New parents
Toughen your child up and thicken their skin for the hard knocks in life by telling them that they were adopted and that you don't love them.

If you want to prepare them further for becoming a prize fighter in something, beat them on a regular basis too.

Can't sleep?
Simply take 200g of valerian root. Grind it into a paste and add 300ml of boiling water. Leave it to steep for 30 minutes. Meanwhile take lavendar and remove the flower heads. Put them inside a muslin bag with a similar amount of seed corn (you can purchase this at any health food shop). Next take 3 nutmegs and grind them to a powder. Add this to the extract of valerian and stir well. Sterilise a large glass jar and wipe the inside with lemon juice. Add the tincture of valerian and nutmeg and shake vigorously for 5 minutes. Place the liquid in a saucepan over a high heat and reduce in volume by 3/4. Go out to your garden or a nearby copse and cut 6 good straight hazel rods, less than 1cm in diameter. Strip off the bark (conserve this!) and roughly plait the rods into a broad, shallow bowl. Annoint the hazel bowl with valerian/nutmeg ointment. Heat the lavendar and corn in the microwave for 1 minute until warm and place in the basket. Holding the hazel basketwork at arm's length, walk around your bedroom, ensuring that the herbal essence is wafted into the highest corners and under each item of furniture. Construct a small hammock of woven natural hemp to suspend the basket roughly 1.5m above your pillow. Now you should be so knackered that you will fall asleep easily.

Blocked Nose?
Have a wank. It's surprisingly effective and much more fun than Vick's Sinex.

Do you play for Newcastle United?
Remember when the nice man holds that board up saying '4' it means 4 extra minutes, he isn't a fucking bingo caller. You might get some more fucking points if you play till the ref blows the full time whistle and that way you won't piss all of your fans off.

Female Pornstars
I've yet to meet a man who gets aroused by the sight of a woman angrily slapping her vagina. At best, it looks like a grumble-video tribute to Benny Hill. Why not stop punishing your poor fanny and try something gentler?

Are you a young man who likes to wear black, including black collared shirts?
If so, try doing up the collar and sticking a folded piece of A4 in it to create a makeshift dog collar next time you get on the train.

You will get warm smiles from old ladies and authority figures, and might even get pretty girl start chatting to you in a relaxed fashion, whereby once you've got her interested, you can whip it off and tell her it was just for a bit of a laugh.

This may not have the intended result of her wanting to sleep with you, however.

EDIT: Of note, this is illegal, and I would never, ever condone breaking the law, obviously.
