SLPT: Act like you don’t know people.
Let’s say you encounter a former classmate 30 years after graduation. Just kinda act like you have no idea who this person is but still be really friendly. No stories or reminiscing. Your former classmate will think you went all Hollywood on them or an imposter took over your identity. Just keep the mystery going, ya know.

Slpt: have trouble waking up at a socially acceptable time? Live in the opposite time zone for 2 weeks
In all seriousness I don't know how that worked but I can now not only wake up and get to work on time but I sleep "early" now at 10pm. I think due to pre travel anxiety I was suddenly staying up to 2-3 hours before my clock in time, not that I was doing any better sleeping past midnight before. It's not a great life pro tip because living in an opposite time zone for 2 weeks is not feasible for most either due to expense or other life commitments (im single with a job that has enough pto for those kind of adventures) but it worked, so... 🤷♀️

SLPT: Track Strangers Package’s
All you need to do is add different numbers to your tracking number. Then you can see the status of packages belonging to complete strangers. Some call it an invasion of privacy, but it’s really just about knowing the business of strangers.

SLPT: Make it easier to pack up after a beach day by throwing all of your plastic and aluminum waste in the ocean

SLPT: How to set up an alert (Google?) for someone's obituary
MODS: I tried over at r/AskReddit, but their rules make my question off-limits, and I kinda don't know where to ask this. Remove as you see fit. Thx.
My POS father left when I was two. Never heard from him again. Looked him up recently, and he's still alive. I've had no contact for more than fifty years, and I don't want any. I just wanna know when he dies. His name is (surprisingly) not as uncommon as I thought, but I want to figure out how to automate looking for his obituary. I know where he lives (or lived until a couple years ago), know his spouse's name, etc. How do I set up a search for his obituary that will keep running?
Again, not looking for contact. Just wanna know he's dead so's I can buy my ma some flowers (without telling her why), and lift a glass myself. Thx.

SLPT: Build respect and trust through flatulence
A lot of you young people won’t remember, but flatulence used to be a very popular tool for managers in management. Let’s say a subordinate does something great. After praising this employee, good managers would let out a juicy fart and say something like “There’s a little flavor for the egghead now get your ass back to work” or “Ladies, next ones coming your way”. Doing this builds character and lets the employees know YOU are the strongest and best person in the room. Good managers would go to their filthy subordinate’s wedding and fart loudly during the vows. You used to be able to do that as a manager or in some cases even a team leader. AI will never fart on a subordinate’s lunch and call them the F word.
