When cutting onions, set the cutting board on the stove and turn on the extractor fan. No more tears!
I worked at a factory that produced food with onion as one of the main ingredients. The best trick was to breathe with the mouth. Breathing with my nose would always make my eyes cry.
Got some domed glass pot lids but the one you need broke? Simply invert the handle on the next size up and you get a universal lid that fits any pan! Condensation pools in the middle instead of dripping over the sides.
I always read these and go "fuck yeah I could stand to feel like a new bloke as well" and then I remember I don't drink and thus can't quit it either. Fuck the baseline.
