Got a beer you need opened, but no bottle opener? Take a sheet of paper and fold it a bunch of times until it's about 2" x 1", then leveraging with your thumb and knuckles, pry off lid, as the paper and your skin tears over and over again without successfully opening the bottle, scream at nothing in anger. Next try putting the cap on a sharp counter edge and slam down with palm to remove cap that way instead, effectively breaking off a piece of the counter as well as the neck of the bottle. As your hand bleeds profusely, put your trembling lips to the jagged edge of your bottle and drink deeply, shaking. Feel the shame of your need as you stare weirdly at your furnitureless apartment. #lifehacks

Got a banana that won't peel? Why peel! The skin is very healthy and helps digestion. Remember to remove the sticker.

Thirsty on a long road trip, but no water in sight? Spit in a cup for an hour and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Ask other passengers for assistance and do share.

Light bulb won't fit your new lamp? Easy! Simply crimp some aluminium foil onto the end, and screw it in. The aluminium is malleable enough to ensure a snug fit.

Running out of expensive ciggarettes too quick? Smoke the filter as well! It contains a lot of trapped nicotine and will deliver a refreshing fix just as good. The tobacco companies do not want you to know about this.

Out of condoms and really want to gently caress? Easy! A little melted candle wax will seal your urethra up nicely. When done, simply dip your tip in steamy water and wait for it to dissolve.

Want a tattoo but don't feel like going to a tattoo parlor/are scared of needles?
Get a bunch of scorpions and replace their venom sacs with tattoo ink. Then spray the desired area of your body with scorpion attack pheromone in the shape you want for your tattoo and let the little guys loose!

A high power shop-vac also does the trick. Apply hose to sphincter, and relax.

Let your child help with home styling to make your home truly your own. You can easily make a stylish personal stucco mural by being impatient with the diaper change for your indigested toddler, and have them shitspray your silhouette across the wall opposite the nursing table. True story.

Both include the unexpected horror of being shat in the face. Well not the champagne necessarily, but the other two.

I had a roommate in college that taught me this, but if you want people to know you are fun to hang out with, wear like 14 wooden rosaries around your neck of various styles

People will definitely want to be your friend then.

The easiest way to hack life is to run command line (terminal on Mac). Type life /? and press Enter. Then just pick a command and input your hack in the following pattern
life hack [command 1] [-sufffix 1] [command 2] [-sufffix 2]
When you're done, press Enter.

Note: don't try to input more than two commands at once if your computer's video card is less than 1 GB.
