We all have habits we never question, but what if I told you you’ve been doing things wrong your whole life? From using bobby pins to charging your phone, here are 10 everyday mistakes—and how to fix them!

1. Holding a Burger Wrong 🍔

🚫 Wrong Way: Gripping it with all your fingers on top and thumbs underneath.
✅ Right Way: Flip it! Hold the top bun with your thumbs and pinkies underneath—it keeps everything in place, so your toppings don’t fall out. Game changer!

2. Using Bobby Pins Backward 💁‍♀️

🚫 Wrong Way: Flat side against your hair.
✅ Right Way: Wavy side down! The waves grip your hair better and keep the pin secure all day.

3. Microwaving Food Unevenly 🍕

🚫 Wrong Way: Placing food in the center of the plate.
✅ Right Way: Push your food to the edge of the plate. Microwaves heat from the outside in, so this ensures even warming!

4. Charging Your Phone All Night 🔋

🚫 Wrong Way: Plugging it in overnight (it damages battery life over time).
✅ Right Way: Charge it between 20% and 80% for better battery health. Also, use low-power mode while charging for a faster boost!

5. Peeling Bananas from the Wrong End 🍌

🚫 Wrong Way: Peeling from the stem.
✅ Right Way: Pinch the bottom tip and pull. Monkeys do this, and they know best! No mush, no struggle.

6. Using a Plunger Wrong 🚽

🚫 Wrong Way: Using a flat-bottomed plunger on a toilet.
✅ Right Way: Use a flange plunger (the one with an extra rubber flap). Flat plungers are for sinks, not toilets!

7. Brushing Your Teeth Right After Eating 🦷

🚫 Wrong Way: Brushing immediately after meals (especially after acidic food).
✅ Right Way: Wait at least 30 minutes! Brushing too soon wears down your enamel when your teeth are in a weakened state.

8. Breaking Off a Toblerone Bar 🍫

🚫 Wrong Way: Pulling the pieces outward.
✅ Right Way: Push the pieces toward the bar instead—it snaps off perfectly every time!

9. Sleeping with the Wrong Pillow Position 🛏️

🚫 Wrong Way: Using one big pillow that lifts your head too high.
✅ Right Way: Use a thinner pillow or place one under your knees to support your spine and avoid back pain!

10. Tying Your Shoelaces Wrong 👟

🚫 Wrong Way: The standard way, which loosens throughout the day.
✅ Right Way: Use the "loop, swoop, and pull" method for a stronger hold. Also, tying your laces in the opposite direction of how you normally do makes them stay tied longer!
