My favourite part is when the the cop looks at the road with very smoothly flowing traffic and no accidents or fireballs or beheadings and says "Look at these maniacs, every single one of them is speeding"

In all seriousness: I'm upset that this man will most likely end up as a registered sex offender for the rest of his life due to "indecent exposure", even though according to the police report they entered the shed and closed the door behind them.

He didn't willingly expose himself to anyone, and now he's gonna pay for…

I got this one from lifehacker years ago, guess everyone forgot about it:

Effective fruit fly trap: apple cider vinegar in a small bowl, with 5 drops of liquid dish soap. Vinegar no longer has surface tension because of soap, flies go for a drink but can't float on surface, and drown.

Of all the the fruit fly traps I've…

(This would be so much easier to explain with pictures, but alas I no longer own a dishwasher so...)

Another way to do this is to take an elastic band that's 1/4-1/2 inch wide, and 3-4 inches long limp, and stretch it between two of the stick dealies (from front to back). You can then put the wine glass over one of…

Wow. I built one of these from scratch using some WAY less attractive materials. It works but it's ugly as hell. Wish I'd seen this post a few months ago...

I built one of these to go inside my cupboard. Really it was just to give them a place to drip dry without getting in the way on the counter top. I put a little tray beneath them that catches the drippings

You should probably update the original story then

I thoroughly read Gawker and Lifehacker and io9 and Jezebel and Gizmodo on a daily basis, and I've never clicked on ad by mistake. I recognize them for what they are and ignore them. It ain't hard.

Hey gang: ads are what makes your internet experience free. Quit griping and get over it

THANK GOD. This feature used to exist and it went away. So glad it's back cuz I share A LOT with Dropbox.

Thanks. I wonder if the same logic could be used for bullets: shoot someone 5 times, that's 5 counts of attempted murder. I don't see why not...

For me it's the kidnapping part. Does it count as kidnapping every time he brings them back outside after he takes them out for a walk in the back yard?

I'm a nerd for details and I'd love see the breakdown of how they arrived at such an exact number as 139 counts of rape and 177 counts of kidnapping.

YUUUUUP. With all the Ryan Gosling worship going on, no one ever mentions this show, which I watched all the damn time

I could see money cards easily rotating out as the package is jostled around in the pocket. Rubber band wallet is the way to go, trust me

Hey I started using an elastic wallet after reading that. And guess what? A) IT'S AWESOME, and B) I don't think I ever would have thought of it if it weren't for Lifehacker.

If you're stuck with no fancy props and you don't care about looks, just light that sucker on fire, blow out the flame, spit on your fingertips and roll the freshly melted plastic into a new aglet. Ugly, yes. Job done, also yes.

Hey Chevy drivers do it too:

Quadruple parked Chevy

My wife, who is insane, prefers to omit the chili powder when making chili.

Oh, and BEANS FTW
