How to live: 24 weird and outrageous instructions with WikiHow
If you are trying to learn more about the world, you probably first look at Wikipedia. For those who need answers to specific questions and practical recommendations, there is a site WikiHow - with instructions for every occasion. Our editorial board was so impressed that it gathered the strangest (as well as frankly outrageous and dubious) resource instructions - and you will be amazed too. Repeating is not necessary, and in some cases definitely not worth it.
Instructions, the existence of which you probably did not think (and did not know that you need it): how to hug correctly. It tells about both romantic and friendly hugs, as well as signs that, in fact, one can understand that a person is ready for hugs (let us recall the importance of the principle of consent - this also applies to hugs!).
It is difficult to imagine that someone here would need an instruction - and yet it is. The authors advise comfortable clothes, thick fabric and dark colors, not to be afraid that the chest will hang (!) And, in the best traditions of facebook and instagram, they are very afraid of nipples.
Even if you never needed it, you can always try. True, it didn’t do without terry sexism - for example, men are advised to be more polite not to impersonate themselves, and women - healthy competition ("For example, one of the men would say this:" I just broke everyone in Call of Duty yesterday ! “And you will answer:“ Wow, this is great. Last weekend I killed 71 enemies per game. How many did you manage to kill? ”").
Instructions that clearly demonstrate how untenable the toxic idea of a "mysterious girl" is, for example, are advised to talk about themselves sparingly, to behave detachedly and restrain feelings. But the most outrageous point is “mutually exclusive hobbies” (“Paint your lips with lipstick, put on a short skirt and carry with you the volume of the Divine Comedy. Learn to play the violin and go to football. Surprise”).
We hope you do not share the idea that the “real girl” should not swear - but, nevertheless, for those who want to stop, there is also an instruction. The most unexpected advice: "Imagine that you are constantly with your grandmother."
You may have been taught this as a child, but here is the instruction just in case. From it you will learn what "royal cotton" is, and at the same time why with applause you need to be more careful in the church and at concerts of classical music.
It is difficult to imagine a situation in which you may need this instruction, and yet. The authors advise you to ruffle your hair, stain your clothes, imitate sore eyes, as well as violate someone’s private space, stumble, speak slowly and deny that you are drunk. Honestly, all this sounds like bad advice.
Instructions explaining how to download and install a computer game at work and play unnoticed by the authorities (at your own risk) with additional tips ("If you are noticed while playing computer games, just admit it. Obviously, office software software has tricked you, so your lies will only aggravate the situation ") and warnings (" If you shout at game characters, either refrain from playing in the office, or play games that do not cause you special emotions ").
Tattoos thinking authors instructions called mental stamps. All this may sound incomprehensible, but in fact it is a question of how to think outside the box and unusual approach to different situations - with the wish to do a "tattoo of good, positive thinking" in the end.
Everything about how to look and behave "expensive" - from teeth whitening and manicure to learning new words, unusual hobbies and volunteering. The question is why left behind the brackets.
