Annoy new-age hippy type people

Amuse yourself at a blind-friend's expense
by challenging him to a pube-burning contest. Laugh as he flaps about with his own private bushfire while you simulate the smell by burning a few nail-clippings.

Amusing trick
Pretend you've won Formula 1 by placing your thumb over the end of the penis at the point of ejaculation. This creates a rather amusing champagne-bottle spray as seen on the winners podium, and a more satisfying facial. Providing she doesn't wake up.

Proper top tip, that I've just tested
Got hiccups that won't fuck off? They start off amusing, but they lose their appeal after a minute or so. Someone told me a cure and I thought "that's just silly", but I tested it not 5 mins ago, and it works.

To get rid of hiccups, suck the juice out of a wedge of lemon. Hiccups stop immediately.

Now the science bit:
I've not a bastard clue why or how.

how to give yourself enormous back pain during an exam
When taking a 3 hour short-essay format test in those lecture halls with the small fold-out writing surfaces - if you're right handed, make sure to sit in one of the few left handed seats, but don't notice that you've made an error until exams are out and noone can switch spots. If you're left handed, just get a right handed desk. My spine made some weird sounds for a day or two after 3 hours of being hunched over my left knee frantically scribbling my way towards an A- in the course...

oh and another useful one: if you need to bring a tear to your eye and/or induce a sneeze, yank a nosehair out

Receipts.
If you find yourself with an accumulation of old receipts in your wallet/purse, DO NOT THROW THEM AWAY! They will be invaluable when you've just squeezed out a turd of epic proportions in the pub toilets, only to realise that there is, in fact, not tissue.

Kitchen cupboard cocktails!
Domestos is an ideal substitute for Blue Curaco, and far less pricey.
It gives any cocktail a bit of "oomph."

Like a banana mid-morning?
Find that by the time you get to work it's bruised?

Use a glove as a banana-cosy so that it doesn't get bruised in your bag.

WHEN reading a book try tearing out the pages as you read them. This
saves the expense of buying a bookmark, and the pages can later be
used for shopping lists.

Policemen/women want an easy bust on a slow day?
Do a PNC check on car registration BD51 RWP. Then go round an issue a ticket for a dodgy side light.

Monarch Air
If you're taller than 5ft tall, don't bother with Monarch Air. They have the shortest legroom known to man. I was left crippled after a torturous 5hr flight to Egypt. Twunts!

Motorists
Don't waste time and energy flashing your lights at a car registered BD51 RWP to alert the driver to a faulty passenger-side headlight. I know it's gone, I just can't be arsed to fix it.

Curry-eating pile sufferers
Keep your medicated moistened toilet tissue in the fridge. You'll find them cooling, soothing and yet, slightly shocking!

Just remember to collect them from the fridge ON THE WAY TO THE BOG.

Virus and Malware writers:
Why not include a little pop-up window with your e-mail address, in your next piece of "work". This will make it so much easier for the thousands of people like me, who have just been forced to spend hours (despite fairly secure surfing practice) digging the latest examples of your handiwork out of their system; to congratulate your 'mad l33t haxxor skills'* or whatever the fuck you think you're doing when you code your latest piece of digital tripe.

* may actually involve tracking them down and smashing their stupid faces in with a Tyre Iron. Followed by my brief yet highly publicised trial for GBH, acquittal by a jury of equally indignant computer users; and finally picking up a small Knighthood in the New Year's Honours, for services to society.

You owe me hours, you bastards. The garden needs weeding, but instead I had to weed out your persistent little DNS re-router. I have laundry to do, but instead I had to clean the registry. I have legal cases to assemble, jobs to apply for, real work to do with my PC; and you've stopped me.

If you feel the overwhelming need to involve yourselves in other peoples lives, why not devote your energies in ways that improve society? There are many charitable organisations that always need volunteers, and in the end this will be a far more worthwhile legacy than simply proving to thousands of people what an utter thoughtless little shite you can be, and how effectively you can steal a little of their time that they'll never get back.
