Just in case anyone wants their freezer to live beyond this immediate lack of self-control: never do that. Always simply defrost it.

Anyways. That was my party-pooper post for the day. Have a great one, all.

Even more importantly, your freezer shouldn't be building up ice like that and might need a new seal.

Never realized this. I vow to spread the word

My very first place, gf at the time used a butter knife to chip out ice from the freezer. Yeah, had to buy a new one.

Knowing this, and that a coworker wanted to do the same with the mini fridge I of course warn them about how easy it is to puncture the refrigeration line. And yeah another dead fridge.

a noble fridge was lost... but what was gained??

Is the risk that you might hit something important under the ice?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Yes. Or pry up some part that shouldn't.

Plus, it's one of the best ways to ruin a cleaver.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

Yes. You'd be surprised how thin these walls are. You puncture them effortlessly. And thereby ruin the freezer effortlessly.

I came here to say that. Just melt it and then turn it back on after.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

what I'm hearing is that the cleaver will need other uses formulated.

[–] finitebanjo 6 points 5 days ago

You could just twist and roll the shit out of some bread dough if you're feeling industrious. You want a danish recipe?

unpacking the grocery bags and there's just not... enough... room...

the cleaver was right on hand and i am ooOHHh sooooo satisfied.
