I kinda get the impression they're the sort of parents that don't see anything wrong with casual nudity around their kids...

If your oldest of seven kids is eleven years old and you believe a driving force behind putting together this monstrous fortress of a "family bed" is to prevent the younger ones (I assume) from wandering in all whiny in the middle of the night...maybe focus on fixing their bad habits instead.

The exact point he just made in response to someone saying the same thing you did is that you can and should bring entertainment and deliberately dawdle to use it as a chance to relax.

My cousin is bonkers into "attachment parenting," and never misses an opportunity to explain how awesome it is and how emotionally healthy her two year-old is gonna be once he becomes an adult as a result of it. The core concept behind it is sound enough ("spend as much time with your kid as you can so that they know you'll be there for them later in life"), but she goes completely overboard with it: she believes that if you put your toddler down for a nap and you aren't within arms length of it for the duration, you have effectively abandoned your child to the elements and have doomed it to a lifetime of emotional and psychological distress. Parenting concepts get weird fast nowadays. Greatbacon posted:or this is stupid. stop it.

When somebody spends 30 minutes in the toilet it's because they spend 2 minutes making GBS threads and 28 minutes not being at work. I'm unsure how this math is confusing to you.

Neither parent looks like the err, active type, so I assume this solution came about because they're lazy as poo poo. Lifehack - actually parent your children properly and they'll do amazing stuff like sleep in their own beds.

Different people take different amounts of time to poop and also poop more or less often than others and this is OK lifehack: don't be a poop about poop lifehack: poop at work and get paid to hang out in the can

When I was a kid, me and my brother played with a sock with our vacuum. Picking up small objects was not the goal. We'd roll the sock over the hose, and turn it on. It'd suck it up but not all the way, and we'd laaauugh...until it suddenly DID suck it up all the way and starting making a loud sound. We quick turned it off, and frightened, reached in and pulled it out. The force had stretched the simple tube sock to twice it's length. On the other hand with this list, that sunblock idea is pretty drat clever.

That vinegar trick is one of the first things I do when I move into a new apartment. It works like a charm, actually. Though if it's a really built-up shower head, leave it on for as long as you can, at least 12 hours. Take it off, run hot water through the shower head, and then scrub with a cleanser and run hot water again.

The walnut thing is real, walnut oil dries very very fast, is food safe and will generally be pretty close to the color of most furniture. You could also just go buy a small container of walnut furniture oil and call it done, but you can get quick results by just rubbing a walnut on a desk or chair. I know it started as a trick shady antiques dealers used to use because it's very hard to detect and it often will just make a bad scratch look like small or insignificant one, which in antiques can be the difference of several hundred dollars. It also doesn't last that long so it will fade out over a few years making it seem like the buyer just made the scratch worse.

I just bought a selection of different shades of brown Derwent coloured pencils. Arguably more expensive than walnuts but also more ergonomic.

If you live where I live, there's so much calcium carbonate buildup in plumbing fixtures you could have near adamantium bones with only one showerhead treatment. No more expensive calcium supplements for me!

The staple remover/key ring and toiler paper roll+wrapping paper ones don't work for poo poo. I've easily taken out knots from plastic bags using that method and I've used the milk carton spade to dig a grave for my hamster.  I'm legitimately curious about the toothpaste one, though.

The toothpaste for car headlights thing does work, I've done it myself with the cheapest whitest toothpaste the supermarket had. Unfortunately it probably won't work anywhere near as well as that image shows and it doesn't do a lot for yellowing either. I also tried a 1-stage commercial product for the same purpose though and it didn't work that much better either so for cost effectiveness the toothpaste wins.

Probably half the boats I've ever been on have had hand bailers made out of Mehukatti jugs. Sometimes a life hack is actually sensible  e: Obviously you cut it another way. Don't rely on a small hollow-handled dust pan for bailing purposes please. 3D Megadoodoo has a new favorite as of 13:50 on Nov 23, 2015 |

Toothpaste has a mild abrasive (which is why it cleans out your teeth so well!) and if your headlight covers are worn down it will polish it up a bit. Ben Krasnow did a video about tooth paste abrasives and the effect on toothbrushes here. But he also said you can clean the metallic scrapes off of ceramic dishes with a solution of hydrogen peroxide and hydrofluoric acid, so maybe he's not the best source of lifehack advice.

So, a lifehack I've always been told is for real is putting toothpaste on a burn. drunkmyfishback tried it on Saturday and insisted it would help because EVERYONE TELLS ME IT WOULD HELP but, no, apparently it did not. It did make my friend minty fresh, though.

You can put toothpaste on subcutaneous pimples, which will dry them out and allow you to pop them with ease. Put it on before you go to sleep, let it dry over night, then pop that mothefucker with glee the next morning. Walla!
