When cutting onions, set the cutting board on the stove and turn on the extractor fan. No more tears!

When given the option, read the instructions, and save for future reference. (A URL / bookmark doesn't count as saving unless you control the hostname (including DNS).)

Got some domed glass pot lids but the one you need broke? Simply invert the handle on the next size up and you get a universal lid that fits any pan! Condensation pools in the middle instead of dripping over the sides.

Improve the cold tolerance and immunity by going to sauna during cold days.

Embrace the cold and don't overheat yourself by wearing too many layers.

When go cycling or running don't wear to many clothes, so you won't overheat yourself. You should feel slight cold and the exercise will heat you.

People usually catch flu due to low immunity or overheating and switching between environments of high temperature difference.

I think that flu thing is an old wives tale. You usually get flu because you breathed it in. The association with cold is because during cold weather people spend more time in poorly ventilated areas.

I always read these and go "fuck yeah I could stand to feel like a new bloke as well" and then I remember I don't drink and thus can't quit it either. Fuck the baseline.
