What is a Life Pro Tip?

A Life Pro Tip (or an LPT) is a specific action with definitive results that improves life for you and those around you in a specific and significant way.

Keep in mind that an aphorism is not a LPT.

An aphorism is a a short clever saying that is intended to express a general truth or a concise statement of a principle.

Examples of aphorisms:

"A barking dog never bites."

"No snowflake in an avalanche ever feels responsible."

"All stones are broken stones."

From now on, every annoying ad will be a little respite for your eyes and mind.

I hit the back button as often as anything, when I'm blasted with an unskippble ad.

May I also recommend adding deep breathing? A 30 second ad gives you time for two or three deep inhale-hold-exhales.

Man though the Black Mirror nightmare scenario of devices being able to tell when you close your eyes or look away and the ad stops until you're looking. Let's hope we don't get there in real life any time soon.
