If your dinner scrapings are too soupy or wet to go in the bin, you can tip the whole thing in the toilet so you don't have to fanny about trying to sieve the noodles and vegetables while decanting it into the kitchen sink.

30 years old when I had dinner at a friend's house and they did it casually like it was obvious.

Me, the first time I realized I could wash pillows. (Only certain types are washable)

"I'm working on my masters and I feel like such a dumbass..."

Never assume someone with an advanced degree knows anything outside of that degree because "they must be smart".

I'm so thrown off by our current shower which legit heats up in 2 seconds. I was so used to waiting like a minute for it to warm up, I built my rituals around that. But this one... it's just hot, like right away. Bizarre

Parenting. You think you’re doing great and you realise at times that some of the thing a you take for granted, you haven’t taught your kids.

Just because they’ve seen you do something a thousand times doesn’t mean they understand why

when I was little I would wait for the water to warm up, then pull the thing to turn on the shower head. But there's like 2 seconds of freezing water in the tube to the shower head so I would have to really quickly pull it, run back to the edge of the shower, and block it with the shower curtain. It had a 50% chance of failure and I did it for years

I remember this thread. One of the responses was from someone who thought that the beep his car made when locking the doors got quieter when activated from further away.

You're not supposed to just stand there and waste that warming-up water, you're supposed to collect it in a watering can and put it on your plants! It's got stuff from having sat in the water heater so it's not the best for drinking but plants don't mind.

I lived the same "realization moment" last year talking to a friend.

I was saying that I need to go home to wash my white undershirts as I only got blacks left (small t-shirt to wear under a shirt and not freeze to death during winter).

He asked me why so I have several colors of undershirts.

Well, black and grey for black or dark colored shirts, white for white or clear colored shirts otherwise you’ll see it behind the fabric, duuuh, are you dumb?

The answer:

Or you can wear white ones under dark shirts as well and it won’t be visible…

🤔🤔🤔😧 FFS dude, why did I never thought of that?

I can understand the shower one, but who tf is insane enough to not use oven mitts or a rag? I'd imagine you'd take a moment to think about the possible solutions before doing something that painful

I didn’t learn until my 40s that if you exhale gently while getting water on your face, none of it goes in your nose.
