| Team top sheet or team duvet? |
| Once again the youngins are flabbergasting the older generations with their disregard of things they deem unnecessary. There’s always something that gets dropped or altered generation to generation. We learn better ways or technology makes certain things obsolete. But it doesn’t matter how far we’ve come, our beds still need sheets to cover the mattress. |
| The debate is on the use of top sheets, also known as flat sheets. They’re the sheets that keep your body from touching the comforter, most Gen X and Boomers are firmly for the use of top sheets as a hygiene practice. The idea being that the top sheet keeps your dead skin cells and body oils from dirtying your comforter, causing you to have to wash it more often. |

| Who knew? |
| 18-year-old Twitter user Aimee recently took to Twitter to ask something most of us have probably wondered. |
| Speculated about without even realizing it: “Serious question, what the fu*k is this for?” she asked, next to a photo of that handle on the ceiling of every car that we all knew about and probably wondered about but never thought to even ask for some reason!? |

| This explains why mixing blue and red paint always gave us “muddy eggplant” instead of vibrant purple as kids. |
| One of the first things most of us learned in art class was that red, yellow and blue are the primary colors. All other colors could be made from some combination of these three, we were told, plus black and white for tints and shades. We probably even remember mixing various amounts of red, blue and yellow together to make the secondary colors of orange, green and purple. |
| Except making purple was always a problem, wasn’t it? Did anyone ever make a vibrant purple mixing red and blue together? No. It usually came out a sort of muddy eggplant color instead of the bright iris purple we were looking for. As artis Anna Evans shared in a recent Facebook post, “I used to get very frustrated trying to mix purples, they always came out the colour of dried blood. It was not purple.” After hours of research on color theory, she added magenta to her palette and never looked back. |
| There’s a reason for that. We’ve basically had the primary colors for pigments wrong. |

| “Compound interest isn’t just something to do with money. It works with exercise, too.” |
| Have you ever heard advice and thought, “That’s too good to be true?” As we all know, that usually means it doesn’t work. However, sometimes, there are simple and easy solutions to problems that once seemed impossible. We just have to look for answers in the right place. |
| A Reddit user who has since deleted their account reached out to the online forum and asked people to share their life hacks that at first seem to be fake but are a “true lifesaver.” They shared everything from tech tricks to bring back dead laptops to easy ways to trick ourselves into developing powerful, “atomic” habits. |
| Here are 15 of the best responses to the question: What lifehack seems to be fake, but is it a true lifesaver? |
