An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.

I'm not much for shopping or fashion but I realized my closet had a bunch of literal decade plus old button downs and sweaters and such I haven't worn in many years.

I bagged a few for trash that are beat up, bagged some for donation, and vacuum-space saver bagged the few worth keeping but currently uninteresting.

So nice to not have to wrestle to get useful, regularly worn things stored in my pretty-small closet.

What brand of vacuum bags? Every one I've tried ends up leaking.

A random Amazon brand but it has the vacuum port on it... I try to ensure they aren't over stuffed.

I guess I've been lucky, I just checked a few I used a few months ago and they are still flat.

I store them under the bed so I guess if they puffed up there isn't much that could happen

Ah yes I need to do this too and put away the stuff I no longer use, thanks for the reminder!
