Approach a GUY at a bar.
Don't be shy. Remember, being of the fairer sex, you already have the upper hand! Go in confidently, but calmly, with an approachable smile and open with a good, offbeat line - even a personal observation works. If you sense he's interested, casually suggest a future meeting. If talking to him for two minutes did less than impress, you don't have to feel pressured to leave your number. He'll feel flattered whether or not he scored
your digits.
Open A Jar That's Stuck
Though the traditional method was to ask the nearest male, we found he can be easily replaced with a rubber band. All you have to do is place a thick rubber band around the lid, get a good grip, and twist.
Deal With Wardrobe Malfunction
It's important to always keep an emergency kit handy, so you can quickly dim "headlights" with nipple covers or avoid a Tara Reid-scenario with strips of fashion tape. Got a stuck zipper? Run a bar of soap over the teeth - the friction will free it up. For stocking ladders, always have a bottle of clear nail polish at the ready.
Sober Up Fast
If you find yourself getting more drunk than you'd like, step away from the bottle and start drinking water.Eat fructose-rich foods such as fruits, honey and any form of candy, and, if you want to get rid of alcohol breath , down a spoon of mustard.
Mend Clothing Like An Expert
You needn't ask your mother anymore. To fix a pulled thread, buy a "knit picker" from a local fabric store and use it to pull the thread back into the weave. Mending a patch? Just turn the garment inside-out and make small stitches back and forth along the tear. Alternatively, let the holes grow big a la Alexander Wand.
Keep Champers Fizzy After It's Been Opened
Unfortunately, the ol' keep-a-spoon-in-the-bottle trick is a myth. So invest in a champagne stopper, which locks into place on the bottle. But, really, the best way to stop the bubbly going flat is to drink it! Just go easy, OK?
Re-gift Without Getting Busted
In tough economic times, re-getting is no longer seen as tacky... in fact, everyone does it! To pull it off, never pass on a present across gender, age, or holiday lines. Approach the art with caution and make a list to ensure you don't re-gift to the same person who gave it to you - extremely awkward! Also, beware as the expiration date will give away your dirty little secret.
