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."

Dust and kitchen greasy-ness is easier to clean by changing the paper than by scrubbing the hard to reach places...

Eh? I guess? But still...

They tell you to put wax paper on top of your fridge and kitchen cabinets, and throw it away when it gets dirty instead of cleaning.

Yep.

There are times and places for this kind of idea. Maybe covering the tops of cabinets because that material is porous... But why not just paint the porous wood instead? Do it once, and if you use a gloss oil base paint, it'll never need repainting and it's easy to clean.

“Turns out, the waxy surface acts like a magnet to collect the dust and grime”

I hear wax paper gets a strong 5G signal.
