Try these helpful hacks to take a whack at that boring old functionality you’ve got going on. Spice it up! This week’s contributors have chosen to remain anonymous, but all work from the same office.

  1. If you cannot avoid running 32 miles, do it with 8-10 pounds of water and gear on your back, a slight stomach bug, a somewhat-boring audiobook, and rapidly blistering toes. Have two small people on small bicycles chase you for the last quarter mile.

  2. If you meet strangers on the playground and you and your sister have a nice time with them for 20 minutes, wait until they have departed and their stroller-train is half way down the block outside the playground fence to yell at the top of your lungs WAIT!! WAIT!! and then, when they slowly manage to bring their ambling caravan of children and gear about, follow up with WE WANT HUGS!!
