Reply to LPT: Homeowners, get a box of pool noodles, I have found so many uses for mine that I have been glad to have them (I don't have a pool). by moviesetmonkey
At my work we have one covering a low ceiling edge near the bottom of the stairs. There’s a long 1/4 wedge cut from the noodle and fit along the edge. The no-noggin’-knockin’ noodle!

I don’t record them. I have the google drive app on my iPhone and when you go to your voicemails, select one and press the share button. You’ll then have the option to upload the voicemail to google drive as an audio recording.

Reply to comment by BigFatChungus1 in LPT : How to get better teeth. by BigFatChungus1
Yes it will end up damaging your enamel, baking soda is too abrasive. Use a whitening toothpaste like sensodyne or crest 2x daily, and floss! Find a dental hygiene school in your area for cheap cleanings and exams. Yellow stains can be from foods like tea, coffee, and cigarettes too so cut back on those if you use them.

I’m sorry for your loss. Dogs are like people, only better.

Wholeheartedly agree. To add to this LPT, also have friends, SO, anyone really, take photos of you and your pets, children, loved ones. When my best friend Argos (lab mix) passed from cancer, I only had TWO photos of me and him that were not selfies. I thankfully have tons of him being the goofball he was, like him "hiding" under the curtains and taking care of his best friend Ball (Ball was actually a ball, lol).
I try to make sure I get photos with those I love that are not from a selfie angle now, even if it's just lining up the phone and setting a timer.

And sometimes you know how, you are just too lazy to do it.

Reply to LPT: When your 3 year old keeps asking "why?" answer with "friction" to make it stop. by [deleted]
What you have just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Reply to LPT: boil rice until it’s almost fully cooked, drain, then return to pan, cover and steam on low heat for 10 mins. Tastes much better than boiling, draining and serving. by circumlocutious
Rice cooker, the only way to go. Unless you're doing boxes of rice-a-roni or something.

Right? I'm just looking at this sub through new cause I'm bored and holy shit. How have half these people not fallen on their own knife yet if life is so hard. Like is drink water seriously a pro tip? Are we going backwards?
The last thread I just left was saying give you're wife foreplay in bed. Like no shit? Is this kinda shit actually necessary to say? Pro tip, drink water! Pro tip, don't just ram your dick in a women, make sure she likes it! Man if people need the internet to tell them this stuff then we are honestly getting stupider as a species I swear.

Nah. I don't do shit because someone I don't know tells me to. Sounds like a terrible way to live life. I drink water when I'm thirsty, not when some stranger thinks I should

Brush twice per day. Wet your brush, then dip it in baking soda, then put on the toothpaste. That will help whiten your teeth a noticeable amount.

Yes.
Good life advice in general, but especially useful if you have roommates or kids around who you wouldn't want to hear

1). What’s so bad about starch? 2). I like my rice extra-starchy.

Oh, someone in the dental education system advocating for dental treatments? . How " unexpected ", 🙄 Trust me , I'm 46 , baking soda , twice weekly is fine, used with peroxide, the lower percent one . Keeps my teeth white and healthy . Both natural safe ingredients. Look at a toothpaste label, not so healthy stuff in there .
