Wash dishes while you cook. It was a game-changer for me.

For those that enjoy eating peanut butter and banana sandwiches, use a hot dog bun for the bread. I know, it genius.

This one is sort of very specific and niche, but as a caregiver of someone with an ostomy, you can take a roll of this disposable plastic produce bags from the grocery store. Terrible for use as a produce bag because they're plastic and disposable and whatnot, but for bag empties when you need to use something disposable no matter what? They're invaluable.

Also doggy poop bags. Great for that. Just grab one of the small almost empty rolls, and tell the cashier "I'mma take these" and no one gives a shit

Next time you're eating the chips at a Mexican Restaurant, get a side of lemons/limes.

Apply citrus to chips and sprinkle desired salt amount.

The salt will stay on the zesty chips throughout the salsa dipping process.

Someone just suggested to me that I should be putting my chocolate bars in the freezer first. I've never heard of this, but apparently it's a thing that I've been missing out on for a while.

So I guess I'm the one who can't believe that I don't do it.

I feel like most intelligent people are now on the bidet bandwagon, but it still blows my mind how many people I know that still resist using one (even when readily available). Quit being fuckin disgusting!

Some of these same people wonder why their sex life is mediocre at best. Maybe it's your hygiene. Just sayin.
