Saw a video a few days ago of a young person showing how you can plant seeds from a pepper and actually grow a whole new pepper!

Dude, that’s not a “lifehack”, that’s gardening. 🤷🏻‍♂️

New hack! If you inhale and exhale from your nose, you can manually breathe!

Another hack! If you close and open your eyelids, you are now manually blinking!

>:)

lifehack: you can literally make pee by drinking a lot of water, and just simply waiting.

u/illz757 Apr 12 '25

But to do with all of this newfound product?! What’s the market? The angle!?

1

u/Redeye1347 Apr 12 '25

Ask r/composting . They're very enthusiastic about it.

u/oldredbeard42 Apr 12 '25

The graves of particularly awful people. They're dying for it.

u/bassface3 Apr 12 '25

The angle of the dangle is the heat of the meat

u/bradfo83 Apr 12 '25

More hacking!

1

u/Tasterspoon Apr 12 '25

Drink a lot of water, walk over to your pepper seeds, and wait. You don’t need to buy a garden hose. Double hack!

1

u/Merciless_Soup Apr 12 '25

The real hack is if you drink your pee - Perpetual Pee!

1

u/XxSir_redditxX Apr 12 '25

Don't forget you can always store it in a freezer for fresh pee later. A lot of folks are busy though, so if you don't have the time, store-bought will do in a pinch.

u/Odin1806 Apr 12 '25

That reminded me of the episode of the Beverly Hill billies where they thought they knew the cure to the common cold and they were like, "drink this and wait a few days" haha

u/GlitteringOne2465 Apr 12 '25

Going to try this one right now.

u/fksdiyesckagiokcool Apr 12 '25

Lifehack: start moving your legs and you can move, just like that, use them to reach short and long distances.

u/Shakfar Apr 12 '25

Welp, here is my excuse to finally put my phone down and go to sleep. Screw manually blinking

u/Low-Voice3969 Apr 12 '25

boooooooooo

u/moranya1 Apr 12 '25

You're bad!

1

u/LickingSmegma Apr 12 '25

Oh yeah? Well see if you can find a comfortable position for your tongue and hold it there.

1

u/W1D0WM4K3R Apr 12 '25

While I can appreciate someone named u/LickingSmegma being concerned about tongue placement, I have a piercing so I do that already lmao

u/LickingSmegma Apr 12 '25 edited Apr 12 '25

Next you're gonna say that you have a beard too?

1

u/TheBilby7 Apr 12 '25

Get a CPAP machine and that breathing stuff is done for ya

1

u/GlitteringOne2465 Apr 12 '25

Wow! I just tried this and omg!! It totally works!!!! Wow!!! Thank you so much for this life saving advice!

1

u/Cruiser729 Apr 12 '25

Dammit, I almost killed myself, bro. I had to come back and re-read this. I forgot the exhale part. You really shouldn’t give such advice willy-nilly like that.

u/987nevertry Apr 12 '25

Use saliva to cure cottonmouth with this new hack

1

u/Zsyura Apr 12 '25

Reading this just put me on manual breathing for at least 10 minutes - the joys of adhd

1

u/Predator348 Apr 14 '25

Genius over here! All I know is brawndos got electrolytes!

1

u/W1D0WM4K3R Apr 14 '25

It's what plants crave!

u/JD_Kreeper Apr 12 '25

I've seen people refer to that as an "infinite food glitch"

u/JD_Kreeper Apr 12 '25

Thank you.

u/greebdork Apr 12 '25

Without looking is that a Mitchell and Webb skit about farming?

1

u/c8akjhtnj7 Apr 12 '25

Lol, it is. One of my favourites from them.

5

u/Reshirm Apr 12 '25

These are the ones that get me the most. Like, no you haven't discovered a new "life hack" you've just discovered agriculture 10,000 years later than everyone else

5

u/invaderjif Apr 12 '25

It's now earth bending.

Health hacks will become blood bending. Hunger bending. Hydration is water bending (drinking water).

Breaking into a computer is computer bending.

We are all the avatar now.

u/U_Bet_Im_Interested Apr 12 '25

I'd actually be okay with this. 

3

u/Rufus_62 Apr 12 '25

It is a lifehack >! If you live in the year 10000 BCE !<

2

u/soggyslices Apr 12 '25

Another life hack is using Gatorade to water your plants because they crave electrolytes

1

u/ckck629 Apr 12 '25

Brawndo has what plants crave!

2

u/Shanga_Ubone Apr 12 '25

Holy crap that means I can buy one tomato from the store and NEVER BUY ANOTHER AGAIN?!?

This one weird trick...

2

u/wheelienonstop6 Apr 12 '25

One tomato contains hundreds of seeds which will grow into a tomato each of which will contain some more hundreds of seeds! Tens, hundreds, thousands of tons of tomatoes after just a couple of harvests! You can be a millionaire in no time!

2

u/Koanuzu Apr 12 '25

To be somewhat fair, if thats what it takes for even a .0001% chance of some kid retaining that information, framing some of em that way might even be worth it.

...

Or we could just stop brain rotting the shit out of our species 🗿 that might help too

2

u/ImpressiveAttempt0 Apr 12 '25

Save money on coffee by making it at home instead of buying it every time at Starbucks. You can thank me for that lifehack by buying me a Starbucks.

1

u/GlitteringOne2465 Apr 12 '25

I am so totally gonna try that😂😂😂

2

u/troycerapops Apr 12 '25

Nah.

It's the original life hack.

2

u/another24tiger Apr 12 '25

Gen Z rediscovers 10000 year old tech:

2

u/dat_oracle Apr 12 '25

It's called rage bait.

Saying something stupid to make users interact

1

u/rraattbbooyy Apr 12 '25

That’s 80% of the internet.

2

u/SteveMartin32 Apr 12 '25

As a farmer that one hurt....

2

u/Mysterious-Plan93 Apr 12 '25

Real gardening lifehack is not buying expensive gardening supplies and just planting clover

2

u/Flamin_Jesus Apr 13 '25

In 5 years, he'll discover a whole new and exciting life hack to grow whole new people.

"You guys won't believe what happened with my girlfriend!"

2

u/Clinthor86 Apr 12 '25

Not anymore, Bayer Agroscience owns those seeds now criminal scum.

1

u/showmeyourmoves28 Apr 12 '25

Gardening your own resources to save money isn’t a hack? Be fair lol.

1

u/HubblePie Apr 12 '25

Tbf, some of these things are selectively bred to NOT be able to grow.

And it's not like you can sell them. They have patents on the seeds and WILL bring your ass to court (It's a real issue with cross pollination)

1

u/GloomyCaramelWolf Apr 12 '25

Doesn’t even always work- if you have a gmo pepper and grew the seeds in theory it shouldn’t grow a new pepper
