They're like two suicide notes stuffed into a glitter bra

Reminds me of as a kid in the 90s when the nearby city where I had many friends and family had a janky rear end cable company (this was long before the monopolies like Comcast steamrollered in) where the box had analog buttons for like 33 channels and a three way switch so you could in theory have 99 channels on the box. Spice Channel was one of them way at the end, and they had the usual half-rear end video scramble where you could still make everything out half the time, and they had ZERO audio scramble, so you would end up hearing every goddamn thing. It was hilariously inept. As a horny 13 year old in the age before the internet was a real thing that magically delivered porn on demand, this was pretty drat amazing.

My dad had one of those as a holdover from the early 80's. The box itself was a featureless brown box, and the remote was another brown box attached with a long cord and covered in rocker switches.

The cool thing about it was that we could use it in the late 90's to watch pay-per-view wrestling by switching it to the PPV channel and adjusting the fine-tuning dial on the remote box. The picture wasn't perfect but it was comparable to OTA analog TV reception for people living in the sticks. Lifehack: watch TV when bored walla

Because they fill those packets to capacity so if you actually tried to do that you'd get ketchup everywhere.

It actually works fine. I've done this, it is my secret shame.

The scenarios in which this is useful are pretty much "passenger in a car while eating french fries" though, since literally every other time you have french fries its easier to just dump that poo poo out on something.

Open the packet wide enough to stick a fry in. Stick a fry in. Remove fry. Eat.

I read somewhere that you shouldn't use vhs rewinders since they rewind tapes faster than the vcr and do more damage to your tapes.


I heard the Pedialyte thing for hangovers too but I'm scared if I buy some the cashier will know it's for hangovers and judge me.

It's not like children buy their own Pedialyte or something. If you're buying Pedialyte and manage to not buy like lube, condoms and anal beads at the same time, the cashier will think that you're buying it for a child.

Alternatively, cashiers don't give a gently caress what you buy as long as you pay for it and don't some their jobs any harder than they need to be.

You can make toilet paper last twice as long if instead of crumpling it or folding it end-over-end, you add a half twist to form it into a mobius strip. That way you have one single side that's twice is long to wipe with!
