Pooper Scooper


You're walking Fido and he decides to relieve himself on your neighbor's lawn. You forgot to bring a bag. It's 9pm and no one's around. What do you do with the pile?
While it's easier to walk away, the way to handle this correctively is to take a stick and shuffle the waste into the street. This way Fido's deposit will not end up in Fred's lawnmower or in the grooves of Fred Jr's shoes, and rain and traffic will whisk it away. Next time, remember the bag.

Cheesy Post



When eating Cheetos or Jax what is the best way to keep the inevitable orange residue off your hands?
Answer: After ingesting a handful, discard crumbs by rubbing your thumb and fingers against each other in a rapid, light rolling motion. It's helpful to steer the waste product into a napkin so you can keep your clothes and floor clean. It is essential to "roll away the residue" frequently, as a buildup from even 2 or more helpings will result in a stain that is difficult to remove, even after scrubbing with soap.

Wrap it up


When a dinner plate breaks (leaving you with an unfortunate 7 out of the original set of 8) how do you dispose of it?
Answer: Find a cardboard box (an empty cereal box is perfect) and place the broken pieces in the box, sealing it with packing or duct tape. If a box is not available, you can wrap the pieces in newspaper, then bind the package with duct tape. When taping is complete, dispose of in an outdoor trash receptacle.

Be Cool



What's the quickest way to cool off your car's interior after baking in the summertime sun for hours at a time?
Answer: Enter your vehicle, roll down all windows, then turn your AC to a medium setting. After one minute, roll the windows up and turn the air to a slightly higher setting. Rolling the windows down releases the heat; the car will cool quickly when the air kicks in fully. Here's hoping you sprung for the automatic windows option.

Roll with it



When hanging a toilet paper roll on the spindle, which way does the end hang: from the front or from the back?
Answer: From the front. This allows for easy access to the paper and creates an aesthetically soothing presentation.
