if you are white and your tattoo features a swastika because you’re nazi, then you are terrible
if you are white and your tattoo features a swastika because you’re totally into hinduism and you think indians are magical then you are terrible
if you are white and your tattoo features a swastika because it’s a navajo peace symbol and you think that kind of indians are magical then you are terrible

if you are white and your tattoo features a swastika for any other reason then you are still clearly terrible and never took history

stop it with the swastikas!

Priyanka and Saeb have both helped me a lot coming up with words for tricky letters and giving me feedback on weird ideas. I couldn’t have done it without their help.

• Accidentally close a tab? Ctrl+Shift+T reopens it.
• Bananas release dopamine, eat them when you’re sad.
• CTRL+SHIFT+ESC is the one handed version of CTRL+ALT+DEL
• Don’t brush your teeth hard, it makes them sensitive and removes enamel.
• Don’t like spiders? Put citronella oil on your walls and they will not go there.
• Drink one glass of water for every alcoholic drink you have, you’ll get drunk without getting a hangover.
• Get clear ice cubes by boiling water before freezing it
• Heal paper cuts and immediately stop the pain with chapstick.
• If you accidentally write on your dry erase board with a permanent marker, scribble over it with a dry eraser marker to remove it.
• If your shoes smell, put them in the freezer overnight, it will kill the bacteria.
• Make bug bites stop itching with a banana peel.
• Make a paper longer with 12-point text, but 14-point periods and commas.
• Need to get around a blocked website at work? Try replacing the http:// with https://
• Never send your resume as a word file (unless asked) Instead, print it to a pdf file, it’s much cleaner and professional looking.
• Pick a flavor of gum you don’t normally chew, and chew it while studying during a test.
• Place a piece of bread in a container with your homemade cookies and they will stay soft.
• Put a dry towel into a dryer with wet clothes, they will dry faster.
• Put toothpaste on a pimple and it will dry out.
• Practise fake smiling in the mirror every day before going to work/school, you’ll genuinely start to feel happier.
• Rub canola/olive oil on knives before cutting onions, you won’t cry, alternatively chew gum and you won’t either.
• Short on time with a wrinkled dress shirt? Hang it up in the bathroom to steam it flat.
• The night before, place things you don’t want to forget the next morning on top of your shoes.
• Use hydrogen peroxide to remove blood stains from clothing.
• When cleaning windows use newspapers or coffee filters instead of paper towels, they will not leave streaks.
• When microwaving bread products/pizza put a glass of water in with it, it will keep your bread for going spongy.
• When you move into a new place you’re renting, take pictures of any and all damage, then post them on facebook (privately if preferred) so you can use the reference date as proof you didn’t do it.
• When searching plane tickets online delete your cookies prior, prices go up when you visit a site multiple times.

you do get drunk when drinking one glass of water for every glass of alcohol, but much less so. you might as well drink twice as much of a half as alcoholic drink
chapstick does not heal cuts, are you that dumb?
all you do by putting your shoes in the freezer is freezing the bacteria to a point where they can’t reproduce. when you thaw them up they’ll start smelling again.
[citation needed] on the gum flavour. really.
you get pimples because your skin is oily. it’s oily to compensate for you constantly drying it out with toothpaste because you’re an idiot.
when cleaning windows, use cloth. unless you hate trees in which case use paper or whatever.
your digital photos will have the date stored in the file, no need to upload them to facebook like a noob.
deleting cookies is a waste of time and a pain in the ass, just use incognito mode.

TL;DR you are all noobs
