely asked the participants of one of his studies, that your regular doctor has given you some serious diagnosis. Would you ask for a referral so you can get a second opinion? Most people, he discovered, say no — they don't want to offend their doctor, even if the health stakes at hand are high.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    "But if we ask them if they would tell somebody else to go for a second opinion, they say, Of course, yes," Ariely continued, adding that the insight is applicable in a wide range of situations.

    "When you're in love, you can't imagine the situation will ever change. So you keep on thinking to yourself, I will always feel this way," he explained.

    "But when somebody else sees you from the outside, they can say, This is right, or This is wrong, or Don't do it, because they're not infatuated. They can see things from a more objective way."

    The truth is that when we think about other people, and what might be right for them, it's a lot easier to see them as the big picture. And it's much harder to apply that big-picture perspective to ourselves.

    It's a consequence of something psychologists call the fundamental attribution error; the idea that people explain their own actions by the circumstances, but judge others' behavior as clear signals of their character flaws.

    So next time you're typing some advice on Twitter, pay closer attention to your own words. There's a good chance you're actually saying something you need to hear as well.

    We live about 10 minutes from the tennessee river. In the summer we have about 15 different swimming holes, some with 20 foot cliffs the kids like to jump off and some with rope swings. Sometimes we take out kayak out and take turns. All year we get out and explore, fish, take pictures and just walked around. Different areas are good for different things. There is a bird watching area set up with binoculars for when the cranes come in.sometimes during a full moon we go out and take pics of it reflecting off the water. Wr just get OUT OF THE HOUSE AND IT IS ALL FREE!

    Would rather not have to scrub black bits out of a healing wound. Google styptic pencils. Amazon or most pharmacies sell them really cheap and they’re packaged like lip balms. Just moisten and rub on small cuts and the bleeding stops.

    This might not be good advice as an air fryer can reach higher temperatures (which allows them to cook conventionally fried products) the a conventional toaster oven, so there is a difference for somethings but you'd need to do your own research to check if those diffences are things you would be doing.n

    Bring feminine products! Even if you don't use them for their intended purpose, they make excellent thick compression bandages. Tampons have long been used for puncture wounds like bullet holes.

    I do this when my partner and I buy random vegetables or seasonings. What's it for? No idea, we'll find a cool recipe! I now have 20+ recipes we cook often from all over the world thanks to randomly grabbing veggies and things I normally wouldn't.

    Get a microwave that uses inverter technology. I had one for years and then replaced it with one that didn't. Regretted it and sold it and bought another with inverter technology. This will explain better why than I can: https://dwellingexpertise.com/is-inverter-worth-it

    If you're growing more veggies than you can eat, you can also call your local food pantry/food bank and see if they want some. Food pantries are often very short on fresh foods and produce.

    I'm confused. What kind of electic kettle keeps hot water around forever? Does the OP mean a tea urn? Unless you need lots and lots of hot water, boiling a conventional electric kettle for just what you need is much more cost effective.

    Skip the magic sponges and sprinkle in a little baking soda, rub with a slightly wet paper towel, and stains are gone. Also works on chrome appliances like toasters with burnt-on stuff marring the surface.

    Yes this is rough to navigate. My wife and I have a found a good balance but it wasn't always easy. We made a rule that anything said after 3am and before 6am doesn't count lol. Both of us can be grumpy waking up in the middle of the night. I work and she stays at home. Neither of us can afford to miss much sleep. One thing we decided is she will get up in the morning and I will stay up late for night time feedings. My middle of the day shift works out that way. It ebbs and flows but we are on baby number 2 in the last 3 years so we found a good balance.

    I've seen quite a few plunger-related tips What do you guys do to toilets that they need plunging so much? Is this related to the use of toilet paper to completely cover the toilet seat before sitting down, or just general over-use thereof?

    Rubbish. Preheating means that the body of the oven, not just the air in it, is at the required temperature, so it won't drop by 50 degrees as soon as you put your cold item in it. Crucial for baking, important for accurate timing of other items, roast meats particularly.
