有什么看起来蠢得不行但其实非常管用的事儿？

flyting1881 , fzeo：

If you want someone you don't know well to like you, ask them for a small favor.

如果你想让不太了解的人喜欢你，就请他们帮个小忙。

​

When I get new coworkers I go out of my way to ask them for something little, like borrowing a stapler or giving an opinion on something I'm working on.

当我遇到新同事时，我会不辞辛苦地向他们提出一些小要求，比如借一个订书机，或者对我正在做的事情发表意见。

Then they feel like they can ask me for something next time they need help, and soon I've tricked them into thinking I'm a nice person.

然后他们觉得下次需要帮助的时候可以向我要些东西，很快他们就会被我骗得以为我是个好人。

I don't know why it works but it does.

我不知道它为什么，但确实有效。

ElBeatch , American Cyclery Official：

Putting a piece a duct tape on your bike seat so people won't steal it. Who wants to try and sell a potentially ripped bike seat, let alone buy one.

在你的自行车坐垫上贴一块胶布，这样人们就不会偷了。谁会想卖掉一个可能破掉的自行车座，更不用说买了。

boyvsfood2 , Suzy Hazelwood：

For me personally, I make a to-do list but put like 3 or 4 things that are just mind-numbingly simple. I knock them out, cross them off, feel productive, and feel motivated to hammer out the tougher pieces.

就我个人而言，我会列一个待办事项清单，但会列出3到4件简单得不行的事情。我把它们做了就划掉，看起来感觉效率立马高了，并有动力去做完更困难的部分。

Telling your little kids to clean their room is a guaranteed way to get them to spend the day playing with their toys.

告诉你的孩子去打扫他们的房间，绝对是一个保证能让他们花一天时间玩玩具的方法。

colmatrix33 , mluotio83：

If you think someone is watching you in a crowd, yawn. If they yawn too, they are watching you. Yawning is contagious

如果你认为有人在人群中看着你，打个哈欠。如果他们也打哈欠，说明他们在看你。打哈欠是会传染的

worrymon , nastya_gepp：

Smile when you talk on the phone and you sound much happier than you really are.

打电话的时候微笑，听起来会让人觉得你快乐很多。

Erycius:

If you always forget if you have locked the doorclosed the ovencharged your smartphone... do something stupid after you did the thing you're about to forget. You won't remember the actual locking, but you'll remember the stupid thing, and then you'll know you did the thing. Stupid things include doing a little dance or pirouette, singing a small song (rickroll yourself!) or saying something really stupid like I'd like to eat a towel right now!.

如果你总是忘记锁门、关烤箱、给智能手机充电……做了一件你会忘记的事情之后，再做一件愚蠢的事情。你不会真的记得锁没锁，但你会记得这件愚蠢的事情，然后你会知道你做了。愚蠢的事情包括跳一小段舞或单脚旋转，唱一小首歌或者说一些非常愚蠢的话，比如我现在就想吃毛巾!
