7 Pointless Pieces Of Advice

Just some useless advice I've learned throughout the years

7 Pointless Pieces Of Advice

1. Listen to Christmas music before Thanksgiving.

“The most wonderful time of the year” doesn't deserve to only last for a month. I listen to christmas music the day after Halloween and let me tell you, I will sing All I want for Christmas is You 24/7 from November 1st until Christmas day.

2. Forget lettuce. Lettuce is gross.

Don’t even lie to yourself. Lettuce without other ingredients or dressing is just crunchy water. It has no taste and it’s a soggy leaf. Gross.

3. Cherish Halloween.

Think about it, Halloween is the one holiday where you don't have extended family asking about school and your sex life. Extremely underrated.

4. Don't buy animals from McDonalds parking lots.

From experience I can honestly tell you that this is an all around bad idea. 99% of the time the animal will have something wrong with it or be aggressive. 0/10 would not recommend.

5. Take risks.

Live life on the edge. Follow this advice as you please. A good start to living a risky life is by not smelling that water bottle you found in your room before you drink it. Is it really water or is it leftover vodka? Guess you'll find out.

6. Don't wear grey leggings in the rain

I learn from experience. I don't think logically for the weather at all times but please trust me when I say that grey is NEVER a good idea in the rain.

7. People will do anything if you say, “bet you won't.”

Remember a few years ago when someone would say, “do it for the vine” and you’d suddenly see people’s morals go out the window? Yeah, “bet you won’t" is the new “do it for the vine.” If you want someone to do something, say it and 9/10 times they're going to do it.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
