10 – Buttons,

  • Losing a single button from your shirt is the WORST, and unless you have an easy express sewing machine handy it’s often better to avoid it rather than fix it
  • Nail polish usually helps here – just squirt some directly into the button holes, it won’t prevent it from snapping off if pulled but it’ll certainly stop it the button from unravelling off the rest of your clothing

9 – Aeroplane Germs,

  • When you board an aeroplane, almost every single surface you touch will be riddled with germs, but there are a couple of things you can do to almost completely avoid coming home from a holiday feeling sick
  • Bring along some sanitiser and use it before every meal or drink, then also use it AFTER you wash your hands in the bathroom since aeroplane sinks are notorious for pathogens
  • And 2. Position the air ventilator above you directly down over your mouth to blow the air in front of your personal space, thereby creating enough current to knock away airborne chair germs

8 – DVD scratches,

  • A problem that’s becoming less relevant, but still useful – scratches in your DVD making the movie pause and glitch constantly
  • The solution is, unpeel a banana and then rub it all over the disc, then, when you’re done, buff it clean with the outside of your banana peel
  • For some reason this fixes all the scratch marks and it should work just fine

7 – Gum,

  • There’ll be a lot of times when you’re feeling nervous – maybe you’re going for a job interview, or meeting someone for a date or waiting at the doctors office
  • If you start chewing gum, your brain takes over to instinctively say, hey, you’re eating, that means you’re not in danger, your body gets less tense and you start feeling calm
  • And if you take minty gum, even better – it’ll relax you AND freshen your breath at the same time

6 – Phone Stand,

  • So many times, you’ve got a movie on your phone and you’re trying to watch it on an angle, but the thing you placed your phone on keeps slipping and gotta keep fixing it
  • But all you need to do is place it inside your glasses and it should remain steady providing you’re not trying to watch it on top of a raging, windy mountain
