I’m seeing quite a few defensive responses, so I’ll add to the validation of your point.

*HUGE* fan of garlic! I personally don’t have alot of time for meal prep/creation most days, but this sounds delicious. Once this is made, how long does it keep? It would be easier for me to make a batch, jar it and use it occasionally.

So far it’s been able to identify anything mainstream. Of course, if you switch to a streaming service playing Electro House and there’s not a mainstream mix going, it probably won’t have a clue...and it will state that.

Nicely put. That sums it up better than I ever could have done.

It depends on what I’m doing with the avocado. If I want cubes, once I half it and remove the pit, I slice it with a paring knife while still in the skin, the peel the skin to leave only the cubes. Otherwise, if I’m using it for quac, the spoon method is always the first choice.

It appears that some people expect the shower head to do all the work. God forbid, we move our bodies.

I, too, prefer my aloe plant.

When this happens, I usually apply cold water first to help cool the windows down, but this only lasts for a minute or two, so you have to be quick.

Not that I hope I have another sunburn in my life, but if I do, I will try this. Thanks for the tip!

That has bothered me for years. Why would someone want to use a product that claims to help, but yet makes it worse? I’m baffled. Why don’t some people read labels? Alcohol is BAD for skin that’s already burned/dried...it will only dry it out worse.

Electronics (low-voltage) - temporary jumper until you can solder in a wire for a permanent fix.

I can’t remember how many toilets I’ve fixed with paper clips. I used to do part-time maintenance for the apartment building I lived in. So many other temporary fixes, too.

MacGyver must be so proud right now that he’s teared up.

I always enjoy great articles from all of Kinja’s contributors, but this is one of the best I’ve read in a while. Thank you, Thorin.

Spring/Summer has an annual ritual in our house - a cup of apple cider vinegar with a dash of dishsoap mixed in to get the fruit flies. Organic cider seems to work MUCH better, but needs more frequent changing due to the smell of it going bad faster.

Much more informative than a ‘nod’.

DEET is safe when used properly (Pro tip: don’t drink it).

I work for a retailer that offers the same type of discount for employees and family members (defined *CLEARLY* in the employee handbook as those who you can claim on your tax return). I have had quite a few people ask me to get them items with my discount, and they get offended with me when I tell them I cannot do it…

Unlike the ‘youngsters’ replying without a clue, (being the age of only 39) I, too, still *talk* to people. It’s a lost art. Phone bling is not a high priority for us *old farts*, just like fixing a Social Security system that’s going bankrupt or stop printing/digitizing money and causing more super-inflation are not…
