Salt and water over the bite, it'll stop itching in 30 seconds. Learned this while I was in Asia

The kitchen is the place I’m most likely to spill something on my feet in my home.

Unless you're allergic, in which case you try and try and try all of these things, always wondering why your friends think you're a wimp for hating mosquito bites so much, but they give you welts for days and you're sick of it, man!
Then this won't work for you.

my very successful realtor friend told me not to do it for this reason. it's an automatic red flag for most seasoned realtors

Reply to comment by tim36272 in LPT Request: Why is my tax return so low? by ChickenCheeks7
That’s a good strategy IF you have a steady income. I work in film. I had 24 different employers this year. I had all my W-2 jobs keep extra, so they’d balance out with my 1099s.
Which… I guess is actually still trying to have the refund/owed be $0, but since I’m guessing and have no idea how much I’ll make each year, I’d rather get a fat refund than owe come tax time.
I know it’s an interest free loan to the gov but I’m shit at saving so it works out okay for me

Heating a spoon with a cigarette lighter and pressing it against the bite will also help. It’s also a great way to have your friends throw you a surprise party/intervention when they find the charred spoon.

Reply to LPT Request: Healthcare providers & staff, what gift/gesture can patients give to show gratitude after a complicated birth by vco19
Nothing tangible-a good review or especially a call to a boss-a higher up, the higher the better-accepting gifts from patients is tricky and can cause problems.

Home Depot owns most brands that it sells.

We're still talking about neutralizing the itch of mosquito bites with hot water, right?

100%! I had issues installing a sink drain so I called their support (it wouldn’t stop leaking no matter what I did). A very candid employee told me that it was my fault for buying it from Home Depot. The drain portion is plastic in the Home Depot box and all metal if I bought directly from Kohler. I eventually ordered the proper metal one directly from them and it immediately attached (I could easily tighten it down) and it never leaked…I installed the plastic one 4-5 times and I couldn’t get it to not leak.
