I'll be honest with you—I really hate life hacks. They started off well, with people sharing clever ways to make life a little easier. But ever since "life hack" videos became insanely viral, we've seen YouTube channels like "5-Minute Crafts," which is probably the worst thing on the internet right now. These channels offer a collection of incredibly dumb life hacks, like fixing a broken screen with toothpaste or using a glue gun to make see-through gloves.

But even without these terrible channels, I still see stuff like "You've been using your belt wrong this entire time!" No, you haven't! It's a belt! There is exactly one right way to use it! You might have found an alternate way to use it, but that doesn't make it better!

Sorry, I got into a rant there. Anyway, these "life hacks" are obviously jokes intended to make fun of the whole trend. Please don't try any of them. They're dumb on purpose. Don't be dumb!
