Because it's not really all that safe to go randomly up to strangers and shaking/fist bumping them?

At best you showed your ignorance and immaturity.

Mobile games be like: you need wifi to play so we can give you ads

Only Canada and across the USA. Still don't talk to strangers. Have your parents taught you nothing?

People go around shaking random people's hands? Better LPT is leave strangers alone and don't approach someone you don't know.

Use the Ian's Shoelace Knot - I've been using it for the past 8+ years since I first learnt it and it had served my very well - https://youtu.be/_O-xaJrao1w
There's others stronger ones, but this should suffice for now, considering it's also technically the "fastest" Knot to do (of course, with practice)

No, they did not.
They wasted it.

Lestoil. Great for blood, grass, and grease based stains. Works on old stains too.

This is the correct answer. I no longer double knot when I do this trick. I learned how to properly tie my shoes at like 25 and it was a life changer. For anyone reading, itll be easier to look up on YouTube what were talking about. In ELI5 language, have the bunny go the other way around the tree.

What world do we live in where it is better to raise a fist than an open hand in greeting?

There is a Ted talk to show you how to correctly tie your shoes. My shoes has never untied ever again. https://youtu.be/zAFcV7zuUDA

If there's two kinds of people I hate in life, it's people who just won't let others buy and use whatever they want, and iPhone users!

Yes! If anyone remember venn diagrams in school. Figure out what chores to share in the middle and what each person can do that the other one won’t. Also, hiring cleaning services, whether once a week, once a month, twice a week, whatever a couple can afford is a game changer… i know a couples’ therapist who first asks couples if the money spent on therapy would be better spent on a cleaning service.

Put a safety pin through, or tie a knot
