walrusman posted:Wasting all that rice to most likely accomplish nothing is just stupid. Oh, it won't accomplish nothing. It is actually worse than nothing. The rice will absorb some of the water, becoming wet goopy starch. Wet rice is more difficult to clean up than water. Since it is difficult to move gooey wet starch, the genius will probably decide to let the rice dry out on its own. But all that damp rice is a perfect medium to grow mold. In the end the mess he has to clean up will be much worse than what he started with.

The "ballpoint pens as chopsticks" thing is tripping me out, because you can get like a hundred pairs of those cheap snap-apart bamboo chopsticks for about $2, or maybe spend a little more (but still under $10) on 10-20 pairs of decent square dishwasher-safe melamine ones like you see in the nicer Chinese restaurants. Really, two to eight dollars to eat noodles and not look like an insane person. Also, actual chopsticks are made of food-grade materials. It's like taping sewing needles to a stick instead of using a plastic fork.

Nah, simply owning a car depreciates the value, which is something a lot of people don't understand. Outside of a few rare exceptions, all cars get less valuable with age, regardless of condition or mileage.

That's because drunkenly crashing into mailboxes tends to have negative effects. Lifehack. Not reporting your auto accidents and driving away before you can be identified keeps your insurance cost low.

It makes sense to just get one cup in its large form if you have several people eating fries. Unless you have a double-dipper in the group.
