Lots of people talking about heating up spoons, that will work but can accidentally be quite painful - you can just blast the area with a hairdryer for a few minutes.

I like the 'somethings' typo cause it's wrong but still works here. So I guess that, you should know that

so long as you pay off the credit card each statement, you get 1-3% discount on things you buy.

In 366 days you will no longer be a teenager, so look forward to your 20s with lots of enthusiasm.

Reply to comment by Yakobee in LPT-A creative way of punishing children, is to get the them to write a 100 words about a topic and print it for you. It can be something about their life, interests, or goals. It will engage them for just a short time. Keep and later return in a folder. Parents can use instead of grounding. by Ricwil12
Are kids that easy to manipulate?
If they were given tv as punishment would they hate tv?
If they were given homework as a reward would they love homework?

Save your money and don’t drop off the face of the earth from friends/family/society.

Don’t get advice only from the internet. Ask the same thing of real people you know and respect IRL.

Then he used way too much vinegar. Probably sprayed it on straight instead of diluting it. It doesn't take much.
If you read the label on the cleaning solutions, half the time the active ingredient is just acetic acid (vinegar), or citric acid.

Save your money, learn how to use credit cards smartly. If you can’t buy it twice you shouldn’t buy it once.
Regarding credit cards, you need to build credit to make your life easier or everything will cost more for you. That means you need a car loan, and a credit card. Start with a secured card and then move to a simple cash back card for gas and groceries. My credit card has paid me back like $500 over the last 3 years and I’ve never paid a cent in interest. When it comes time to buy a car or a house, or secure your own apartment it will make a huge difference.
Unrelated to finances, it’s ok to say no to friends, it’s okay to enjoy things on your own. It’s okay to be alone. Call your mom.

Didn’t work when I tried it. Also practically burned my skin from the hot spoon, lol.
