That, or the top of a mouth wash bottle where one squeezes said bottle to get a fair amount of mouth wash, but, instead of squeezing the bottle; squeeze the wineglass.

      You dont actually dip it in cold/hot water though, if u leave it dry its Very Stiff and you just put deterget/liquid in your pan and a bit of cold water and then straight scrub it (not submerge it in cold water) then you turn on the water and let it soften and rinse the pan or just put the pan in the dishwasher since you're done scrubbing the hard part. its more effective than a traditional scourer and even more so when it comes to grip and ease of use.

    I do agree the Scrub Daddy is somewhat awkward for use on most things (personally I prefer to steep stubborn dishes/pans) but the big selling point for me is that they last ages, just pop them in boiling water once a week for half an hour and rise with soapy water and bam, almost brand new and no smell/bacteria build-up like one normal scrubbing sponges. Also barely loses any of it's mass over time, the green scouring pads ware away fairly quickly and even though they are cheap in comparison, I prefer the more sustainable Scrub Daddy.

      Have to agree on it lasting a long time. Had mine for quite awhile and still retain is shape, no smell and it has mass. I do agreed with Dan on the hot and cold water aspect as I tried it and doesn't really feel like it be rigid cause of cold make it be able to scrub harder. It does allow for a better grip since is rigid and doesn't go flat when scrubbing compare to when it is in hot water.

    Honestly, I think using the "Guzzle Buddy" actually looks trashier than just swigging from the bottle, like it's almost literally lampshading the fact you just plan to drink the whole bottle without sharing it.
    And yes, his solution of just making a normal glass is best. Damn, like even camping I can manage to take a plastic cup!

    An unexpected benefit of the brownie pan is that it's much easier for all of the pieces to come out the same size. The extra edges act like perfectly spaced knife cuts when serving. The server only needs to make a single cut to get perfect squares and the pan is designed for exactly 12 squares.

      Frankly, it's not. Aside from being overly critical for no other reason than "shitting on products on the internet gets you views" (he literally deducted like three points because the turkey chainsaw was a little too heavy), he also lies directly to you while you're watching (claiming the turkey was a mangled mess when you can see that the cuts were actually quite clean, as it's just an electric knife).
      Also I legit don't understand how it took him ten full seconds to unscrew the cap on the wine bottle when he did the speed test for the guzzle buddy, except if he was deliberately slowing down to ensure that it lost. Speeding up the footage is a good way to disguise that.

      eh, I would argue the electric slicer isn't a good invention. Not every "problem" needs to be solved, and this is one of them. A regular carving knife is far more versatile, gives much better cuts, is easier to clean, and overall requires less effort to set up (just plugging it in, but still, it's more effort then just grabbing a knife) and overall solves a problem that was never an actual problem to begin with, just you the knife you already have in your home, and don't take up more cabinet space with that pointless invention. But ya, the chainsaw version is literally just inferiors in every way to it.

      Not me bub, between the navy, commercial fishing and merchant marine, I got to tell you, that party may start a little slow but give it a few hours and a couple bottles later and you're probably in for a helluva evening

    On the brownie edge pan he missed an opportunity to talk about Hilbert curves which could have been used to give even more edges on more pieces.

    Brownie tin, 3 sides. Brownies in cupcake pan, 360° of brownies edge. Plus to cupcake pans for making individuals serving and doesn't require cutting.

    For wine comparison, I would just get a straw, put it in the bottle, bend it, and when you drink from the bottle, you can close the opening with you lips, air would get in trough the straw, much faster than that crap.

      I have two superior methods to both your idea and the drinking buddy.
      1. Drink it from a glass.
      2. Drink it from the bottle.

    This was oddly more entertaining than I expected it to be. I really only came for the Chainsaw, but surprisingly stayed for the whole thing.

      You can amuse your guests by mutilating a turkey with a novelty gimmick I suppose.
      Perhaps you can tell I'm grasping at straws to answer that one.

      It's probably a novelty thing. Like the type of thing you get a gadget obsessed dad on Christmas that he uses to cut the Turkey and everyones like "ha ha chainsaw funny" but come boxing day you got a stressed out mum who dont know where to put it your dad forgotten it and it will sit ontop the fridge collecting dust until one Christmas eve someone brings up "remember when you cut it with a chainsaw?" And everyone wonders where the chainsaw is now.
      Or something idk no one in my family owns one

    I truly do not understand why the editor chooses to speed the “time test” footage up so they last the same amount of time. Maybe a still image is kind of boring but there’s creative video editors and it is way easier to visualize how much longer or shorter a task is if they’re being played at the same timescale.

    We love our edge pan - we got it shortly after it came out. For brownies, we always do a double batch in it. I also do lasagna, au gratin potatoes, etc. in it. I'm completely fine with the spatula and consider it integral as it's the perfect width for the pan. We've gifted at least three of them.
