Oh boy I found a top hack of 2015 on my facebook wall. Turn a lotion bottles in cumbersome cellphone charging station that constantly use electricity! And use the left over greasy Pringles can to hold cotton pads to rub on your face. And much much more! And you better believe all these hacks take forever to make. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1727998934097387&id=1630195383877743 (Sorry it seems to only be a facebook video)

I'd be very happy if they could make a horizontal bed for RVs and stuff that you could safely strap into and sleep in, so you'd still be protected in case of a crash. Mostly because when I'm not driving on road trips, I like to sleep through the boring stuff.

Karma Monkey posted:Little Orphan Apple sounds catchier, but I've never seen an apple flavored ice pop. I don't know how many people here have had an Otter Pop in the last few years but I guess at some point they changed their recipe. They now use apple juice as the base for all the flavors, so every single flavor ends up tasting like cheap apple juice. The generic ice pops are much better.

Yeah, Fla-Vor-Ice is the brand you want to look for. They usually come in way too big of boxes, but with lots of flavors and all good.

why the gently caress did I just watch a guy use a leafblower on snow? That's not a lifehack, that's common sense. Lifehack is when I turned my leaf mulcher upside down, put on a hopper, and used it to blow salt all over the driveway, sidewalk, and frozen roof, without leaving my lawnchair.

Jerry Cotton posted:I just don't use softener because I absolutely do not care about my towels being soft. Everything else seems soft enough as well Should we just throw towels away when they stop being soft? I don't mean "this no longer feels like a fluffy cloud being draped around my body by tiny cherubs", but "it's so stiff and dry that it almost feels like a slightly conditioned hedgehog pelt, and it's not very absorbent either". I doubt fabric softener would help in the latter case anyway, though.

Weldon Pemberton posted:Should we just throw towels away when they stop being soft? Huh? I throw my towels away when they get too thread-bare to effectively dry my naked sexy body. I have a terrycloth towel I remember having as a kid (because my grandma would spread it out on the floor for me to nap on) 30-33 years ago and apart from one darned small tear it works fine despite not being soft It's not exactly rocket surgery: do your clothes get wet when you get dressed after a shower? If the answer is yes, your towel is not working.

If you use fabric softener on your towels you damage the absorbent properties of towels, because the softener ends up where the water would go or something. Just don't do it.

I doubt fabric softener would help in the latter case anyway, though. If anything towels should get softer as they age. All those fuzzy broken fibers. Do you have really hard water? It's possible you're getting some kind of mineral build up, I guess? Vinegar in the rinse cycle may help.

Not gonna lie, that sounds like a good shopping time, and for a bit I was thinking "I hope I have a need to visit Ikea at some point in the future." Then I realized I was romanticizing flat-pack furniture.
