Not everyone lives near a high end organic supermarket. It'd cost me more money in gas to go to either of those stores than to just walk down the street and buy Hershey's.

Just have your valet, butler, or some other manservant go get your chocolate for you. Jesus Christ, you loving peasant.

In fact, forget the chocolate. Just have chili with bacon.

The really stupid thing is that if memory serves Mythbusters proved that you literally can't ignite gas with a cellphone. It just doesn't happen. Smoking near gas, however, is incredibly stupid.

Cigarettes can't ignite gasoline.

How long are you spending on the toilet? Except when I've been sick, I've never taken long enough to make bringing reading material worthwhile.

When somebody spends 30 minutes in the toilet it's because they spend 2 minutes making GBS threads and 28 minutes not being at work. I'm unsure how this math is confusing to you.

As a change of pace, this is actually super useful. Just make sure you punch the holes a couple inches up, in case a bag ever leaks.

Magic Hate Ball posted:

Not all garbage cans do this, I'm sure, but sometimes, usually with a really full bag, the bag will create a seal around the edge of the can, which means when you pull it out you're creating a weak vacuum on the bottom. Then you go to lift the bag out and the whole can comes up with it, then slowwwwllyy slides off as air seeps in. Good ol #psychics.

Yeah, this. As a nice side effect it also eliminates the occasional annoyance of air being trapped under a new empty bag, preventing it from fully expanding.

The reason Goodwill acts so shady is that Goodwill is a for-profit company. Look it up some time.
If you're gonna donate something yourself, give it to an actual charity, not those asshats.

This is internet bullshit and is debunked every time it does the clickbait rounds on Facebook. The stores function in order to turn a profit, yeah, but that's because they need to actually have money to spend on the charity programs that are the reasons they exist.

The obvious cutlery life hack is the only utensil you really need is a spoon with a small part of it sharpened to an edge. Forks and sporks are just ruined spoons and knives are nice, but why not multitask with a sharp spoon?
