7 Hacks That Are Actually Genius And 7 That No One Should Ever Attempt

I'm always looking for ways to make my life easier. So I don't have to tell you that #LifeHacks are typically my go-tos.

However, as it turns out, not all hacks are created equal. There are those who are real lifesavers, and there are others that are pretty much useless. I'm about to share with you a bit of both.

1. This Toothbrush Hack

Who else struggles to thread a needle. I have to admit it's getting harder for me. But I had no idea you could use a toothbrush like this to assist you. Have you done this before? Did it work for you?

This Toothpaste Dispenser Failure

Okay, let me get this straight. This person squeezed all their toothpaste into a container, mixed it with Listerine, and capped it up. Then they got a dispenser to apply it to the toothbrush. Why? What's the point here?

2. This Umbrella Sock Idea

If you've ever lost the cover of your umbrella, don't worry about it. Just grab a sock and pull it over it to instantly come up with a new cover for it. Isn't that such a cute idea?

This Lazy Man's Sock Hack

How many times have you put on your sock only to realize it had a hole in it? I hate when that happens. However, I would either sew it or buy a new pair. I don't think I would resort to this, lol.

3. This Genius Hack

This lady just came up with a life hack we should all take a note of here. She rigged this up to stop the big spoon from falling into the bowl, and I think it's pretty genius, no?

This Crappy Faucet Fix

Something tells me that the person who came up with this should have turned the spoon upside down. That way, if the water hits it, it doesn't spray them in the face, crotch, and roof at the same time. Oh my!

4. This Grilled Cheese Warming Hack

If you are craving a grilled cheese sandwich but don't have access to a kitchen, I've got a real lifehack for you. Just get out your iron and it'll warm up just fine, ha, ha!

This 'Not So Bright' Idea

If you guessed this person's cooking skills were at a college student level, you would be correct. I don't know about you, but there has to be a better way to keep your food warm, no?

5. This Onion Chopping Hack

We cook with onions a lot, so I know how annoying it is when you start cutting and then begin to cry. That's why I love what this lady came up with here, and now I need a ski mask.

This Ridiculous Idea

I know the ski mask may seem like going overboard. But anything is better than putting plastic wrap on your face like this guy. Honestly, I seriously doubt it works, and frankly, I don't care to find out. Not to mention that no one should do this because it's a suffocation risk!

6. This Moving Hack

My mom told me about this packing hack a few years ago. When we were moving, I decided to implement it, and I've got to tell you it worked like a charm. It's such a time-saver for sure.

This Silly Plastic Backpack Idea

Truth be told, I used to do this with plastic bags as a kid, but it was a total joke. So I can't believe somebody thinks this is such a groundbreaking hack. It will fall apart on you sooner than you think, ha, ha!

7. This Cell Phone Hack

If you often find yourself with your cell phone and no wallet, you might want to do this. Hide some cash behind your phone case or in the battery compartment, just in case you ever forget your wallet. Nice!

This Dumb Cell Phone Idea

Can you believe somebody actually thought putting a cell phone in a glass of water to magnify their screen was a good idea? Um, I think not. People, do not try this at home at any cost.

See what I told you?

Clearly, there are some clever folks out there, and then there are those who just fail. Which one are you? That's what I would like to know, hee-hee. I'd like to think that I would be one of the geniuses — at least, I hope so.
