There are many occasions where one may be called upon to give or receive advice on how to be slightly less terrible. Consult this guide on magnanimously giving or receiving constructive criticism:

Giving: Like fire, even the most well-adjusted adult can have trouble handling criticism. Try breaking it to them with the gentleness of a fluffy cloud by expressing your critique in skywriting directly over their outdoor wedding.

Receiving: Adults should shed their egos to accept helpful feedback. To shed your own ego, find the small, copper zipper at the base of your skull and gently guide it upward over the crest of your head. Then, reach underneath your hair and probe for something that feels like a spiky, vibrating marble. Keep your ego safe in a used film canister until you need it later for basketball practice.

Rejecting: If all your friends told you that you were bad at jumping off a bridge, would you automatically believe them? Sometimes even the softest criticism is like a shot from a Nerf gun—you can take the hit if you have to, but always aim away from the face.
