3. Soda cans are filthy, but if they're particularly gross, they can usually be rinsed before opening. On the other hand, I grew up where there was a separate tap for drinking water, and drank out of the hose. I have an immune system that would rival that of a scavenger.

You missed one. On the left side of the steering column of all automobiles is a small lever. It's not just for decoration. It's actually meant to be used to to turn on the flashing lights in the front and back left or right side of your car to let other drivers know you're about to make a turn. They're called blinkers or indicators and that little lever there is the indicator switch. ;-)

No, the drawer under your oven is NOT a warming drawer. Many manufacturers simply do not intend it to be used this way and have insulation in the oven to prevent heat from reaching this area. You have to read the manufacturers instructions. My oven's instructions, for example, specifically stated it was to be used for pan storage and not for warming purposes.

Jeans used to have rivets in the crotch seam because that's a stress point when riding horses. The rivets were removed because cowboys would stand close to the fire to cook or warm up and the rivets got really hot. Poor guys were burning their package. So manufacturers removed them, came up with sturdier seams

Soda pull tabs were not there to keep the straw from wiggling around, plastic straws get pushed out by the carbonation & make it impossible to get a sip, so the tab keeps them from constantly working their way out of your drink. They didn’t have metal straws when this invention was added. Silly…

So much misinformation regarding what things are "designed" for. No, Chinese takeout containers weren't designed to open into a plate, ketchup cups weren't designed to flatten out, soda can pull tabs weren't designed to hold straws, and the handles on your pots aren't designed to hold wooden spoons. These are just hacks people have discovered that can be done to make life a little easier. That doesn't make it an intended function of design.

Two quick mentions… 1) Though the word “pom pom” has been “dumbed down” in recent history, to the point it’s now used 50%+ of the time, and accepted beyond colloquial English… it’s historically (correctly) spelled “pompon.” Yes, one word, no space nor hyphen, and ending with an “n.” 2) Those genius tabs you push in to hold in place rolls of foil & plastic wrap… I’ve personally tried relying on them multiple times, only to always have it end in tears and cussing. In short, they’re worthless & useless. However, in closing, you guys ROCK!!!

like many of these hidden 'secrets' in this video the screwdriver was meant so that you could bloody grip the thing. it just so happens that the perfect size wrench can also grip the bloody thing. just like how a spaghetti spoon has a hole in it to let the water out. and if it's the exact perfect size hole then you can use it to measure spaghetti. there is no way in hell that is what it was designed for.

@blackdandelion5549 Жыл бұрын
Do you mean the very small pocket in the right front pocket of your jeans? It was actually for pocket watches. Before anyone wore them on their wrists you needed a place to store them in your pants as even people who wore jeans and worked needed to know what time it was. That is why the pocket was so small, but easily accessible and built in for everyday purpose. From 1879 the 5 pocket jeans advertised by Levi's Strauss included that small pocket you are referring to named a fob pocket and was considered to be the smartphone pocket of it's day. It was used for pocket watches. Per Levi's Jean Co. It was originally called a "watch pocket" and the "fob" or watch leash would attach to a man's belt by clip. In it's original form in the early 1800's it was solely a watch pocket until the jeans were started to be worn by more and more men in other professions such as cowboys, miners, factory workers, etc. and the pocket was then used for other things and referred to by other names such as frontier pocket, condom pocket, coin pocket, match pocket and ticket pocket.

Holes in hampers make the hamper dandy for repurposing for Trash bags, as removal of the trash bag is much easier. No vacuum is created thus making it easier to pull the filled bag from the container. STAPLERS, before they were invented, a straight pin was used to hold papers together, thus the setting of Pin Mode where the staple is "straightened". The curved back on itself is a safety mode.

A laundry basket & a hamper are 2 different things. Hopefully, the basket is what clean laundry is put into. If it's still warm from the dryer or hanging, the holes are useful in dissipating heat, I suppose. It's probably also more flexible & lighter for carrying. The hamper, generally a closed container for dirty laundry, has holes/spaces for the reason he says.

Another is the hole in the handle on pots: yes, it allows for hanging, but it's also for putting rounded spoon handles through at 45° angles: let's say you have a liquid ingredient like gravy, soup, or sauce. Where do you put the spoon so it's NOT in there the whole time, but yet so it's also convenient to use for stirring? It's also for hygiene: stirring spoons get dirty the second you set them down and you don't want a bunch of debris to get introduced. The angle works with gravity so you're NOT potentially contaminating food.

And in older stoves the drawer is only for storing pots and pans since the drawer stays cold no matter what temperature the oven is set for, so in order to know if it IS a warming drawer you have to check the owner's manual or try to keep your food warm and see if it works.

it’s probably just old models that had the pilot light on 24/7 ready for use, likely also a leftover from when broilers were on the bottom not top of the oven…everything in the past 20-30 years if not longer has been storage space not warming

@@bostonrailfan2427 Yes, I agree. I grew up with an oven that had a broiler on the bottom. Lots of yummy steaks were cooked by my mom using that method. I was shocked when I grew up and got my own place and realized that ovens no longer were made that way. Sad, really.

#10... Levi's had a rivet at the crotch, too, way back when. President Theodore Roosevelt was a great outdoorsman. He was squatting by a campfire when the crotch rivet got a "bit" warm. The President was VERY uncomfortable. His complaint to the Levi's company got that rivet eliminated.

I used to work in a plumbing and remodeling company ( as t tile setter) and one of our customers was a man who had been a part of the creation for that 2nd hole in a sink or bathtub. That was the beginning of modern sanitary plumbing. I don't recall the year, but it was t mid 20's to early 30's, when a massive cholera outbreak hit Chicago. He was in the city engineering department and was there when they found that it had been caused when a nurse in the infectious diseases ward had left dirty bed pans in a sink w/ the water running. when t water mains had a pressure drop, That had sucked contaminated water BACK into the water mains. Aterwards, Chicago building codes required all faucets to be 1" above any waste water, and all sinks+/ or tubs to have that 2nd hole to prevent contamination of potable water again. Also the city installed anti- siphoning valves between the main and supply pipeline systems. FYI

My biggest "people do it wrong" is when people use a veggie knife to trim hunks of meat. Then proceeded to use the thinner meat knife for cutting veggies. If you notice the big veggie knife is designed for more rocking with a front back motion. Meat trimming...well I use 4 knives. Small pairing knife (silver skin), fillet knife (trim hard to reach fat), standard straight knife ( bigger trimming/portioning) And, the 4th is the cleaver (disjointing)....almost never use might I add.

For the screwdriver, not only is the wrench you show not an adjustable (it's a box end) but the other "wrench" is called a vice grip. And ya, not a mini wrench either. Dude, cmon. There's more actually but why bother. No like for you. Kinda reminded me of sleepy Joe reading a teleprompter with your eyes dancing back and forth.

What about the caps on Rx pill bottles? If they’re tiered (and extra circle on top) and not completely level, you’ll notice you can flip them upside down and use them as screw (or even pop) tops rather than having to push down and turn every time. I thought it was common knowledge, but saw it listed in a life hack video, and even on TV.

The last one is interesting, and apparently a US thing... In Austria those drawers don't get warm at all (as the ovens are fairly well insulated) and are there only because the oven needs thicker wooden support struts to stand on and some downward space for the lid. (At least that's what the carpenter who made my kitchen told me...)

most ovens that drawer is only for storage. it does not even get warm one bit. as for people who call it for broiling, that is at the top of the inside of the range. the bake element is at the bottom of the inside of the range. heat goes up. in order for that drawer to get warm it would need an element inside of it which some newer ranges have but older ones do not.
