My great uncle died st 105 and was the inventor of and had patented (in the US) the valve that makes hot and cold water come out of the same faucet. I lived in Victorian buildings in San Francisco and often had the two faucet system; it was awful. Thank goodness for Uncle Dickel ❤
Big deal. My great grandfather invented screw top glass bottles and Owned American can co. Another granddaddy created Bambi. Worked for Walt Disney for 30 years. I'm an established rock and jazz musician. So Who are you? A cheap bragging dirt bag.? Comment only here not posted.
People in general can be brilliantly STUPID AS HELL. I am a emergency service plumber and HVAC business owner/ operator spend 50% of my days in traffic. People are so inconsiderate and try to bully this 3 ton box truck...when i move everyone gets the hell out of my way!!!
The best use for that over ripe banana is to put it in a brownie mix. It enhances the chocolate flavor. 2 per mix also work and make really nicely moist brownies.
When I was younger, I remember adults using the expression, "mind your P's and Q's. It seemed like a more polite way of saying 'mind your own business', or 'behave yourself'. But I never really knew. 40 years later at a party I heard someone telling the story. The expression was started and used by British bartender's, someone drinking beer and getting a little loud or out of hand were told to "Mind their Pints and Quarts", the 2 sizes of containers beer was served in. Who knew!! LOL
by British (bartender's) = bartender is? The plural for bartender is bartenders. Also it was not so much about those getting loud or out of hand, it was primarily in reference to those who were running a tab to 'mind their P's & Q's' they are going to have to account for and pay in full, which they can easily lose track of when the drinks are flowing freely.
I was taught it was derived from the typesetting industry. Typesetters put little metal letters (called “sorts”) in a frame to make the words that get printed so you can then read books, magazines and newspapers. They have to do it backwards, though, so it will appear the proper way when printed. When setting these sorts backwards, “p” looks like “q” and “q” looks like “p” and it’s easy to make mistakes. Ergo “mind your Ps and Qs”. Also- the typesetter had to hope he didn’t run out of the most common letters (e, l, t, n etc.) before he reached the end of the page. If he did, you can be sure he felt “out of sorts”. I dunno, but it seems to me to be less far fetched and make more sense than “pints and quarts”.
Pool noodles can also be used to keep tall boots in shape. Cut noodle to desired height, and stick inside the boot. Will kelp to keep your boots folding or bending.

I accidentally left a bottle of hand sanitizer w/the cap ajar this past August. A few days later I noticed it contained roughly 20-30 fruit flies. I brought out another 2 bottles I'd gotten on sale, flipped their caps & for a total of $1.50 eradicated my annual end of summer fruit fly problem!
the borax which is also found in most common soaps usually wreck all types of buggy like fruit flies and ants. Add some vingear or sweet smell like your hand sanitizer and now you have a bug dish trap.
While hiking on the Appalachian trail I got a couple of small cuts on my legs. I only had 3 band -aids which didn't last long. Found a tube of medicated lip balm and when the band-aids ran out I rubbed the cuts with the balm. Not only did it help keep dirt out but I noticed the cuts started healing faster than using antibiotic cream. Now I keep a tube with me most of the time.
Love that! I live in a rural area with dodgy electric in the winter. So sometimes we have to do our business in the middle of snowstorms out in the woods. Will come in handy, now off to get a 5 gallon bucket..
I knew this, but TFS! I've never thought to! That's a great hack...and sometimes needed. Cheap cat litter in the bucket is a great idea also. That's how we do it. GOD bless
The padding on our trampoline wore out, we used cut pool noodles to cover the springs so the kids don't get pinched. (Also looks cool in a rainbow configuration)
As someone who has dealt with a lot of nausea in my time, the best home remedy I've found is mustard, I eat it on a slice of bread, usually knocks it right out, was a life savior through cancer, and pregnancy.

POOL NOODLES are also perfect for protecting tree trunks on new tiny trees - just cut to length and cut a slit up the side to slide it on; protects it from nibbling deer, and often you won't have to stake the tree or, if you do, protects the cord from cutting into the bark. Besides, the bright colors will hopefully keep idiots from driving/mowing/weed eating it down. ALSO... cut lengths of pool noodles as boot trees to keep them from wrinkling, sagging or flopping over.
One of my favorite hidden features on cars is an arrow indicating the side with the gas cap. Look at your gas gauge, right there next to the E is an arrow indicating which side of the car the gas cap is located. It doesn't really matter on your own car because you probably know which side the gas cap is on, but it is very handy if you ever rent a car.
I like the little stick thing they have connected to the wheel that you flick to let people know if you're turning left or right. I've found that very few drivers are aware of this secret feature.
That "command sign" is used in the Nordic countries for a cultural/historical important site. A museum, a castle, an old viking grave. Something worth visiting. We call it "kulturkringla", means cultural doodle. When traveling we try to put in some "kulturkringlor" in the schedule. Quite often rest sites along the country roads are placed at a historical site. If you take a break noth of Stockholm, by the highway, you are at the site where the midieval kings were sworn in, Mora stenar. Marked by that sign and an information board.
Ah, my grandma used to make Norwegian cookies called Kringlas! they were shaped like one corner of the symbol! A bit of a pain to make, only did it once and they're not that sweet so of course my kids were lukewarm to them.
In Marine Corps boot camp we would use hand sanitizer and brown paper towels to shine the chrome on sinks, etc. It has to be a type without aloe, or it streaks. I used it on my car, too ☺️
I use pool noodles to keep my pipes from freezing over in the winter. :) I cut one side and duct tape it around the pipe. Thank you! I love these! BE AMAZED!
I did not know this. I’m always bitchin’ about how quickly they go bad. A simple paper towel will do the trick? I’m all in. Thank you for that awesome tip.
Another good use for pool noodles with the hollow center, is that you can slice up one side, and place them over canopy or tent ropes to make them easier to see as the sun goes down. I use 4 fluorescent green ones on our screened in dining tent.
At 62 ..I remember the days of roundish bottles of "French's" mustard- that came in like 3 sizes : small medium and large(about the size of a small cantaloupe)The all had twist on flat caps and you had to spread it on with a table knife from the jar...If you were buying one from a vendor somewhere they would fill up yellow squirt bottles with it and red for ketchup
As told to me by a bartender; "No nick" glasses are also called this due to each bar/pub stocking a slightly different version bulbous drinkwear. Prior to their introduction, patrons would steal or "nick" these cups for their personal home use, eventually compiling a full matching set for themselves. When the "no nick" pints were introduced, this problem became less and less prevalent, as the would-be thieves did not want set of glasses that did not match each other. Also, as each bar/pub had unique cups, the fact that they were stolen and where they were stolen from would be apparent to their guests. Not sure if this factoid is 100% accurate, but it is definitely an interesting take on the subject.
Floss also works for cutting cake and bread and cheese and probably anything else that's soft. My mom used it on a road trip to cut a 2 foot sub. Worked like a charm
@@jasonwolfe3639 lol. Hey my pocket knife is not for cutting? 😁 I honestly use mine for everything...screwdriver, bandaid(hurts puttin on more than takin off), coffee stirrer, scraper, pencil sharpener, small pry bar, can opener, oh ya. And to cut food 😆
You can also cut a pool noodle to fit a dog's neck instead of the awkward cones used after surgery. The thickness of the noodle doesn't allow the dog to bend its head enough to lick at surgical sites. Just run a piece of rope through the noodle and tie around dogs neck. Plus they don't run into everything😁
As someone who's worked in retail management at a Leather shop. We learned that balling up wax paper and rubbing it on the zipper teeth of jackets or handbags makes the zipper zip with ease. We used to also rub it on the racks the coats hung on so we could fit more product out because the hangers wouldn't catch the metal bar and stick.

"Awkward human interaction" is part of our problem. It shouldn't be awkward in anyway to meet or be near another human. What has happened is the internet and phones that keep humans from any real interactions with other humans. Its keeping many humans isolated to the point they begin to lack social skills in real life situations. Jmo.🤗
Well, I'll be damned. I've been using French's mustard for years and always made a mess out of the little lid because it didn't open all the way, or so I thought. Upon seeing how it's actually supposed to work I paused the video, walked to the fridge and tried it out. Mind blown. I'll be passing this information to my family and friends. Thanks for posting the great useful tips, Mr. "Be Amazed"!
Me too! I had noticed the weirdly shaped back of spout and fiddled with it a bit, certain there must be a reason. But I never guessed this and it works!
Frenches mustard is good for burns. Years ago, when I worked at Walmart I was heating up a cup of water in the Micro wave oven for my instant coffee. As I reached in and was pulling it towards me it caught on the rim of the turn table and tipped, boiling water splashed onto my midriff right through my clothes. The boiling water had melted my skin away on that spot and the pain was excruciating. One of my coworkers ran and bought a bottle of Frenches mustard smeared it all over my burned skin. The mustard soothed the injury and days later there was absolutely no scar, just pink skin.
Bicarbonate of soda is great for removing stains in coffee and tea cups. Also place a small bowl of bicarb in the fridge to absorb odours. Love your channel by the way. 👍❤️🧑🦳
Please please please do not put your keys into the quarter slots on shopping carts!!! I've worked at Aldi (in the US) for 10 years. Yoi have no idea how many keys people have lost because they get stuck in the carts. All you have to do is come inside and ask any associate at the register for a quarter. We will happily give you one.
People make a big deal about quarters and not having a damn quarter. I’m like really I used to go to Aldi all the time and half the time I would give my carts away and quarters to other people I mean that’s just being nice it’s just $.25 unless you’re starving Which a lot of people are now you can get the quarterback you’re not renting anything you put the quarter in you can take it right back out when you push your car back to the place where it belongs that’s why they do that shit so people won’t leave their grocery cart all over the parking lot because they want that damn quarter back. Lmao
The bic office pens we usually use have that hole in top of the cap, is actually for a choking hazard if a child swallows one by accident they can breathe thru the hole giving more time for medical care.
Years ago, the BiC pens didn’t have that hole in the cap when I was a kid in Mexico, then coming to the US and buying some BIC pens and I noticed the hole and it bugged me thinking if I was crazy because I didn’t remember the caps having a hole so I searched online and found the answer. Glad to know to know I wasn’t tripping.
Swimming pool noodles make wonderful earring holders if the earrings are made with hooks that go through the ear. Just stick the noodle on a wooden dowel and stick your earrings in pairs all around and down the length of the noodle. Helps keep them organized and together at eye level.

Fair warning about hand sanitizers: excessive use can be harmful. Overuse of sanitizers can leave skin irritated and sensitive to UV light (by removing natural oils). Sanitizers that contain Triclosan instead of alcohol can cause allergic reactions. A simple 'search' can provide more detailed information.
Unlike what the video says, you should NOT use it on your cellphones screen to clean it. On every cellphone screen there is a coating that makes the screen feel smooth to the touch to allow for easy movement of your fingers on the screen. Using any kind of alchohol based cleaner does clean the screen, but it also removes that coating that makes the screen feel nice and slippery like its supposed to be.
It is not just the good oils it also kills off the good bacteria on your skin. That is one thing people nowadays don't understand. Oh we need to keep clean! We don't want germs on us!!! Years later they have skin cancer or some other illness cause they removed of all the good bacteria while keeping the bad bacteria off. So while people live a life of panic and fear they are slowly destroying them self's for the sake of staying clean. Same goes for your intestines. If you wash your innards your going to have a vary bad life.
@@cynthiakeller5954 There are so many underlying factors in play with covid. The biggest one is health condition. People who are with weak immune system will more then likely succumbed to the disease. Another thing is a hidden illness that has not surfaced could also be a problem. Like you could have someone who looks and acts like they are in perfect health but inside hidden there is something festering unknown to the person and anyone else. So in a nut shell not just known illnesses but the unknown illnesses that can cause a seemly healthy person die from covid.
Top Tip don't use sanitizer on your phone it will strip off the Oleophobic coating on your cell/mobile phone! making it no longer resistant to the natural oils in your skin/hands 🤦♂️
In the past, I repaired microwaves. Keeping them clean is the most important thing you can do. Over time and repeated heating, left-over dirty food and stains can cause the paint inside the microwave to burn, leading to the arcing, burning, and even melting of dirty plastic parts. The touch-up paint we used to use to repair this never really worked as well as it should have, and sometimes the touch-up paint did not perform as well as the manufacturers’ paint jobs did. At times, it didn't work effectively.
The first microwaves called radar ranges didn’t have the mesh.I remember my home ec teacher warning that standing too near or even worse leaning your arm on a microwave while it was running could cause a severe burn.
I have equipment that measures the microwaves emitted from any microwave cooker. Let me assure you, that pathetic little criss-cross pattern on the glass does NOT stop the microwaves leaking. Whatever you do, don't stand - or let your kids stand - anywhere near a microwave cooker when it's in use!
Also keep any over-ripe bananas from all the fresh bananas, as the ethylene emitted from the overripe banana will ripe all the other bananas. However, if one banana is under-ripe, you can put it with the overripe to get it to ripe faster.
Thank you for validating what my father always used to say, and everyone always thought he was crazy! 40% chance of rain means 100% in 40% of the area!!! 😃
Not sure if she was aware of that, but my Aunt Alice used to tell me it needed to be at least 40 percent chance of rain before we would actually see any rain.

Folding the towel so it doesn't fall down is how we tie sarong in Asia, but we fold more than once because the material is thinner. It really does stay secure.
@@anncoffman4448 I didn't notice (and just plain forgot) when I was buying the set (washcloths, hand towels, etc.) to even look for the larger towels. These days, I just put on a terrycloth bathrobe, and voila! With a little judicious rubbing in specific locations, I'm mostly dry. I just use a hand towel to dry my feet when I sit down to put on my socks.
Another use for foam noodles? Use them under kayaks to keep from scratching or damaging them or the sides of trailer when carrying small Jon boats on trailers, slit and wrap around outside faucets \ pipes to keep from freezing in cold weather, slit and wrap around hoses to help in cold weather, of course I always wrap newspaper and put the noodles over the paper....excellent use for insulation. The foam boards are great to use as knee pad with gardening, laying on when working under cars, use to ease knee pain when kneeling to paint baseboards. And use the swim rafts to sleep on in tents.....cheap air mattress. Amazing the things we can use and save money for various uses.

If you've already got some odour on your feet or in your armpits that no amount of washing and scrubbing seems to work on, then you can try rubbing some stainless steel on it. The stink is caused by sulfur compounds. When you rub stainless steel on it, you're basically swapping out the sulfur with the iron in the steel. That's because sulfur and iron are very similar sizes and have the same valence charge, which allows them to substitute for each other in many compounds. There are stainless steel bars that are molded to look like bars of soap, or you can look for anything around that has rounded edges that's made of stainless steel. A simple tablespoon will get the job done. Rub the steel on the malodorous part of your body thoroughly, and then remember to wash the spoon before using it on food if you try that. Edit: Do the stain-less steel rubbing when you're washing up, after you've already given yourself a good wash.
@@annabellethedoll4032 you never noticed it? Obviously you have to buy mustard in a packaging that does it, not all of them have this feature. Look under the lid too, many condiments have a rubber seal (with an × shaped cut/opening) stuck under the cap that's meant to make less mess than just a hole in a cap would. Tends to be more common on the larger bottles.
When you purchase a roll of kitchen cellophane or foil wrap look at both ends of the box. Push in the little tabs at both ends to create a little axel to hold the roll in and help the roll to spin without popping out of the box. #2. The hole in Bic type pen caps is to allow air to pass through if swallowed by a child and it gets stuck in his throat. I just amazed myself!

You can also use hand sanitizer to detect counterfeit money. The ink used by most commercially available printers will run & smear when it comes into contact with hand sanitizer.

Yellow mustard can also be used for minor burns from cooking if you rub Yellow mustard on a burn immediately after the burn it'll eventually take away the pain as it dries slathera generous amount of yellow mustard let it dry wipe off.

As explained by several meteorologists, the weather percentage is based on the viewing area...50% means half of the viewing area will see that kind of weather. Eating mustard is good for muscle cramps.
The mustard cap one was new for me, but that was the only new one. Thanks for that though. My kids and family (at gatherings) are always making a mess of the condiments. I'll be sure to pass this one along. I just wish Heinz did this too, for their ketchup and relish bottles, and Miracle Whip, mayo, BBQ, and salad dressing manufacturers for their squeeze bottles.

For the bit about the phone antennae around the 11:15 mark - this was also the subject of Steve Job's famous "Well don't hold it that way" email to a customer without having considered that the contact points on the device were also the places where most humans held their phones up to their ear to make calls. This resulted in them shelling out a pretty good chunk of change to provide cases for all of the iPhone buyers affected by this clear design flaw.
If you don't have an eraser, sometimes gel hand sanitizer takes adhesive off of stuff too. You can also take spills off of cotton clothing before a stain sets in by blotting it with a clean paper towel dampened with 70% or 91% isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol; I think it works just as good if not better than hand sanitizer. You can also add a good amount of rubbing alcohol to your bottle of hand sanitizer when it gets low. I usually add enough alcohol to fill 1/4 to 1/2 of the hand sanitizer bottle then shake a few seconds until it thickens and keep adding a little more as long as it keeps thickening. Just remember to keep your hands away from open fire until they're completely dry after using.
@@Sunny-ju1lr Why would I want to use something toxic (even if it's low toxicity) and smells like hell when vegetable oil and vinegar are food safe and human safe and don't trigger headaches and vomiting (the smell of butane has that affect on me, I'm hyper-sensitive to certain smells)? I'll refrain from the butane. 😉 But, if someone wants to use liquid butane, that's their choice, naturally. 🙂👍
@@katheryn769 Not in my experience. It evaporates quickly, while the oil stays put, same with vinegar. You just soak a cotton pad, or some folded up paper towel in vinegar (If using vinegar) and leave it on the label, come back in about 20 minutes and it wipes right off. Rubbing alcohol is also an offensive odor to me. I don't mind vinegar because I make dressings using it all the time, and vegetable oil tends to have zero odor.
OMG!!!! I did not realize the low bars when I am in a low range apartment (due to new construction) may also because I have an RFID blocking case over my phone! I am going to back to using plastic phone cases to see if this cures my one bar problem when I am at home and work. I get full bars when I am out and about in most areas. Thank you for creating this. I have an iPhone 13 and there are lines on each side of the top of my phone and two lines on each side of the bottom. I shamefully thought it was part of the design just a style feature. I have two bars now that I've taken the case off. As I was typing this, I was listening to this video and heard about the double tapping of the apple on the back. Thank you!!!! Reading the apple iPhone manual is on my to do list... It's been there for a long while (going on ten years now). It just never made priority and I still think on vacation one day I might find time to read through the latest manual. 🙂 I look forward to learning more useful tips. I love the towel one. I am top heavy.... I am going to try it tomorrow as I am tired of having to adjust the towel while brushing my teeth after I get out the shower. Sorry, I think brushing while showering is gross.
I’ve used a lot of French’s mustard in my day however, I’ve never found it necessary to use the hinge on the cap to keep the cap from getting mustard on it.
If you hang bananas from the stems instead of sitting them on a surface they last MUCH longer. The brown bruising starts in the part of the banana that contacts the hard surface of your counter

The deco lug doesn't seem to be for registering the bottle position, because what difference does it make whether the printing starts and ends in any particular place? Rather, it allows the machinery to drive the rotation of the bottle so that it rotates exactly in synchronism with the printing screen, thus preventing blurring of the image. The research for this item was a bit incomplete.
I noticed two small spots of fresh blood on a new white cotton bed quilt. My arm was bleeding where something had bitten me. I put peroxide on cotton balls and dabbed them on the blood on the quilt. I did this several times and the blood began to disappear. Then I put a clean wash rag into cold water and rung it out and dabbed the cold cloth on the spots. Soon all the blood stain was totally gone and you couldn’t even see where it had been.
Saliva works better, quicker and is more convenient. I made costumes for our State ballet company. If we pricked our finger and bled on the fabric we rolled up a small ball of cotton sewing thread, wet it in our mouth then used it as a sponge on the blood. It removes the fresh blood instantly.
Oleophobic coating, first used on the iPhone 3gs. even your protective screen should come with layer, and alcohol will eat it away. you can test to see if its still present on your device by with the bead drop test. if a drop of water beads up, its there. if it splatters out, its gone.

A BETTER hack for cheese grating is to find a steak knife or a knife that has teeth on it!!.. Just hold the cheese with good grip and just slide the teethed edge up and down "like a grater " and works better than an actual grater imo!!.. ✌ Edit-And you won't have to clean cheese off of your bank card which would really grate on you!!.. 😉✌ Edit 2-The smaller the teeth the finer the cheese comes off. For example I use a steak knife which has smaller teeth which is brilliant for pasta!...
15:25 A super faster way to take a screenshot is to press the on/off button on the top right side and the channel button at the bottom, just press and hold these two bad boys till you hear a snapping sound like you're taking a photo. Try it. 17:45 The coin insertion unlocks the shopping cart to another shopping cart in a row at the front of the Mart. Thus if you want your coin back you have to bring the cart back to the row at the front of the Supermart, there is a thingy that inserts into a slot that will release your coin; your cart is now locked into the rest of the carts. This is a sneaky way of solving the ugly habit of shoppers dropping off the shopping carts all over the place.
I work clothing retail and the hand sanitizer trick is super helpful to get makeup, pen or other mysterious stains out the clothes when we don't have alcohol prep pads. Also I love how they used a kingdom hearts key there for a second 😁
@@debrareyna9243 A cool thing that I learned recently .. when you write on something with a permanent marker and it won't come off, you can erase it by writing over the mark with another permanent marker of any color and while it's still wet you can wipe it off. There's some kind of chemical in the ink that lets that happen. Maybe it's alcohol? I didn't know this trick until just recently. Now I use it a lot. I write labels on bottle caps and then I can write a different label later by using this trick to erase the old mark. I think alcohol does the same thing but just using another marker is easier.
@@tralfazy You can also "erase" permanent ink marker with a dry erase marker. I just wish I had had all this knowledge when my daughter was little and found a Sharpie at my dad's.
My favorite grocery store has the volume control buttons deactivated at self check out ..... they have found that when the customers were able to mute the volume, the store was having too high a loss % from people pretending to scan items .... but as long as the volume is turned on, and always at the high volume, for some reason the losses went down to 0%. Go figure.
Losses to 0% you say. I think you’re over estimating that. At least once a week when I go to self check out I find that someone has booped some thing on there that isn’t mine and I have to have it removed because whoever did it booped their item and walked away. It probably made the Boop sound but somebody didn’t catch that they didn’t pay and that’s why your losses prediction isn’t right. You’ll say it is but I guarantee you it’s not.
@@wolfiemcqueen647 that makes 0 sense. How do you not see someone Scan something at YOUR checkout? And how would you continue scanning without the item on the scale?
Hand sanitizer can also be put on your sink sponge to keep it from growing things.... If you get leg cramps rub yellow mustard on the bottom of your feet.
03:35 - "Super" hand sanitizer. DO NOT use hand sanitizer for cleaning screens, stains from clothes, etc. Many sanitizers include skin moisturizers like aloe because using sanitizer often means the alcohol in it will damage skin.
Here's one of my favorite unknown to most Drivers. Did you know that the gas ⛽ pump icon is actually there to tell you which side of the vehicle the gas inlet is on. As in the icon above, the inlet is shown on the right side of your vehicle. It follows that when the hose and pump are on the left side.... So too is the inlet.
Mustard is excellent on the spot in your mouth , leg cramp medicine and helps on burns as well , to stop the pain and help with blistering and scaring.
I've been working at a body shop for a bit now and extra tips I learned was if you're painting the door, it's better to take off the mirror and belt molding (the trim at the bottom of the window) for a better paint job in the end. The mirror can get in the way, and if you're unlucky, the clear coat could stick in that gap between the door and the belt molding.
Another trick for bananas is if you peal them open from the bottom it pulls the rhine off with the peal. At the same time as well as the bottom part. Monkeys in the wild actually open them like that as well.
That trick for keeping rats off ships is similar to the metal ring/strip you see on trees in Hawaii. It's to keep the rats from climbing up the tree and accidentally falling on people, and maybe so they don't chew the coconuts, with the same results (falling on to people).🤭
Actually I was going to say that you shouldn't. I've been using computers and technology stuff for over 50 years. You shouldn't use hand sanitizer on anything electronic. WHY? Because The screen has a very thin protective contrast coating that can get ruined from the high concentration of rubbing Alcohol in hand sanitizer. Also. Since most hand sanitizer has other ingredients for moisturizing hands because pure rubbing alcohol is Drying to skin. This can cause your screen to get a grease film you can never get rid of. It becomes a vicious circle. Screen cleaner is rubbing Alcohol Water and preservatives. To prevent fungus and microbes from growing. But hey. If you're okay with ruining expensive stuff. You do you...
@@emerencespringer I have had no end of devices that tell me explicitly not to use an alcohol-based cleaners, among other substances. For the most part, I just use a bit of water.
@@gypsydust I prefer to think you're right. I'd already decided to just go right on using the percentage like I always did. The other way is far too annoying. 😅
If you find a microwave at a garage sale that’s always handy to keep around. You can put old radio, walkie-talkies or cell phones in it. If any emp were to ever go off they would be protected and when everyone else’s devices won’t work yours will if you would keep it in that or at least keep a walkie-talkie in there so if you need means of communication after such an event you can.
I learned early on, in the first popularity of alcohol-based hand sanitizer, a few alternative uses, I found it removed ballpoint pen ink not only from my skin, but sometimes from clothing and from smooth nonporous surfaces. In desperation, I could deice my car locks with it, too. [Edit] sometimes works for Sharpie marker as well, but needs multiple applications to more heavily dilute the ink.
@@aspirecan4829 yeah, but who's carrying around straight rubbing alcohol? More often, people are carrying a lanyard with a little hand sanitizer bottle. I know I am. Best for quick-fix, on-the-fly remedy. And, like I said, sometimes deices car locks, too.
@@georgetrapp6666 Yes. I wasn't thinking of when people were out and about. Just at home, and most people have rubbing alcohol if they don't have any hand sanitizer. Not everyone carries hand sanitizer with them or has it at home. I have both, so it's not an issue for me.
I remember those early Apple computers. As we could see from the image of the keyboard but you neglected to mention was that there were two Apple keys, one that was just an outline (on the left) and one that was filled in (on the right). They were called Open Apple and Closed Apple, respectively, and they did two different things: essentially the original command/control and alt.

The best use for that over ripe banana is to put it in a brownie mix. It enhances the chocolate flavor. 2 per mix also work and make really nicely moist brownies.
They are great in oatmeal too.

Also good in vanilla yogurt.

When I was younger, I remember adults using the expression, "mind your P's and Q's. It seemed like a more polite way of saying 'mind your own business', or 'behave yourself'. But I never really knew. 40 years later at a party I heard someone telling the story. The expression was started and used by British bartender's, someone drinking beer and getting a little loud or out of hand were told to "Mind their Pints and Quarts", the 2 sizes of containers beer was served in. Who knew!! LOL
by British (bartender's) = bartender is? The plural for bartender is bartenders. Also it was not so much about those getting loud or out of hand, it was primarily in reference to those who were running a tab to 'mind their P's & Q's' they are going to have to account for and pay in full, which they can easily lose track of when the drinks are flowing freely.
@@matthewronsson Thank you! Finally at 72, I know the real story! Cheers --gary
The Irish?
I was taught it was derived from the typesetting industry. Typesetters put little metal letters (called “sorts”) in a frame to make the words that get printed so you can then read books, magazines and newspapers. They have to do it backwards, though, so it will appear the proper way when printed. When setting these sorts backwards, “p” looks like “q” and “q” looks like “p” and it’s easy to make mistakes. Ergo “mind your Ps and Qs”. Also- the typesetter had to hope he didn’t run out of the most common letters (e, l, t, n etc.) before he reached the end of the page. If he did, you can be sure he felt “out of sorts”. I dunno, but it seems to me to be less far fetched and make more sense than “pints and quarts”.
@@matthewronssonI learned that when I was going to elementary school. ❤

I accidentally left a bottle of hand sanitizer w/the cap ajar this past August. A few days later I noticed it contained roughly 20-30 fruit flies. I brought out another 2 bottles I'd gotten on sale, flipped their caps & for a total of $1.50 eradicated my annual end of summer fruit fly problem!
the borax which is also found in most common soaps usually wreck all types of buggy like fruit flies and ants. Add some vingear or sweet smell like your hand sanitizer and now you have a bug dish trap.
Another thing that will work and is even cheaper is to add a small amount of vinegar to water to do the exact same thing. ;)
Just say cap open no need to be posh.
Apple cider vinegar and lemon or orange pine-sol combined, works great.
I've noticed that
While hiking on the Appalachian trail I got a couple of small cuts on my legs. I only had 3 band -aids which didn't last long. Found a tube of medicated lip balm and when the band-aids ran out I rubbed the cuts with the balm.
Not only did it help keep dirt out but I noticed the cuts started healing faster than using antibiotic cream.
Now I keep a tube with me most of the time.
Carmex is especially good for this!!
@Kat-no4ey
Try the blistex in the green tube, it seems to work a little better than the others I tried.
Raw honey is a wonderful healer on a cut
I would use SPF lip balm on my nose to prevent sun burn.
You can also slice a pool noodle to fit around top of lined 5 gallon bucket as seat for camp or emergency toilet.
Love that! I live in a rural area with dodgy electric in the winter. So sometimes we have to do our business in the middle of snowstorms out in the woods. Will come in handy, now off to get a 5 gallon bucket..
I knew this, but TFS! I've never thought to! That's a great hack...and sometimes needed. Cheap cat litter in the bucket is a great idea also. That's how we do it. GOD bless
Great tip! TY!
The padding on our trampoline wore out, we used cut pool noodles to cover the springs so the kids don't get pinched. (Also looks cool in a rainbow configuration)

As someone who has dealt with a lot of nausea in my time, the best home remedy I've found is mustard, I eat it on a slice of bread, usually knocks it right out, was a life savior through cancer, and pregnancy.

POOL NOODLES are also perfect for protecting tree trunks on new tiny trees - just cut to length and cut a slit up the side to slide it on; protects it from nibbling deer, and often you won't have to stake the tree or, if you do, protects the cord from cutting into the bark. Besides, the bright colors will hopefully keep idiots from driving/mowing/weed eating it down. ALSO... cut lengths of pool noodles as boot trees to keep them from wrinkling, sagging or flopping over.
using crumpled newsprint or store ads will do the same thing but will also dry out the footwear more quickly- cheaper, too.
They are also perfect for drying art brushes. Just cut a slit in them with exacto knife. Slide brushes in to dry upside down.
They are also ideal for insulating water pipes in the winter.
@@tommurphy4307 I don’t like smudgy newsprint inside my $$$ Corral or Old Gringo boots, but have done that for cheap rubber pasture boots.
One of my favorite hidden features on cars is an arrow indicating the side with the gas cap. Look at your gas gauge, right there next to the E is an arrow indicating which side of the car the gas cap is located. It doesn't really matter on your own car because you probably know which side the gas cap is on, but it is very handy if you ever rent a car.
No, only on some models.
Bruhh..... 😂
You'd be surprised how many people have no clue which side their cap is on,

I like the little stick thing they have connected to the wheel that you flick to let people know if you're turning left or right. I've found that very few drivers are aware of this secret feature.
Hand sanitizer is great for ant bites , mosquitoes bites takes the sting right out. Works great !
I use hand sanitizer to help separate new bills.
Most things you would use rubbing alcohol to do, you can use hand sanitizer to do because it's high in alcohol.
This is good to know . Very useful .
Just be careful if you scratched the bite open, it can really sting on an open sore
Use to clean eyeglasses
That "command sign" is used in the Nordic countries for a cultural/historical important site. A museum, a castle, an old viking grave. Something worth visiting. We call it "kulturkringla", means cultural doodle. When traveling we try to put in some "kulturkringlor" in the schedule. Quite often rest sites along the country roads are placed at a historical site. If you take a break noth of Stockholm, by the highway, you are at the site where the midieval kings were sworn in, Mora stenar. Marked by that sign and an information board.
I'm thinking it's actually "culture "pretzel"...
charming, thankyou.
Ah, my grandma used to make Norwegian cookies called Kringlas! they were shaped like one corner of the symbol! A bit of a pain to make, only did it once and they're not that sweet so of course my kids were lukewarm to them.
In Marine Corps boot camp we would use hand sanitizer and brown paper towels to shine the chrome on sinks, etc. It has to be a type without aloe, or it streaks. I used it on my car, too ☺️
Crazy we used ketchup and vinger
@@Wassupwafflez Sounds delicious! 😂
brown paper towels are abrasive and will eventually scratch up the plating. silver-polishing cloths have a much finer abrasive.

It's also a great mirror/window cleaner in a pinch. I have put a few squirts on a napkin and wiped my car windows and they were SUPER clean.
I use pool noodles to keep my pipes from freezing over in the winter. :) I cut one side and duct tape it around the pipe. Thank you! I love these! BE AMAZED!
I noticed putting a paper towel in with vegetables keeps them fresher longer. Especially lettuce.
Correct ❤❤
Carrots too.
I did not know this. I’m always bitchin’ about how quickly they go bad. A simple paper towel will do the trick? I’m all in. Thank you for that awesome tip.
Another good use for pool noodles with the hollow center, is that you can slice up one side, and place them over canopy or tent ropes to make them easier to see as the sun goes down. I use 4 fluorescent green ones on our screened in dining tent.
they do make rope in high-vis colors

At 62 ..I remember the days of roundish bottles of "French's" mustard- that came in like 3 sizes : small medium and large(about the size of a small cantaloupe)The all had twist on flat caps and you had to spread it on with a table knife from the jar...If you were buying one from a vendor somewhere they would fill up yellow squirt bottles with it and red for ketchup
As told to me by a bartender; "No nick" glasses are also called this due to each bar/pub stocking a slightly different version bulbous drinkwear. Prior to their introduction, patrons would steal or "nick" these cups for their personal home use, eventually compiling a full matching set for themselves. When the "no nick" pints were introduced, this problem became less and less prevalent, as the would-be thieves did not want set of glasses that did not match each other. Also, as each bar/pub had unique cups, the fact that they were stolen and where they were stolen from would be apparent to their guests. Not sure if this factoid is 100% accurate, but it is definitely an interesting take on the subject.
It certainly sounds practical.
i don't even know you, but you def spend too much time in bars.
Floss also works for cutting cake and bread and cheese and probably anything else that's soft. My mom used it on a road trip to cut a 2 foot sub. Worked like a charm

You can also cut a pool noodle to fit a dog's neck instead of the awkward cones used after surgery. The thickness of the noodle doesn't allow the dog to bend its head enough to lick at surgical sites. Just run a piece of rope through the noodle and tie around dogs neck. Plus they don't run into everything😁
This is a very useful pool noodle hack.
What a way better design than the cones.
This is brilliant! My daft dog is scared of cones so this would be far better!

As someone who's worked in retail management at a Leather shop. We learned that balling up wax paper and rubbing it on the zipper teeth of jackets or handbags makes the zipper zip with ease. We used to also rub it on the racks the coats hung on so we could fit more product out because the hangers wouldn't catch the metal bar and stick.

Frenches mustard is good for burns. Years ago, when I worked at Walmart I was heating up a cup of water in the Micro wave oven for my instant coffee. As I reached in and was pulling it towards me it caught on the rim of the turn table and tipped, boiling water splashed onto my midriff right through my clothes. The boiling water had melted my skin away on that spot and the pain was excruciating. One of my coworkers ran and bought a bottle of Frenches mustard
smeared it all over my burned skin. The mustard soothed the injury and days later there was absolutely no scar, just pink skin.
Yellow mustard is also good for a tummy ache. Simply put a little on your index finger and suck it off.
as a former burn-care specialist i think you're full of it.
One of my friends had constant tremors and a teaspoon of mustard stopped them.
Yellow mustard is loaded with turmeric…which heals everything.💕

Please please please do not put your keys into the quarter slots on shopping carts!!! I've worked at Aldi (in the US) for 10 years.

The bic office pens we usually use have that hole in top of the cap, is actually for a choking hazard if a child swallows one by accident they can breathe thru the hole giving more time for medical care.

Fair warning about hand sanitizers: excessive use can be harmful. Overuse of sanitizers can leave skin irritated and sensitive to UV light (by removing natural oils). Sanitizers that contain Triclosan instead of alcohol can cause allergic reactions. A simple 'search' can provide more detailed information.
Unlike what the video says, you should NOT use it on your cellphones screen to clean it. On every cellphone screen there is a coating that makes the screen feel smooth to the touch to allow for easy movement of your fingers on the screen. Using any kind of alchohol based cleaner does clean the screen, but it also removes that coating that makes the screen feel nice and slippery like its supposed to be.
It is not just the good oils it also kills off the good bacteria on your skin. That is one thing people nowadays don't understand. Oh we need to keep clean! We don't want germs on us!!! Years later they have skin cancer or some other illness cause they removed of all the good bacteria while keeping the bad bacteria off. So while people live a life of panic and fear they are slowly destroying them self's for the sake of staying clean. Same goes for your intestines. If you wash your innards your going to have a vary bad life.

In the past, I repaired microwaves. Keeping them clean is the most important thing you can do. Over time and repeated heating, left-over dirty food and stains can cause the paint inside the microwave to burn, leading to the arcing, burning, and even melting of dirty plastic parts. The touch-up paint we used to use to repair this never really worked as well as it should have, and sometimes the touch-up paint did not perform as well as the manufacturers’ paint jobs did. At times, it didn't work effectively.
The first microwaves called radar ranges didn’t have the mesh.I remember my home ec teacher warning that standing too near or even worse leaning your arm on a microwave while it was running could cause a severe burn.
radarange was a trade name by amana international
When I was growing up microwaves were called radars. I always wondered what the difference was.
I have equipment that measures the microwaves emitted from any microwave cooker. Let me assure you, that pathetic little criss-cross pattern on the glass does NOT stop the microwaves leaking. Whatever you do, don't stand - or let your kids stand - anywhere near a microwave cooker when it's in use!

Another use for foam noodles? Use them under kayaks to keep from scratching or damaging them or the sides of trailer when carrying small Jon boats on trailers, slit and wrap around outside faucets \ pipes to keep from freezing in cold weather, slit and wrap around hoses to help in cold weather, of course I always wrap newspaper and put the noodles over the paper....excellent use for insulation. The foam boards are great to use as knee pad with gardening, laying on when working under cars, use to ease knee pain when kneeling to paint baseboards.

I never thought to use hand sanitizer as a stain remover. Though I already _had_ figured out it makes a decent deodourant. Use it on my feet, too.
If you've already got some odour on your feet or in your armpits that no amount of washing and scrubbing seems to work on, then you can try rubbing some stainless steel on it.
The stink is caused by sulfur compounds. When you rub stainless steel on it, you're basically swapping out the sulfur with the iron in the steel. That's because sulfur and iron are very similar sizes and have the same valence charge, which allows them to substitute for each other in many compounds. There are stainless steel bars that are molded to look like bars of soap, or you can look for anything around that has rounded edges that's made of stainless steel. A simple tablespoon will get the job done. Rub the steel on the malodorous part of your body thoroughly, and then remember to wash the spoon before using it on food if you try that.
Edit: Do the stain-less steel rubbing when you're washing up, after you've already given yourself a good wash.
@@Thalanox you're right, thanks for the tip. Cooks use stainless steel to get the scent of garlic off their hands.

You can also use hand sanitizer to detect counterfeit money. The ink used by most commercially available printers will run & smear when it comes into contact with hand sanitizer.

For the bit about the phone antennae around the 11:15 mark - this was also the subject of Steve Job's famous "Well don't hold it that way" email to a customer without having considered that the contact points on the device were also the places where most humans held their phones up to their ear to make calls.

If you don't have an eraser, sometimes gel hand sanitizer takes adhesive off of stuff too.
You can also take spills off of cotton clothing before a stain sets in by blotting it with a clean paper towel dampened with 70% or 91% isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol; I think it works just as good if not better than hand sanitizer.
You can also add a good amount of rubbing alcohol to your bottle of hand sanitizer when it gets low. I usually add enough alcohol to fill 1/4 to 1/2 of the hand sanitizer bottle then shake a few seconds until it thickens and keep adding a little more as long as it keeps thickening. Just remember to keep your hands away from open fire until they're completely dry after using.
Don't want to bore 😴 anyone any further
I soak my labels with vinegar, then they just slide right off. Much better than the eraser. You can use vegetable oil as well.
Liquid Butane works too
@@Sunny-ju1lr Why would I want to use something toxic (even if it's low toxicity) and smells like hell when vegetable oil and vinegar are food safe and human safe and don't trigger headaches and vomiting (the smell of butane has that affect on me, I'm hyper-sensitive to certain smells)? I'll refrain from the butane. 😉
But, if someone wants to use liquid butane, that's their choice, naturally. 🙂👍
Rubbing alcohol works best.
@@katheryn769 Not in my experience. It evaporates quickly, while the oil stays put, same with vinegar. You just soak a cotton pad, or some folded up paper towel in vinegar (If using vinegar) and leave it on the label, come back in about 20 minutes and it wipes right off. Rubbing alcohol is also an offensive odor to me. I don't mind vinegar because I make dressings using it all the time, and vegetable oil tends to have zero odor.
@@SusanKay- That and for cleaning glass without streaks too. Vinegar is great! 😁
OMG!!!! I did not realize the low bars when I am in a low range apartment (due to new construction) may also because I have an RFID blocking case over my phone! I am going to back to using plastic phone cases to see if this cures my one bar problem when I am at home and work. I get full bars when I am out and about in most areas. Thank you for creating this. I have an iPhone 13 and there are lines on each side of the top of my phone and two lines on each side of the bottom. I shamefully thought it was part of the design just a style feature. I have two bars now that I've taken the case off. As I was typing this, I was listening to this video and heard about the double tapping of the apple on the back. Thank you!!!! Reading the apple iPhone manual is on my to do list... It's been there for a long while (going on ten years now). It just never made priority and I still think on vacation one day I might find time to read through the latest manual. 🙂 I look forward to learning more useful tips. I love the towel one. I am top heavy.... I am going to try it tomorrow as I am tired of having to adjust the towel while brushing my teeth after I get out the shower. Sorry, I think brushing while showering is gross.
Hand sanitizer also works as itch stopper😁
or a bitch-stopper if sprayed in the eyes
I’ve used a lot of French’s mustard in my day however, I’ve never found it necessary to use the hinge on the cap to keep the cap from getting mustard on it.
It is great for burns. Put on immediately stopping pain and no blisters. Sometimes may have to apply again later but it does work .
I am not using my debit card to cut cakes or grate cheese, but like the other tips.
If you hang bananas from the stems instead of sitting them on a surface they last MUCH longer. The brown bruising starts in the part of the banana that contacts the hard surface of your counter

It is great isn't it?
The deco lug doesn't seem to be for registering the bottle position, because what difference does it make whether the printing starts and ends in any particular place? Rather, it allows the machinery to drive the rotation of the bottle so that it rotates exactly in synchronism with the printing screen, thus preventing blurring of the image. The research for this item was a bit incomplete.
Your explanation makes sense. His did not. Agreed that it gives the machine something to hold onto as it rotates the bottle.
How nice to actually see something that's not repetitive new ideas great
I noticed two small spots of fresh blood on a new white cotton bed quilt. My arm was bleeding where something had bitten me. I put peroxide on cotton balls and dabbed them on the blood on the quilt. I did this several times and the blood began to disappear. Then I put a clean wash rag into cold water and rung it out and dabbed the cold cloth on the spots. Soon all the blood stain was totally gone and you couldn’t even see where it had been.
Saliva works better, quicker and is more convenient. I made costumes for our State ballet company. If we pricked our finger and bled on the fabric we rolled up a small ball of cotton sewing thread, wet it in our mouth then used it as a sponge on the blood. It removes the fresh blood instantly.
Phones have a fingerprint resistance film on its screen. Rubbing alcohol wipes that off within two or three cleans. So do that one at your own risk.
Oleophobic coating, first used on the iPhone 3gs. even your protective screen should come with layer, and alcohol will eat it away. you can test to see if its still present on your device by with the bead drop test. if a drop of water beads up, its there. if it splatters out, its gone.
@@billybones6463 Didn't know about that test. Just did it, still got it. Although the multiple cracks on the screen kind of diminished my satisfaction. Cheers!
A BETTER hack for cheese grating is to find a steak knife or a knife that has teeth on it!!.. Just hold the cheese with good grip and just slide the teethed edge up and down "like a grater " and works better than an actual grater imo!!.. ✌

17:45 The coin insertion unlocks the shopping cart to another shopping cart in a row at the front of the Mart. Thus if you want your coin back you have to bring the cart back to the row at the front of the Supermart, there is a thingy that inserts into a slot that will release your coin; your cart is now locked into the rest of the carts. This is a sneaky way of solving the ugly habit of shoppers dropping off the shopping carts all over the place.
And so they don't have to pay a kids to roundup the carts
Sneaky? That was the whole point of coin-released carts.

I work clothing retail and the hand sanitizer trick is super helpful to get makeup, pen or other mysterious stains out the clothes when we don't have alcohol prep pads. Also I love how they used a kingdom hearts key there for a second 😁
It's good for getting all the pen marks off the countertops, also.
I’ve been in a hurry and out of body wash, and the hand sanitizer has come through as a substitute.
@@debrareyna9243 A cool thing that I learned recently .. when you write on something with a permanent marker and it won't come off, you can erase it by writing over the mark with another permanent marker of any color and while it's still wet you can wipe it off. There's some kind of chemical in the ink that lets that happen. Maybe it's alcohol? I didn't know this trick until just recently. Now I use it a lot. I write labels on bottle caps and then I can write a different label later by using this trick to erase the old mark. I think alcohol does the same thing but just using another marker is easier.
@@tralfazy You can also "erase" permanent ink marker with a dry erase marker. I just wish I had had all this knowledge when my daughter was little and found a Sharpie at my dad's.
By the time you get old like me you will know a whole bunch of things that you'll wish you had known sooner! :o)
My favorite grocery store has the volume control buttons deactivated at self check out ..... they have found that when the customers were able to mute the volume, the store was having too high a loss % from people pretending to scan items .... but as long as the volume is turned on, and always at the high volume, for some reason the losses went down to 0%. Go figure.
Probably because the attendant can hear it telling you to put the unscanned items back in your cart.
Losses to 0% you say. I think you’re over estimating that. At least once a week when I go to self check out I find that someone has booped some thing on there that isn’t mine and I have to have it removed because whoever did it booped their item and walked away. It probably made the Boop sound but somebody didn’t catch that they didn’t pay and that’s why your losses prediction isn’t right. You’ll say it is but I guarantee you it’s not.
@@wolfiemcqueen647 that makes 0 sense. How do you not see someone Scan something at YOUR checkout? And how would you continue scanning without the item on the scale?
as long as the scale is properly calibrated- that can't happen as the transaction is put on hold.
Hand sanitizer can also be put on your sink sponge to keep it from growing things....
If you get leg cramps rub yellow mustard on the bottom of your feet.
03:35 - "Super" hand sanitizer. DO NOT use hand sanitizer for cleaning screens, stains from clothes, etc. Many sanitizers include skin moisturizers like aloe because using sanitizer often means the alcohol in it will damage skin.
Here's one of my favorite unknown to most Drivers. Did you know that the gas ⛽ pump icon is actually there to tell you which side of the vehicle the gas inlet is on. As in the icon above, the inlet is shown on the right side of your vehicle. It follows that when the hose and pump are on the left side.... So too is the inlet.
Wrapping the stems of bananas helps prevent gnats, also.

I've been working at a body shop for a bit now and extra tips I learned was if you're painting the door, it's better to take off the mirror and belt molding (the trim at the bottom of the window) for a better paint job in the end. The mirror can get in the way, and if you're unlucky, the clear coat could stick in that gap between the door and the belt molding.
gee, could you let them know at one day paint & body??
Another trick for bananas is if you peal them open from the bottom it pulls the rhine off with the peal. At the same time as well as the bottom part. Monkeys in the wild actually open them like that as well.

That trick for keeping rats off ships is similar to the metal ring/strip you see on trees in Hawaii. It's to keep the rats from climbing up the tree and accidentally falling on people, and maybe so they don't chew the coconuts, with the same results (falling on to people).🤭
It probably also protects the tree from them nibbling on the bark and leaves too
theyre generally used on palms, not trees. palms are grasses.@@tranquility9325

Actually I was going to say that you shouldn't. I've been using computers and technology stuff for over 50 years. You shouldn't use hand sanitizer on anything electronic. WHY? Because The screen has a very thin protective contrast coating that can get ruined from the high concentration of rubbing Alcohol in hand sanitizer. Also. Since most hand sanitizer has other ingredients for moisturizing hands because pure rubbing alcohol is Drying to skin. This can cause your screen to get a grease film you can never get rid of. It becomes a vicious circle. Screen cleaner is rubbing Alcohol Water and preservatives. To prevent fungus and microbes from growing. But hey. If you're okay with ruining expensive stuff.

I learned early on, in the first popularity of alcohol-based hand sanitizer, a few alternative uses, I found it removed ballpoint pen ink not only from my skin, but sometimes from clothing and from smooth nonporous surfaces. In desperation, I could deice my car locks with it, too.
[Edit] sometimes works for Sharpie marker as well, but needs multiple applications to more heavily dilute the ink.
That's why people used to use hairspray for ink marks, but hairspray no longer has alcohol.

Just use straight rubbing alcohol. It works well for removing permanent marker from non-porous surfaces.
