10 pieces of silly advice

"I'm feeling silly!"
In the words of Ludwig Wittgenstein, 'If people did not sometimes do silly things, nothing intelligent would ever get done.'

Personally, I think that's a really silly quote, which makes no sense at all. However, I'm in a silly mood, so I'm going to follow Ludwig's advice anyway!

So in the spirit of silliness, here are ten pieces of silly advice...

1) Advice for unsociable people...


If someone you don't like rings your doorbell, put your coat on before answering the door. Then you can tell them you were just going out and you won't have to invite them in!



Advice number 2 applies equally to
anyone with mischievous pugs!

2) Advice for parents...


Cleaning your house while kids are present is like brushing your teeth while eating chocolate.




3) Advice for lazy people...


Save time by filing everything under 'Miscellaneous'.




"It's too scary! I can't watch!"
"Never mind. At least you're not alone..."

4) Advice for lonely people...


If you feel alone, watch a horror movie before you go to bed. You won't feel alone anymore.




4) Advice for criminals...


If you decide to rob a bank, you'll have no worries paying your rent or bills for the next ten years, whether or not you are successful.




5) Advice for remorseful criminals with a sense of humour...


Instead of just turning yourself in, claim to be a witness and describe yourself to the police sketch artist and see how long it takes for them to figure it out.




A messy room.

7) Advice for anyone with a messy room-mate...


Pretend to be an attractive girl on Match or eHarmony, then select your room-mate as a match, and tell him you're coming over so that he'll clean your apartment.




8) Advice for students with writer's block...


If you're struggling to write enough words for a college essay, you can increase the the word count on your essays by writing the word 'the' twice. Your professor probably won't notice. #DidYouSeeWhatIDidThere




This man clearly didn't follow advice number 9.

9) Advice for people in need of a haircut...


In a hairdressers with two hairdressers, choose the hairdresser with the worst haircut.




10) Advice for movie fans...


When you go to the cinema, ensure you have a good view by pouring a drink on the seat in front of you so that no-one will sit there.

Legal disclaimer: Please note, Charles Fudfgemuffin does not actually advocate doing this. It's just a joke. Albeit, a joke which would work.

Although the advice featured above was intended in the spirit of silliness, some of it nevertheless actually makes sense and would probably work!
