I don't think anyone ever doubted if it worked or not. The problem is that apparently he doesn't know that electric pencil sharpeners exist.

There was a time that I'd say that no one is this stupid, but that was before the Trump campaign.

I was out with a few friends the other night and watched some teenage barwoman with awe as she twisted the corkscrew in, jammed the bottle between her legs and just started loving yanking as hard as she could, took like 30 seconds and was pretty embarrassing to watch. (it was one of the kinds with the "anchor" that hooks onto the lip of the bottle - http://i.imgur.com/Ao68dEe.jpg) anyway we giggled about it a bit and that was that. 2nd bottle of wine came a bit later on but thankfully she'd found a solution in the interim. She asks the slightly older barman to open the bottle while she noted down some orders and he proceeded to do the same loving thing. The video of the guy using a SHOE to open a bottle was faster than both of them

Exactly. I'd like to see how many pencils he could sharpen in a minute if he also had to walk down to the garage to get his drill, come back and put the super sharpener together instead of just reaching into the desk drawer and grabbing a normal one. Also lol at how he acts like he invented the shaving-catching container.

Speaking of sharpeners I saw a video today about converting an EOS lip balm egg into a pencil sharpener. Because that's at all easier or cheaper than just buying a small sharpener itself.

It might, actually, there was a period of months where my family loving scoured every store we could find that would conceivably carry school supplies and not a one of them had a single pencil sharpener. Pencils, eraser toppers, little foam sleeves for keeping your horrible claw-like hands from cramping while using pencils, tiny condoms for protecting your pencils while you shove them in your rear end, but not a single goddamn sharpener, electric or otherwise. Wound up going to a craft supply store and shelling out relatively big money for an artist-grade metal sharpener.

Also I kept seeing hacks to make your own EOS lip balm because apparently the american buy-a-new-one mentality somehow doesn't apply to something as cheap and useless as lip balm.

He's deliberately doing the manual sharpening very slowly and that makes me mad. (Because he didn't need to cheat to win but he still chose to cheat.)

The reason they call it a firewire port is that you can actually transmit wirelessly as long as it and the receiving port are hot enough. Get out your blowtorch and watch your transfer speeds soar!

It's only an open flame if the air around the phone isn't saturated with gasoline fumes. Paint works too. Ventilation will ruin the effect, though- be sure to let the room saturate for at least twenty minutes before you start the heating process.
