10 100-Year-Old Life Hacks That Are Surprisingly Useful Today

Who can’t use some extra help these days? While the term “life hacks” may be a modern day term the idea is not so new. As long as humans have been alive they’re been trying to find more efficient ways to get things done. One company thought it would be a great marketing idea to include “life hack” cards in their products. This company was Gallaher Cigarettes. Starting in 1902 this Irish cigarette maker included a two sided card with each pack of cigarettes they sold as a way to help their customers deal with those little difficulties of life. What might be surprising to people today is that these simple “hacks” are just as useful in 2018 as they were over 100 years ago.

Imagine the musical landscape without the gorgeous songwriting of Simon & Garfunkel. Think of the way generations of musicians have been influenced by Steely Dan. And would the ‘80s have sounded so anthemic without Tears for Fears or Hall & Oates?

Duos have been instrumental in some of rock’s biggest musical evolutions, from the folk invasion of the ‘60s and ‘70s (Crosby & Nash) to the post-punk revival of the early 2000s (The White Stripes).

A female witness told cops that she spotted a man--later identified as Timothy Graham, 44--exposing his penis while “masturbating while riding his bicycle” Friday in a parking lot in Indian Shores, a Gulf Coast town south of Clearwater, Florida.
