Want to cut a watermelon open without a knife? Take a quarter, make a small incision, and karate chop it in half. It seriously works!

my wife had an argument several years ago with a racist MIT undergrad who was temping for her where this girl actually claimed you could always spot really ghetto black people because they spent all of their money on nice clothes
my wife declined to renew the temp's contract IIRC, hopefully teaching this young woman the critical lesson that telling your boss she must be ghetto because she has on nice clothes is not a good career move
― OH MY GOD HE'S OOGLY (DJP), Tuesday, 20 August 2013 20:05 (ten years ago) link

Coffee ice cubes? They keep your iced coffee cold without watering it down. I don't know what the fuck drinking beer through a straw is supposed to do, but in high school some people said it got you drunk faster.

in a world where this http://gamescene.com/The_Urinal_Game.html exists nothing surprises me
― beans on toast and ghosts (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 20 August 2013 21:41 (ten years ago) link
Hints from Heloise was the real deal, though! Get an ink stain out with hairspray! Get burnt on grime off the bottom of a pan by soaking it overnight with a paste of baking soda and water!
Not dumb shit like put a beer can in a McDonald's cup because you can't interact with the outside world without an alcoholic beverage close to hand at all times.
― Lawyer... SUAVE... (carl agatha), Tuesday, 20 August 2013 21:43 (ten years ago) link
At least 75% of my housekeeping approach is born of Heloise. Get candle wax out of a rug by putting a paper bag on top of the wax stain and ironing it with a warm iron. COME ON that's brilliant.
Also Elmo OTM. Pinterest is like ground zero for this garbage. If you really want to feel the fury, look at their "kids" category.

that urinal game at least has a more complex topology than the tables where you have two choices (inside seat or outside seat)
