Redditor Wijting told Bored Panda that they were inspired to create the thread because they hope that it would help them work some stuff out. "The reason why I made the thread was because I had something on my mind. I think I've been doing something wrong for a while. I was hoping the thread would give me the courage to ask the question myself. To be honest, my particular problem compared to some answers on the thread was rather small," they opened up.

I was also interested to find out whether the redditor thinks that being candid in embarrassing and awkward situations actually helps bring people closer together. "People like honesty and honesty within any type of relationship will make the bond stronger. This is a personal view though," they told Bored Panda.

According to redditor Wijting, taking small steps "to build up courage" can be a good way to admit our flaws and ask someone for some helpful advice. "Try to hint at, or try to lead with smaller questions."

Wijting shared with me that they were "taken aback" by the response their thread got. "A lot of people think they are doing things wrong that I have always taken for granted. Not knowing how to shave, for instance. These questions have made me think if I'm actually doing these things wrong myself... Some questions were rather deep, and I do hope the people that have asked them got some satisfying answers."

Meanwhile, Age UK had this to say. "We know that our thinking skills change very gradually throughout our lives, but there are things we can do to help us to stay sharp," Age UK told Bored Panda. "Evidence from the Global Council of Brain Health suggests that having a positive mental attitude, a healthy diet, taking exercise, socializing, and engaging in new activities are all linked to better thinking skills later in life."

Ever since the earliest age, we are introduced and guided through a set of rules. As a result, we expect there's always a task, or a model image for us to emulate. But once you're out of school, there's no more guidance. Now it's up to you to guide others. So you have to change the approach to life. Stop thinking in terms of "supposed to do" and start with "what do I really want to do? What is it that makes me happy?" If you're not sure, try to accumulate different kinds of experience, be it through hobbies, friendships, education, travel, work etc. And keep observing how you do within these and how it makes you feel, whether you want to keep it, improve it, or leave it. You have way more freedom than you know.

According to a representative of Age UK, it's vital that we keep our bodies and our minds in tip-top shape. The relationship between the two is well-established, so taking care of your body is bound to have a positive effect on your mind, too.

"It is clear to scientists and doctors that keeping the blood vessels and blood flow healthy is also key to maintaining your brain function as you age so what is good for the heart is good for the brain too," Age UK points out.

However, some other things that help us stay curious and willing to learn and explore new things include having a strong sense of purpose and having an active social life as well. What's more, we ought to be as realistic as possible about our own limits and plan accordingly.

"Keeping active and busy and discovering new things and even making sure we stay socially active all help to keep us brighter as we get older. Setting goals and making plans gives our lives meaning and purpose, but make sure they’re realistic plans. For example, rather than saying ‘I plan to exercise for one hour every day,’ plan instead to go for a 20-minute walk, three times a week."

Finding the courage to admit that you’re doing something wrong is commendable. Being brave enough to set your ego aside and actually reach out for help is worth applauding, in my personal opinion.

Earlier, I had a chat about healthy and unhealthy ways of showing embarrassment with regards to our knowledge blindspots with Vanessa Bohns from Cornell University.

Be encouraging but direct. It takes a kind, humble, straight forward, strong minded, truthful, and understanding person to be able to manage other people. We tend to think calling people out or getting other's to do their job properly. Is somehow mean or we don't want to come off as bossy. But the right attitude and getting to know those you manage somewhat personally. Helps you figure out how to guide them. Just remember to encourage and be nice. People usually want to do what you say when they feel needed and lifted up.

"We spend a lot of time and effort presenting an ideal version of ourselves to other people. When something happens that contrasts with the image we’ve been projecting—when we say or do something that shows we actually aren’t as graceful or as smart as we’d like people to believe—we feel embarrassed," Vanessa told Bored Panda in a previous interview.

"Discovering you were wrong about something most everyone else around you has long known to be true is one of those moments. In that moment we learn, 'Wait a minute, maybe I haven’t been presenting the image of being smart or worldly that I thought I was presenting all this time,' which is embarrassing,” she noted that embarrassment comes from the contrast from what we thought was true and what reality is actually like.

However, embarrassment isn’t all that bad. In fact, it has some upsides that should have you rushing to embarrass yourself as often as you can. “One thing that’s interesting about embarrassment is that, for as much as we might experience it as painful in the moment, it’s actually very socially adaptive.”

Vanessa continued: “Being embarrassed signals to other people that you care about what they think. And that actually draws people in to you.” In short, embarrassment has painful short-term effects but very positive long-term effects. If we learn to deal with the former well, then we’ll be able to reap the latter.

“So blushing, burying your head in your hands, laughing, acknowledging how embarrassing something was, are all totally healthy ways to react,” Vanessa explained to Bored Panda. “The unhealthy way to react is to pretend you’re not embarrassed, that you didn’t make a mistake, or to get angry. Those things undo the positive effect of embarrassment typically has on other people by conveying insincerity and pushing people away rather than drawing them in.”

You have to find the 'sweet spot' for your car (I drive a 3door Mini Cooper so for me it my petrol cap/cover). Pull up along the car in front, align your sweet spot with the end of the car, one full turn of the wheel while reversing slowly. When you are 45 degrees to the curb, straighten with one full turn the opposite way. Using your wing mirrors, when the back of your car (the side furthest away from the curb) is level with the car behind, one full turn of the wheel again (the same direction as the second time). Just as you get parallel to the curb, one full turn back to straighten the wheels. Or as my instructor put it '1 turn, 2 turns, 1 turn.'

Evil Little Thing 3 years ago

Yes. It's honestly not hard at all, but you have to know where your car stops and other cars begin. Most people underestimate the space between their front and back bumpers and the cars in front and behind them, so they turn and straighten out too soon. If it looks like you're going to smash into something you probably have a half a meter or more between you.

I hate parallel parking and I have to do it nearly every day because of where I live. For anyone who struggles with it here are my tips - (sorry if they're obvious). Line yourself up next to the space to check the space is big enough. If it is great, if it isn't, find somewhere else. Always reverse in, unless of course it's a wonderfully huge space. Take your time, relax. No one's watching except maybe that person across the street because you might bump their car. If you hit the curb, it's not a problem. We all do it. Make sure you've left enough space front and back to get out and for anyone parked next to you. If you get the angle wrong, start again. The handbrake is your friend.

Pull up alongside the car you will park behind. Ignore everyone around you, in or out of the car. They are of no use in this matter. Put the vehicle in reverse, look beside you, behind you and begin backing up slowly when safe to do so. This is the important bit: when the back seat of your car is even with the back bumper of the front car begin turning your steering wheel to your right. Keep backing slowly, occasionally look at the front end of your car to be sure you won't hit the front car with the front of your car. When you are in the space pull forward a bit to even out the set of the car. Go to the mall and find a car parked by itself in a quiet part of the lot. Pull up beside it and practice this. You can also practice this by using parking space lines with no cars. No back car relieves some of the pressure on you and no audience helps immensely. Good luck! You can do it!

Pull up next to the car in front of the empty spot. Make sure your back bumper is aligned with theirs. Turn the wheel one full turn to the right (that is, rotate the wheel 360º clockwise) and back up until the other car's license plate is visually in the center of your windshield. Then turn the wheel all the way to the left and continue backing in until your car has straightened out. Lastly, never be embarrassed again about parallel parking.

Stick with it. You’ll have the degree, instead of regrets about quitting when you were so close. A doctorate will also open more doors, especially in your field, so you’ll have jobhunting options. You’ll always have the fallback to teaching at the university level, where the real money is, as long as you stick with it long enough to gain tenure. Plus it allows you to continue doing research, and often fully funds it as well.

She doesn’t sound worth fighting for. Cheating emotionally is way WORSE then just physically. Lust can happen, even though in a good relationship you’d never act on it, but being emotionally attached to someone else means the current relationship is done.

Parenting my child who is 12, born female but just asked us to use him/they pronouns and a male name. I’m a lesbian. My (37F) wife (47F) and I fully support our kiddo. But my thoughts wander, because I don’t feel like this kid is trans. I think they are on a journey of self discovery. Then I feel guilty. I just want to be 100% supportive. I am ashamed to be a member (advocate, equal rights-fighting lesbian) of the LGBTQ++ community and yet feel so helpless and confused.

Massage, not brush. Use a soft toothbrush. Take your time - divide your mouth into 4 sections and brush each for 30s. Use only a pea-sized amount of toothpaste. With hair, wash only the hair on your scalp and let the soapy water go down your whole hair to clean it while rinsing. This way you don't overdry your ends, as they need the oils to keep alive. The amount of shampoo and the type will depend on your hair. In my teens I needed to wash my short hair twice to get grease out, in my late 20s I need a lot more shampoo but only one wash as my hair is porous and dyed. Don't be afraid to experiment!

My marriage and dealing with mental health.

For starters, I’m 23 my wife is 21. I have pretty much ruined my marriage, what’s killing me is I don’t know how. We’re both in the Army. She went home for a medical emergency 2 weeks ago for 10 days. All she did was drink and party. Barely talked to me at all. Told me to leave her alone. She comes back. Acts super shady. Changed her password and sleeps with her phone under her pillow and when I ask who she’s talking to she says don’t worry about it or nobody. She wears glasses so I can clearly see her switching from Snapchat to another app… Got on her MacBook to talk to my mom on Skype and her texts popped up. Her friends were encouraging her to go hook up with an ex. She hung out with this dude several times when she was there. I am 90% sure she cheated on me. This weekend is our anniversary and she’s doing a girls weekend. I have no idea what to do. I try talking to her and she says she wants space and a break. I’m super f**king depressed. As I’m writing this I am on my 30th hour without sleep. I can’t get out of my own head. Im so depressed and I’m so alone. I’m so tired. Any advice is welcome. Not sure if this is the right place to post this

You should vacuum once or even better twice a week. Your bath and kitchen should be cleaned with water every week, if you don't wear shoes inside, for the rest of the apartment, once a month wet cleaning is enough. You buy a mop, you put a bucket with water and cleaning detergent (special one for every floor type or an allrounder), you wet the mop and wring it out until it is not really wet any more, then you swipe a little part of the floor - repeat until finished. It is a very intense work. If there is water left on the floor wipe it up with another towel. Do not let the water on the floor! it will destroy your floor and if it is a lot or done often, even the apartment underneath yours.

Do what feels right to you. How people perceive you is their issue, not yours. If you express your self authentically (you do not judge, you express your feelings, what is going on inside of you), then you can sleep soundly and stop caring so much about other peoples’ opinions. Notice the difference between “You look good” and “I like the way you look.” First one is judgment (even when positive) and the other one is expressing your opinion and/or feeling. Another example is “You piss me off” and “I am angry with what you just said/did.” Good for you to ask this, I hope you will find your way!

I'm worried I made a bad decision. Everyone tells me it was a good decision but it feels wrong.

I was self employed, doing pretty well, making ends meet. I made my own schedule, the work changed often, I loved what I was doing. But I was not declaring any income, not paying taxes, no insurance, no way to expand....basically no future until I died working...but I was happy.

I got a "real" job. I now work in a factory. Paying taxes, have health insurance, paid weekly with no variability, bonuses...and I hate it. No climate control, 50 hours a week minimum, 2nd shift, bringing home less money after everything. I keep telling myself I am doing this so I can buy my house in 2 years...but I don't think this job will ever make more than 45k/yr. I feel like once again I am gonna die working but this time it will be miserable doing something I hate instead of happy doing something I love.

But everyone else feels comfortable with it, so Its gotta be right, right?

Therapy. My psychologist constantly tells me it's small steps but it feels like nothing is changing. He wants me to catalogue each day devoid of emotion and it feels so pointless. What does it matter if I spent all day playing a game and then the next reading? Most of my anxiety is from external sources that I can't control and therapy hasn't reduced it at all so far. This is my third therapist, my second one did help but I moved. Basically I set a few goals and it feels like I'm not even moving towards them. It's gotta be me doing something wrong because I know he's a talented and qualified therapist. Or maybe I'm just expecting results too soon.

cj_cusack Report

Sleazy Weaver 3 years ago

The Oxford comma is the comma after the second to last item in a list of things. Let's say we're writing a grocery list. Without an Oxford comma, it would be "eggs, milk, bacon and bread." With an Oxford comma it would be "eggs, milk, bacon, and bread." It separates bacon from bread with a comma. It comes after the second to last word, before the word and. This can be very useful when seeing two things as related could change the context completely. For example, "The party had strippers, Washington and Lincoln." With an Oxford comma you would be able to tell I'm saying strippers were at the party, as well as Washington and Lincoln. Without the comma, it can be read as though Washington and Lincoln are the strippers. Hope this makes sense for anyone confused about the Oxford comma!

I got my Bachelors in Chemistry this Spring and have sent out a nice few resumes and had one interview (didn't get the job) but now I have no idea what I want to keep doing. There isn't many opportunities in my province and the thought of having to possibly move to the other side of Canada alone to a place where I know no one and have never been before is terrifying.

While I was still in uni I had a set routine of what I can expect to be doing for the next year but now that is all gone and I feel so lost. Do I stick around here for god knows how long and try and get a job related to my degree in this province? Do I go back to school next year and try and do something else to go along with my degree (Education degree or something)? Do I bite the bullet and move away knowing that it will wreck me mentally?

Using the clutch on a manual vehicle. I have heard you're not supposed to keep the clutch depressed while your approaching stop lights or standing at them. They say it wears more when you do, but I never understood how. The way I understand clutches, they should wear less while the clutch is disengaged because all the parts that wear are not pressed into each other causing friction.

I use my clutch a lot when I drive at low speeds, because no one ever told me you shouldn't until i had the habits built. No one has ever been able to explain the problem to me, even with some googling.

If you don't depress the clutch at a stop, your engine will stall, since giving it any gas would make it move the car forward. Did someone tell you to put the gear in neutral when you stop? That would let you let the clutch up without stalling the engine, but it isn't an efficient way to drive. I keep my clutch in at a stop, or when slowing, and use that time to shift into the gear number that I will need next (usually first gear at a stop). I also use a combo of partial clutch and gas to keep my car from rolling back on a hill! This is a skill - not a failing. Clutches don't wear out that fast. Don't worry about it!

In my spare time, I'm an avid hiker and reader, enjoy writing short stories, and love to doodle. I thrive when I'm outdoors, going on small adventures in nature.
