I don’t know if this will save your life or not, but try to find a way to keep “emailfrontXX” from following you here. This has got to be a scam in progress, and the Lifehacker staff should help us find a way to stop it.

It’s regional.

“Hey 18 year old, Read the Bible, believe everything in it, and apply it to your life.”

My elderly mom, who can just barely operate even the simplest phone, uses an Android smartphone (mostly so that I can track her whereabouts). The problem is, the dialog boxes brought up by automatic updates change what she’s used to seeing on the phone, and require confirmations that make no sense whatsoever to her.

On the flipside, if you want to experience the absolute WORST s’more on Planet Earth, get one (any flavor) at Hershey’s Chocolate World. I made that mistake a month ago, and I’m still having nightmares about it.

When I was a teen back in the 1960s, before we learned that it “won’t work” I got a series of four injections to desensitize me to urushiol. Before that, exposure to poison ivy was a hideous experience for me. Afterwards, and up to the present, it is a mere annoyance. Believe what you will.

It would have been okay if we’d just let the world end on 9-11.

What’s with the barely-relevant clickbait photo?

Why is that “handy chart” an mp4 file?

Add a generous amount of raw peanuts (shelled, in case it isn’t obvious) to the rice as you start cooking it. Trust me on this: you’ll never again want to do it any other way.

Store it in the freezer.

These all sound like good reasons to make your first trip never. I have an ALDI near my home, and have learned to avoid it like the plague. And I’m sure I would do so even it we didn’t have so many great Korean markets nearby.

You had me until Capri Sun.

I have an Echo Wall Clock 𝘢𝘯𝘥 an Echo Show in my kitchen, and I think they complement each other perfectly.
