    In life, you frequently have to rip the metaphorical bandaid off. Ripping the actual bandaid off is just a waste of arm hair.

    Wear two pairs of thick socks while you're doing it so they aren't too snug. Those boots were made for walkin', not limping.

    4. Dust off your keyboard with your hair dryer on the cold setting.

    Or just stop eating over your computer. That's always an option.

    5. Blow it on the hottest setting to shrink plastic cellophane wrap so it looks semi-professional.
