What is a Life Pro Tip?

A Life Pro Tip (or an LPT) is a specific action with definitive results that improves life for you and those around you in a specific and significant way.

An aphorism is a a short clever saying that is intended to express a general truth or a concise statement of a principle.

Examples of aphorisms:

"No snowflake in an avalanche ever feels responsible."

"All stones are broken stones."

I don't know if this is common knowledge, but not all refrigerators nowadays are magnetic. When going out shopping for one, bringing a small fridge magnet can help you easily rule some models out if you care about that.

Though, actually, if you're looking for a fridge with a stainless steel finish, being less attracted to magnets is an indicator of higher-quality stainless steel, and you may want to get one that magnets don't stick to.

Low-quality stainless steel will be more attracted to magnets ... and also more likely to rust. But higher quality, more corrosion-resistant stainless steels are typically less attracted to magnets.
