Before today I would have insisted that “there is no such thing as too much bacon” and I would have been willing to die on that hill. I’m shook. I think Claire has just demonstrated that there may indeed be such a thing. I don’t know if the baconier BLT she’s describing is it, but after this description I can now conce…

Super quiet muffler. A nice exhaust note is a pleasure for an enthusiast and loud exhaust is fun for everyone, but if you are spending a significant amount of your day in your car there is something enthralling about having your car deliver its power without making a big production of it. It almost seems magical to…

No PCU? List invalid.

No paper towels, please. They are specifically designed to not fall apart in water, unlike TP that is specifically designed to fall apart in water.

5. Cutting things in your hand instead of on a cutting board. “Never aim a knife at your body.”

4. Using dull knives. You use too much force on the food that might not fare well from it and you are more likely to slip.

I’m going to guess “Squoze an empty water bottle till it popped.”

Peugeot makes the best pepper mill I’ve ever had. The salt mill was crap though.

I either have to pull my shoulders in front of my body till I start cramping or bend over at the waist so I can relax and hang over into the seat space beside me without pushing on my seat…

So, like, how much of that giant stack of money is re-usable?

More shortcuts you say? You mean like this? About a third of these go to specific functions or locations within their respective apps.

“Crunch” is a bit generous. It’s more like “a distinctive chew that definitely was crunch a minute or two ago.” Your brain makes the connection if you’re not analyzing it too hard and interprets it as crunch.

NEVER talk to the police.

Has Fancy Kristen taken on a nom de plume?

Wow, very nice. The writing on this group of submissions is quality. Except Bob. Poor Bob.

I can’t put my finger on it, but this truck has a threatening aura about it.

Some of the easiest we’ve dealt with, and most welcome around the house, is mint. Just carefully dig up a few specimens from the source location - mature but not yet flowering - transplant to the new location in cultivated soil that drains decently, keep moist for a couple weeks. We pretty much neglect it after that…
