You go to the ER and are triaged. Usually around an 8 hour wait... and most of the time they send you home with the wrong diagnosis so you go back the next day to wait again. If it's highly contagious I assume they put you in another room. It's a terrible system and I guarantee so many people are dying because of it.

It's cool. He should just have my haircut records. They were sent over from my mom in Texas.

OP didn’t even explain why this method is better. It just seems like a lot of extra work for a problem that doesn’t exist. I wrap mine in aluminum foil or throw is in a ziplock and have had zero problems thus far.

I haven't paid for a hair cut in over 10 years. Being bald has some benefits.

I'll remember to do this when my hair decides to grow. I'm sure it'll be any day now.

Not necessarily. I very rarely use my social media accounts for anything personal. I have to use them quite often for work, though.

I can't imagine wanting a new blanket. The only two criteria I use are "clean and warm" and those take a long time to fail.

Or just befriend your favourite barber so when you go there he just says “how you doing mate? The usual?”.
Always a pleasure to sit and have a little chat atleast for the first few minutes before it gets too noisy

I was just kidding because at the time of posting all the other comments were weird like this

Reply to LPT: Separate bacon into portions of 2-4 strips before freezing. That way, when you need them, it's easier to defrost only the number of portions you need directly in the pan, and you won't make a mess trying to separate (or cut) slippery, frozen bacon. by Professional_Trip217
You can do the same thing with large value packs of chicken, pork chops, or steak.

I hear InstaCart customers will wait until their grocery order is accepted and then they will go into the app to remove the tip and double the order.

iPhones automatically save your parking location. So, this tip isn’t really necessary for many people.

I had a roommate in college who pulled these same stunts. It got to the point where I just used paper plates and Styrofoam bowls. We had dirty dishes with rotting food that sat piled in the sink for days on end.

Reply to comment by vendetta2115 in LPT: put dishwasher detergent in your dishwasher as soon as you empty the clean dishes and you’ll never have to guess whether not the dishes are clean. If the detergent tray is empty, they’re clean; if it’s full, they’re dirty. by vendetta2115
If either rack is out, I can't see my detergent hatch. I'd have to close one or both racks to see that. Boooogus.

Why am I putting any of my pizza upside down? What is the point in that if I'm suppose to use paper between the slices?
Also, no.

I just go to the same hairdresser every four weeks. She remembers me and how I like it. I just say, "same as last time" and she knows
Been a satisfied customer for five years

It was asked 3 hours ago... relax. Answer is above. I never claimed it to be a good system.
