So I bought a Ninja blender tonight, started unpacking it and notice a note about how the blades are very sharp and loosely packed. Whatever I'm an adult, I'm sure I can take a thing out of a box.

Oh, if we're telling personal anecdotes for schadenfreude, I spent an hour trapped in a bedroom last night by a faulty door handle that was being installed. Make sure the latch actually retracts when you turn the handle before closing the door, kids!  Fortunately for me but unfortunately for freude, we forced it open two bent files and a scratched doorframe later rather than having to break it down.

I was visiting for christmas and upstairs of them. They made a terrible racket but I ignored them because they do that all the time. For hours. I felt so bad when I found out. I'd just been stomping on the floor and shouting back at them.

I had a guy in my phone repair store the other day who fell off one of those and somehow broke the camera on his iPhone 6. Broke it real good too - the camera, front camera, and flash all died, and they're three separate parts. I couldn't get it working again despite replacing all three. So, "irreparably damaging your phone" is something else those can cause.

Is the iPhone 6 camera the same style as the 6s? I have that one and they redesigned the phone so now the lens is sticking out from the phone body itself when it used to be totally flush and smooth. I can see it getting damaged really easily if you don't put a case on it.

I suspect that wouldn't hold up in court because they could argue that the police don't arrest jews or muslims who are photo'd wearing their headgear but then do not wear it all the time. On the other hand this is russia where a man can win the presidency with 120% of the vote and claim it wasn't rigged so yeah.

A relative's house had such an absurd rat infestation at their garden that we would set up 5 spring traps, wait around five minutes, hear 5 snaps almost simultaneously, take off the rats and set them up again. This went on for around 2 hours. I can't even understand how much that would cost in single use glue traps. There's some schadenfreude here as their son adopted a pair of cats and the parents made him put them up for adoption again a few months ago.

I believe the idea of the glue trap is the animal won't die right away and instead start screaming, which should in theory scare the other animals away.

Use spring traps, cut the heads off and mount them on tiny plaques as a warning to the others.

Make sure the latch actually retracts when you turn the handle before closing the door, kids! Most modern bathroom doors have special "lift-off" hinges where you can just grab the closed door, give it a lift and the whole thing should just pop right out of the frame. They're so EMTs can haul your rear end out of there when you give yourself a brain haemorrhage squeezing out a hard dump.

Bedroom, unless you just meant it as a general PSA, and while you had no way of knowing, the door was far from modern. We considered removing the whole door, but the hinges were sealed by decades-old paint.

She took that remarkably well. Kudos to her.

I'm amazed she didn't mess up her left ankle. That could have gone very wrong very quickly. Of course, that's the bad thing about being that flexible.

Glue traps are useful if you have mice that are small and light enough to not set off spring traps, and one trap can capture multiple mice at once because another mouse already being stuck to it doesn't seem to warn off other mice at all. Almost as if mice are dumb as hell or something. They can be cruel, but only if you leave the mice to die slowly or oil them up and watch as they struggle for freedom for some reason instead of just killing them after they're caught.

Almost as if mice are dumb as hell or something. yo put the peanut butter in the folded over bit of the spring trap and on the underside so they have to push on it. Also put the snap side facing a wall so they have to come in from the side.

You don't come downstairs in the morning to find copious amounts of rodent blood all over your kitchen counter because the snap trap cut off a limb instead of cleanly killing the animal, which will now probably die in your walls.

They do something mind boggling like being able to open the door to a closet, grab their leash and be waiting at the door with it when you get home. Then not 2 hours later run head-first, full speed, into the only tree in a large backyard.
