ITT Wikihow teaches us how to do things

that seems so unusually specific I wonder if there is a back-story involving personal experience

In Europe, a fork and knife are used differently than in the US. If you are right-handed, eat with the fork in the left hand and the knife in the right. Europeans cut each bite individually with the knife in the right hand and the fork in the left hand, and rest their arms midway between wrist and elbow

Erm... do they not do this in the US? I vaguely recall reading an odd World Book article about how merricuns swap knives and forks but passed it off as an old book.

yeah, what the heck are you all up to?

Good thread.

Go all ga ga and just make baby noises. Say something like "Aw, goo, who's a liddle baby den, coochy coochy coo, look at you!" Total nonsense baby talk can maneuver you right around the issue of ugliness. And it can alleviate your guilt knowing you look like a complete idiot doing baby talk, thereby deflecting the awkward moment of lack of praise into a moment of self-deprecating behavior.

2. Make up a good lie you know. No one knows for sure what religion is true; we just know that we think is true.
3. Spread the belief. Type up a bible of made up stories including the big lie of the main person you worship for your belief.
4. Act like you really love the belief you really think it. Your cultrue should be as big as a belief as Christian or Hindu.

Tips
• If you want to make a language, make sure it sounds cool. Try not to make it like gibberish, and make sure you do not sound like a crazy person.
• Try to have fun!

Warnings
• Depending on your language or culture, people might think you are crazy so make it cool and sense.

How to Isolate Your Boyfriend o_O

How to Be a Maggot

The Term "Maggot" doesn't mean those icky little creatures, no, they mean you are the heaviest-metal type of fan. The term "Maggot" came from the drummer from Slipknot, Joey Jordison. He created it for a fan, and then it caught on.

Steps
1. Listen To Metal Bands Like: Slipknot, Murderdolls, Lamb of god, kOrn and other artists.
2. Wear shirts, hats and other clothing.
3. Don't let being a maggot let your grades go down. Being a Maggot can be cool, but good grades will help the parents buy you CD's and other Band Items.
4. Don't be a low Maggot, like a series of bands, you can have a favorite, but if you like one, you'll never find another (Slipknot and Disturbed are cool.)
5. If you go to concerts, don't get into fights.
6. Have a specific band member that you like
7. Learn an instrument. Drums and guitar is the first thing. But if you like Nu-Metal, learn Turn-Tables.
8. Start a band! What a better way to become a maggot!

Tips
• Maggots look scary, with the face paint and the fauxhawks, you can be a maggot and still look like you.
• The Maggot will find you. If you force yourself to be a maggot, you won't like yourself at all.
• Don't listen to crap-metal. Stuff that only goes "YYYYAAAAAAAHHHHHH" isn't that good. Metal with actual lyrics are insane.
• If your parents ask you, "why do you like Metal so much? It's for idiots!"
• Say "why do you listen to (they're genre of music)?" and you will stop them straight in their tracks. If you think that's going too far, simply say "Why don't you?"

Warnings
• Going to concerts sound like fun, but it can hurt. At every concert, the chances are a moshpit will happen several times .
• Don't let the Maggot bring you grades down, that isn't cool.
• Don't use drugs!
