Vaseline or petroleum jelly, for the crafter: put a smear of it around the threads of your glue jars, like Mod Podge, so that the lids will come off easily as you use it, nothing worse than a glue jar (bottle, tube, etc.) that won't come off.

Ya'll just helped me get rid of 10 dead batteries in my battery keeper! Thanks! The kids had fun helping me test them.

As for the can tab, we used to have strips on the cans that you tore off and made chains out of them. The longer the chain, the more you need rehab.

Joke of the day:
Have you heard of the kidnapping at school?
*the teacher woke him up*

The fan one is really gonna help me out. Cause when it's hot, my fan is useless. Never tried fiddling with the switch.

He should have given a warning about changing the direction of your fan blades. If you don't clean dust off and change directions it flings dust ALL OVER the room! Lol something I found out the hard way long ago 👍

My bedroom fan actually is more effective cooling me off going clockwise because of the way my room is shaped.

I changed the direction of my fan and actually blew cool air and this is awesome because my fan has been blowing hot air on me for 5 years

20:26 okay, I'll take you up on that and put one here, which I've found extremely useful as a parent.

If you look at most standard baby onesies, you'll notice they don't have sewn up shoulders, but the fabric covering the shoulder area is formed by two flaps of fabric instead. These are meant to be used if you have extra squirmy babies, or in the event of a diaper leak. When that happens, you can simply insert two fingers on either shoulder and pull outward to expand the neck of the onesie, which you can then slide down the baby's body rather than pull it over their head and risk getting their face or hair dirty.

When I ate Tic Tacs back in junior and senior high school, the packaging did NOT have a "Tic Tac Dispenser". I'm 47, turning 48 tomorrow. Ahhh, the memories of school. 🏫

[maggiereeves]

"next time you sip from a can" only makes me think how nasty, dirty the tops are of any can.

[kylieg]

When you put 1 tic tac on the lip of the container you can also hold it back and fling it into your mouth. Fun little trick

[bumbydakine]

"That's not all Vaseline can do" ... funny

4:05 I remember ripping a piece of paper while trying to erase pen marks. 🤣

The one most people don't know is about aluminum foil. The "foggy" side is the side that faces the food. That side is foggy because the foil has been treated with a non-stick compound to make it easier to separate the foil from what was being cooked.

Using that pocket for a pocket watch is genius. But one of my former teachers used that pocket for his guitar pick, and he called it a “pick-pocket”.
