If your phone still hasn’t caught onto the fact that you’re never trying to say “duck,” “ducking,” or “ducker,” I’ve got the perfect tip for you.

Make a new contact in your phone called “f–k f–king f–ker” (only use the actual words and not the censored version).

Next time you try to text some colorful language, your phone won’t try to bring any aquatic birds into the situation.

Speaking of phone tricks, here’s another one you should know.

Most voicemail systems offer people the chance to delete and re-record a voicemail message.

Simply press * and it should reset. (This could have solved so many sitcom conflicts!)

There’s nothing more satisfying than closing all your Internet tabs down when you’re done with them, but it’s the worst when you accidentally close one you’re still using.

Ctrl + Shift + T reopens your most recently closed tab. You’re welcome.

Here’s another keyboard shortcut to keep in mind.

You probably already know that Ctrl + C copies text and Ctrl + V pastes it, but did you know that Ctrl + Shift + V pastes without formatting?

Now you do. You’re welcome.

EVER ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE CAPS LOCK BUTTON WHILE TYPING IN MICROSOFT WORD?

You don’t have to re-type anything! Simply highlight the text and press Shift + F3, and it will make everything lowercase.

Hit it again, and it will capitalize the first letter of every sentence.

Here’s one more computer-related feature you should know about. This one’s about YouTube.
