00:00Pringles tubes are made from a mixture of paper, plastic, and metal,
00:04which makes them a good option to organize groceries.
00:07You can paint the tubes in a plain color to make them match your stylish, minimalistic kitchen
00:12and then attach removable labels on the side.
00:15Have you ever struggled with threading a needle?
00:18Here's an easy way out.
00:20Place your toothbrush on the table and put the thread across the bristles of the brush.
00:25Now gently push the needle down over the top.
00:28The bristles will help you poke the thread up through the eye effortlessly.
00:32Once you've got the loop, just use your fingers to pull it through.
00:36If you've got these annoying tea stains on your favorite mug that won't wash off,
00:41try to apply some toothpaste to your sponge.
00:44This is also applicable when you need to make your dirty cutlery shot.
00:48It's best to use a mildly abrasive sponge.
00:51It's pretty helpful when it comes to removing dark spots on dishes.
00:54Now let's say you've recently received a really gorgeous bouquet,
00:59but the flowers got this sad look in a blink of an eye.
01:02You can extend their living very easily and almost free of charge.
01:07First, fill the vase or vase with fresh water and put a couple of teaspoons of sugar.
01:13This will help to nourish the flowers.
01:16Before you put the flowers back into the vase, cut about an inch off the stem.
01:20But make sure to slice it at an angle like this.
01:24This trick will increase the surface of water absorption.
01:27Repeat this with all the stems, especially with hard ones.
01:31Now put the bouquet back into the vase or vase.
01:34The flowers should cheer up within 12 hours.
01:37If you suffer from cold feet, put them into a vase or vase.
01:42Now wait, use a hairdryer to warm up your slippers before using them.
01:46This tip is also applicable to your outdoor winter shoes.
01:50Speaking of feet, pew!
01:52There's a great way to get rid of unpleasant smells.
01:55Apply about 10 drops of your favorite essential oil on two cotton balls.
02:00Now place the balls into the shoes and leave them overnight.
02:04Remove them in the morning and enjoy the fancy smell.
02:07You can also mix a couple of your favorite fragrances to customize your shoe fragrance even more.
02:13If your drain is a bit dirty and smelly, there's an epic tip to solve this issue.
02:19Put down a couple of spoonfuls of baking soda and pour down a little vinegar.
02:23And now step back and enjoy the show.
02:26It will foam up and help loosen any dirt.
02:29We've all tried to light a match outdoors in windy weather and failed.
02:33Well, we've been doing it all wrong.
02:35There's an easy way to prepare a matchstick in advance using a sharp knife.
02:40Carefully carve back the four corners just behind the head of the matchstick.
02:45Then repeat the same technique one more time so it looks like this.
02:49These eight little splinters will help create a stronger wind-resistant flame.
02:55If you have a small wardrobe with limited space for hanging new clothes, remove some metal pull tabs from the
03:01tops of old drinking cans.
03:03They can make the perfect holding loops for fixing the second hanger.
03:07Just put the ring over the hook.
03:09This is how you can double and even triple the storage space on one hanging rail.
03:15If you need to make an emergency candle, you can use one very common item from your fridge.
03:20Have you guessed what it is?
03:22Butter.
03:23Cut off a piece of chilled butter and place it on a heat-proof dish.
03:27Poke a hole straight down through the center using a toothpick or a wooden stick.
03:31Now we need a wick.
03:33You can use a common cotton string or twine.
03:36Cut the corresponding length and poke it through the hole so it goes all the way to the bottom of
03:41your candle.
03:41Gently coat the end of the wick with butter and light up your brand-new DIY candle.
03:47Use hair-straightening tongs to smooth out those annoying creases on your tie.
03:52Or, let's say you're working in a shop and you have to deal with fluffy piles of cash.
03:57The tongs will help you iron your money to put them in smaller stacks, which then fit neatly into your
04:03backpack.
04:04Hey, let's not go there.
04:06Wow, this zipper is tough.
04:08Why can't it slide smoothly like all other zippers?
04:12But don't rush to throw away your coat.
04:15Grab a bar of soap and gently rub it up and down against the zipper.
04:19Repeat it on both sides.
04:21Can you feel the difference?
04:23Cut one leg off your old tights and put two long cardboard tubes inside it.
04:28Go ahead and thread it under your internal door with one tube on each side.
04:32This will protect you from any draft because the tights will seal up any gap under the floor.
04:38You can also use this trick when you need to make a full block out in the room.
04:42Just make sure to use thick black tights.
04:45Let's say you're visiting a conference in another city and your schedule will be very busy.
04:51You can prepare your outfits for each day in advance and put them into different compartments of your hanging clothes
04:57storage organizer this way.
04:59Now, put it right down into your suitcase, zip it, and you're ready to go.
05:04When you arrive at the hotel, you can just carefully pull out this organizer and hang it in the closet
05:10in just two seconds.
05:11But don't forget to take the shoes, too.
05:14You see these blades?
05:15They have notched corners to make your cutting experience smoother.
05:20The front edge notch helps with separating blades during manufacturing, while the trailing edge notch helps the blade glide easily.
05:28And a fun fact!
05:29That notch on the front also helps you spot unused sections of the blade.
05:34Just a little visual indicator to make your life easier.
05:37When it comes to silver versus black blades, they're both made from the same stuff.
05:42But black blades are sharper and are better suited for cutting through tough materials.
05:47While silver blades strike a balance between cutting power and durability.
05:52If you want that extra cutting oomph, go for black.
05:55Oh, almost forgot.
05:57The only thing those blades aren't meant to cut is food.
06:00It has a rust-proofing oil coating, which is not safe for humans.
06:06Check this one out.
06:07It's totally giving me childhood vibes.
06:09Now, I remember my grandma having tomato-shaped pin cushions just like this.
06:14And sometimes they would look more like a salad, with a little pepper thrown in there.
06:19Well, believe it or not, this salad actually has a purpose.
06:23The tomato keeps your pins in place, while the pepper keeps them sharp.
06:28Those peppers are filled with sand, which helps keep your pins nice and sharp.
06:32And it's not just sand.
06:34Crushed walnuts can also be used to keep your pins in tip-top shape.
06:39Now, look at this multiple pocket tool and this little hook on it.
06:43It's a bit of a mystery, but it's actually pretty handy.
06:47I counted at least four different applications.
06:50One, you can use it to carry all sorts of awkward stuff, like camping gear or heavy parcels.
06:56Two, need to twist some wire or play around with knots?
06:59One, the parcel hook has got you covered.
07:02Three, this hook can save the day with those stubborn zippers, like the ones on your luggage.
07:08Four, it's great for pretending to be a budget version of Captain Hook.
07:12If you know more applications, let me know in the comments.
07:17Apple users, with this feature, you'll never get laundry surprises again.
07:21Now, I bet you've had this situation at least once in your life.
07:25You wash your stuff, and when you take it out of the washing machine, the size seems to only fit
07:31your cat.
07:32Your iPhone camera can actually translate those funky laundry symbols for you.
07:36There are two requirements, though.
07:38You must have iOS 17, and your phone must be in English.
07:42Take a photo of the care label, go to the Photos app, and see the details of the image.
07:47Everything will be automatically decoded and explained to you.
07:52Now, many toasters come with nifty, removable crumb trays at the bottom.
07:57It's super important to give these trays a good clean every now and then to keep your toaster running smoothly
08:03and avoid any potential fire hazards.
08:06Just pop them out, shake out the crumbs, and you're good to go.
08:09Where you shake them out is up to you.
08:12Those little compartments on your gas pump aren't just for show.
08:15They're actually there to hold your cap while you're filling up.
08:18This nifty feature keeps things tidy and prevents any spills or drips on the handle.
08:24So, say goodbye to messy refueling experiences and hello to a cleaner pump.
08:29Plus, it makes the whole process way more convenient and efficient.
08:35Now, I'll bet your oven gets so greasy and dirty sometimes that you can even hear it oink.
08:40Just kidding.
08:41I know you're a tidy person.
08:44Anyway, if you're looking for a way to bring your kitchen cleaning to a whole new level, here's a tip
08:49for you.
08:50Most oven doors have handy latches that let you pop the door off for easy cleaning, saving your poor back
08:57from the strain.
08:59When you're draining noodles or potatoes, there's no need to bother transferring everything to a colander in the sink.
09:05Just throw the colander right into the pot, hold it down, and pour the liquid out.
09:11It makes life so much easier, especially when you want to save that starchy water for recipes.
09:16It's a must for authentic pasta, by the way.
09:21So, let's say you've snagged this gem at a thrift store a while back for just under a dollar.
09:26It's seen better days, serving as an ashtray, but you decide it's time to give it a new lease on
09:32life.
09:33Here's the lowdown on how to make it shine again.
09:36Mix up a solution of boiling water, baking soda, and table salt in a bowl lined with aluminum foil.
09:43Let the piece soak for about 15 minutes, and repeat this process three times.
09:49In between soaks, gently scrub any rough spots with a microfiber cloth.
09:54After the final soak, dry the piece off and rub on some toothpaste, baking soda, and peroxide.
10:00Buff out any remaining tarnish with a clean, dry microfiber cloth.
10:05Rinse it off, and now your piece is practically gleaming like a mirror.
10:11These aluminum foil boxes have nifty little tabs on the sides that make it super easy to grab a sheet
10:17without any hassle.
10:18It's like a fancy little bonus that makes the product a breeze and ensures you'll have a smooth sailing experience
10:25every time.
10:28Manual can openers often come with a handy built-in feature, also known as a bottle opener.
10:33It's like getting two tools in one.
10:35But did you know that this bottle opener actually has another useful function?
10:40It can help you loosen those stubborn, hard-to-open jars.
10:44Simply lift the lid slightly at a couple of points with the bottle opener,
10:49and then watch it as it effortlessly twists right off.
10:52Yeah!
10:55Okay, I just found that, apparently, you're supposed to save the first and last slices of a loaf of sliced
11:01bread for last.
11:02It's like a bread hack or something.
11:04Apparently, those end pieces help keep the rest of the bread fresher for longer,
11:08and you shouldn't eat them until you've devoured the rest of the loaf.
11:12So, next time you're making a sandwich, save those heel slices for the very end.
11:17Even bread eating needs a good strategy.
11:20Now, look at those blue levers on the top rack of your dishwasher.
11:24I was curious about them, too.
11:26And it turns out they are actually water bottle sprayers.
11:29They help to ensure that your bottles get a thorough cleaning and rinse during the wash cycle.
11:36Many vegetable peelers have those little scoops on top for taking out the eyes from potatoes.
11:41And here's a cool tip.
11:43You can actually use vegetable peelers in both directions to peel faster.
11:47But most people just stick to one direction.
11:52When using yellow mustard, make sure to push the lid of the bottle all the way open until you hear
11:57a satisfying click.
11:59This way, the lid will stay securely in place and won't get in the way when you're dispensing the mustard
12:04onto your food.
12:05It's a simple step that can make your condiment experience hassle-free and enjoyable.
12:11So there!
12:13You know that little hole at the end of your pot or pan?
12:16Well, it's not just for show.
12:18You can actually use it as a handy holder for your forks and spoons.
12:22Next time you're cooking up a storm in the kitchen,
12:25just pop your utensils in that convenient little hole and keep them close at hand.
12:31Okay, just a heads up to remember to switch the direction of your ceiling fan for the changing weather.
12:37And to give it a good clean, too.
12:39I've seen that a lot of folks found it helpful before to reverse the fan's direction by flipping a switch
12:46for different seasons.
12:47So this is just a friendly reminder to go ahead and do it again,
12:51pushing hot air down and pulling cold air up.
12:56When you're chowing down for some pizza,
12:59just tear off the top of the box and use it as a big old plate.
13:03You can even rip the box in half and fold it to save some leftovers for later.
13:08Well, that's it for today.
13:09What? You want to know more cool facts?
13:12Sure, but you'll have to subscribe and hit the bell to get more videos.
13:16I'm waiting. Go ahead.
13:21If you ever find yourself stuck in the trunk of your car, stay calm.
13:25All cars are supposed to be equipped with an emergency latch to help open the trunk from the inside in
13:31the unlikely case it happens.
13:33These latches are so well thought out that they can be opened by people of all ages.
13:38More so, handles are designed to glow in the dark, too.
13:42You can even pull them with a mouth if there's not enough wiggle room to use your hands.
13:46Never mind how you ended up in the trunk in the first place.
13:49Moving on.
13:50If you're ever working with needle and thread, remember, you don't need to stick the needle directly into the spool.
13:57You may end up losing the needle altogether.
14:00Not to mention, you can easily hurt your fingers.
14:02A lot of modern sewing kits these days come with a designated place for safeguarding the needles.
14:08It's located at the bottom part of the thread spool.
14:11You'll just need to pull it out.
14:13It's even made to hold multiple sewing needles at a time.
14:17Disposable ballpoint pens come with a little secret of their own.
14:21Did you ever notice that in some of them, there's a small hole in the plastic part?
14:26It's actually a rudimentary ventilation system.
14:29It's supposed to let the ink easily make it to the tip of the pen.
14:33Okay, I know it's in the name, but you really don't need to shake the seasoning shaker to get any
14:39product out.
14:40Don't believe me?
14:41Hey, you're not the only one.
14:43Go grab your favorite seasoning bottle out of your pantry.
14:46If it has one of those removable plastic caps, it's perfect for the experiment.
14:51Instead of shaking the bottle, try holding it from the plastic cap while it's upside down.
14:57Now gently twist the bottle from side to side and, before you know it, you get some gorgeously flowing seasoning
15:04without having to wiggle the shaker and make a mess all over the stove.
15:08On the same note, most salt and pepper shakers should have ridges on the bottom of the glass portion.
15:15In case you get any seasoning stuck in there, place the bottom of the salt shaker against the bottom of
15:20the pepper shaker and wiggle it around so the ridges click with each other.
15:24The seasoning should easily pour out now without you having to open the bottle.
15:29In colder weather, you often have so many clothing layers on you that you can hardly feel the purse or
15:36back straps on your shoulder anymore, not to mention how fast they can slide off.
15:40Some jackets come with a built-in solution for that, in the form of a small tab on the shoulder
15:46with either a hook or a button.
15:48It's meant to be opened and closed comfortably, so you can keep your purse in place at any time.
15:55You're most likely using it merely to peel the skin of potatoes, carrots, or cucumbers.
16:00But you can use your vegetable peeler for chopping fine strips of onion as well.
16:05Just cut the onion into quarters vertically and then start slicing.
16:10This might also help out with those embarrassing onion tears.
16:14Most people miss this one, but should you ever have a closer look at your toothpaste tube, you will surely
16:20see some sort of coloring there, either a dot or a block.
16:25Colors can vary. They can be black, green, red, or even blue.
16:29These color spots are actually meant to help the assembly machines back at the toothpaste factory.
16:34They recognize when and where these machines need to cut the toothpaste tubes and proceed to fold them for packaging.
16:41For most types of footwear, if there's anything that seems a bit out of place, always know that it's there
16:47for a reason.
16:48Most manufacturers don't put extra items on shoes just for fun.
16:52It would definitely be a waste of time and resources.
16:55For footwear, like boots, for example, there's often a small loop at the top back of the shoe.
17:01It's there to help you when you need to put the shoe on, since you can quickly pull on it.
17:06Plus, you can also hang the shoes somewhere, most likely to dry, since most boots are meant to be worn
17:12in the colder weather.
17:13Now, I've been guilty at least once of overdressing with a bunch of layers, just so I won't need to
17:19jam everything in my check-in bag.
17:21But does it become a problem when you actually have to get seated?
17:25What do you do with your coat or your jacket?
17:28Well, have a closer look next time you board a plane on the seat in front of you.
17:33The hook that keeps the tray table upright can double as a jacket hook.
17:38As long as you don't need to have any meals while in the air, you're good to go.
17:42Now, most mascaras expire within 3-6 months, I'm told, depending on the manufacturer.
17:48But you can help speed up that process if you're not careful enough.
17:53Continuously pumping the mascara wand, trying to mix in the product, actually pushes more air into the tube.
17:59This can make it dry much faster, and you evidently won't get the desired results with it anymore.
18:05There's an easy way to check if your mascara is still good enough to use.
18:09If you don't hear a popping noise when you take the brush out, you may very well need to go
18:15get yourself a new mascara tube.
18:17Now, I know we're living in the era of Bluetooth-connected devices.
18:22But for better quality sound, they still recommend using headphones that connect via audio jacks.
18:28Remember seeing black ridges on those jacks?
18:31They aren't there just to make them fit when you plug them into your phone or laptop.
18:35Made out of a special insulating material, these bands are meant to guard the wires when sound is being transmitted.
18:43Based on the number of bands, you can figure out which end goes where.
18:47Some empty space under noodles in a cup doesn't mean the company producing them wants to cheat you out of
18:53a full portion.
18:54No, no.
18:55It's a manner of keeping the noodles intact during their transportation.
18:58It also helps with the circulation of hot water that is poured over the products before you can enjoy them.
19:05The V-shaped neckline was initially designed to serve a bunch of objectives.
19:09First, as a way of prolonging the life of the garment that would maintain its shape over the years.
19:15It's also there to fit your head through the shirt in case it needs some stretching.
19:19This way, it ensures a snugger grip around the neck.
19:23Lastly, it helps absorb sweat in case you're wearing the shirt while exercising.
19:28Now, it's not necessarily a custom anymore, but you may have stumbled upon a dinner jacket with an additional mysterious
19:35pocket on the right side.
19:37Turns out, this pocket was used by men to easily reach their train tickets, since most of them had to
19:43travel to work every day.
19:45It helped them keep their jacket buttoned up, but also benefited from the use of a pocket.
19:50Now, it's only added as a decoration, and it doesn't serve an actual purpose anymore.
19:56Speaking of things we don't use these days, or at least for their initial purpose, did you know Play-Doh
20:02was originally a cleaning product?
20:04In the 1920s, the market was in need of a product that could help them wipe the wallpapered areas around
20:10coal-burning furnaces.
20:11The recipe for what we now know as Play-Doh was thus invented.
20:16It was manufactured in white only, and was supposed to clean wallpaper by being rolled back and forth over the
20:23dirt.
20:23It was only later, in the 1940s, that new products for cleaning wallpaper were brought up, and Play-Doh was
20:30redirected toward another area of the market.
20:33Now, while I enjoy a nice piece of toast for breakfast, isn't it pesky to have to clean out the
20:40toaster?
20:40Well, not anymore, since I recently found out that toasters have a slide or a panel at the bottom that
20:47helps get rid of all those annoying breadcrumbs easily.
20:53Now, there used to be a time when you could only have access to video games by inserting cartridges in
20:59your console of choice.
21:01These tiny objects gave many doctors a lot of headaches.
21:04People soon started popping up in hospitals after swallowing small game cartridges, especially the younger generation.
21:12Nintendo, the company that manufactures the majority of these devices, had to come up with a creative solution to prevent
21:19these accidents.
21:20So, these days, Nintendo Switch cartridges are purposely coated with specific chemicals that can leave a really bad, bitter taste
21:28in the mouth.
21:29Not that I'd, you know, recommend you ever try and taste for yourself.
21:34Now, here's a trick.
21:35Instead of putting the box grater vertically on top of a plate, put it horizontally, with no plate underneath, of
21:42course.
21:42This way, you won't risk scraping your knuckles, because only your fingertips will eventually touch the grater when you reach
21:48the end of the process.
21:49Also, it gives the grater more stability, when otherwise, you'd have to balance the grater or even hold it in
21:55the air with the other hand.
21:57When you're done, or when there's just too much grated stuff on the bottom wall of the grater,
22:02simply turn it on its side to pour the contents into the bowl or plate.
22:06Flowers in a vase would stay fresher for longer if not for the bacteria that breed in the water.
22:11Since copper has some antibacterial properties, dropping a penny into the water will help keep the microbes at bay and
22:19let you enjoy your flowers for that little bit longer.
22:22An easy way to check if your bed linen has dried completely is to put a small mirror in between
22:28the layers for about 5 minutes.
22:29If the mirror has steamed up when you pick it up, it means the sheets are still a bit damp.
22:43If you have a not-very-healthy habit of eating in front of your computer, you'll be surprised at how
22:51much crumbs and grime there is inside your keyboard.
22:54Now, you can just turn it over and shake it vigorously, of course, but that's not very good for any
22:59piece of tech, you know.
23:01So instead, take a post-it note and run its sticky part over the keyboard.
23:06It will collect the little pieces of trash like magic.
23:09Even a better way to do it, though, is to take a slime and stick it to the keyboard,
23:14then take it away, squeeze it, and stick again in another part.
23:17The slime will fill the entire space between the keys, and its sticky properties will let it gather every little
23:24bit of garbage.
23:26Separating egg yolks from whites is easier using a plastic bottle.
23:30Break the necessary number of eggs into a bowl, and then take an empty plastic bottle and squeeze it.
23:36Hold the bottle over the yolk and release.
23:38It'll pull in air and the yolk together, leaving the white in the bowl.
23:43Repeat with the rest of the yolks, and you're done!
23:45And that's no yolk!
23:48If you're tired of spitting out the stones when eating cherries or want to make a cherry pie, push the
23:53stones out with a straw.
23:55Also, many garlic presses have a special tool on their handle that can be used exactly for that.
24:01Cleaning a blender can be a nuisance if you do it manually.
24:05Instead, fill it with hot water and add some liquid soap or detergent, then run it for about 10 seconds.
24:11Rinse it afterwards, and it's clean!
24:13Plaster walls can crumble, flake, and spread dust all over the floor when you hammer nails into it.
24:19Cut a strip of masking tape and stick it to the place you want to hammer a nail in.
24:24The tape won't let the plaster crack and crumble, leaving the hole neat and clean.
24:29Small scratches and dents on wooden furniture can be removed with some toothpaste or a walnut.
24:35For toothpaste, rub a pea-sized amount of it into the scratch until it's gone, then wipe the leftovers with
24:42a damp cloth.
24:43For a walnut, take a half of that brain-shaped nut and rub it into the dent.
24:48Then rub the area with your fingers and buff it with a soft cloth.
24:52This'll help the wood absorb the oil from the nut, making the scratch sealed and gone.
24:58The sticky residue on jars left after you remove the stickers won't be easily removed by water and detergent.
25:04So, take some vegetable oil instead.
25:07Soak a cotton pad in it and wipe the sticky surface.
25:10Let it sit for a while and then wash the oil away together with the residue.
25:15If you can't comfortably reach the wick of a candle with a lighter, hey, take a stick of spaghetti.
25:21Light up its end, and you'll get a burning stick that's easy to use for hard-to-reach places.
25:27Now, next time your razor blade's getting dull, try rubbing it backwards on a pair of jeans for regular upkeep.
25:34Not while you're wearing them, of course.
25:36Make sure you keep the blades dry, too, or even kept in mineral oil.
25:40That'll stop them from rusting.
25:41Keep all those jelly, ketchup, peanut butter, and mayo fresher for longer in your fridge by turning the contents upside
25:49down.
25:50This creates a partial vacuum inside the container, helping prevent mold growth.
25:55Storing ice cream upside down will prevent freezer burn, too.
25:59To bring your permanent marker back to life, simply put a few drops of rubbing alcohol into the felt material
26:05inside and shake.
26:06Once the felt absorbs the rubbing alcohol for a couple of minutes, the marker will be almost as good as
26:12new.
26:13Now, don't keep throwing away lettuce that goes black too quickly.
26:17Covering it with a dry paper towel and then placing it in an airtight container will help it keep fresher
26:23for much longer.
26:24This goes for any leafy greens you've got leftovers of.
26:28That sharpish bit sticking out of the cap of your favorite cream is there for a reason.
26:34These tubes are usually sealed with foil, so unless you love breaking your nails trying to open them, just flip
26:39the cap over and push.
26:41Your bobby pins might not stay in place if the grooves aren't facing the right way.
26:46They should always be on the bottom, close to your head.
26:50Still coming loose?
26:51Well, put a squeeze of hairspray right onto the bobby pin before you put it in your hair.
26:56Now, your cotton rounds pack has those strings on it, so you can hang it on a handy hook in
27:01the bathroom.
27:02But there's no need to loosen and tighten it back up every time.
27:06Check out the bottom of the pack.
27:08It has a perforated line.
27:10Tear it open carefully, and you're good to go.
27:13Two zips too much?
27:15Maybe.
27:15But they come in handy as a clever anti-theft device.
27:18Just lock them together.
27:20Now, no one can open your backpack.
27:23Don't have a lock on you?
27:24You can also tie them together with some string, or even just a paper clip.
27:29Anything to slow those pickpockets down.
27:31That tiny little button on the back of a shirt collar is used to hold your tie in place.
27:36Hey, you don't want your tie trying to escape back there.
27:40Shoe manufacturers care about their customers.
27:43So, most running shoes now have a special anti-blister system pre-installed.
27:48Sounds intense, but it's basically just that extra hole on top of your sneakers.
27:53Make a loop with the extra hole, inserting the lace backward.
27:57Cross your laces and put them through the loops.
27:59Now, pull the laces down to lock your foot in place.
28:03Now, run.
28:04Yeah, go ahead.
28:06Car headrests are all about comfort, and detachable headrests are all about safety.
28:10If you pull the headrest out, you'll see two sturdy metal bars.
28:15If you ever get locked or trapped in your car, you can use the bars to smash the window and
28:20get out.
28:21If you've got some pesky parsley stuck in your teeth, try this tip.
28:26It can be hard to get it out with loose floss.
28:28You need more tension, so just tie it in a knot.
28:32It's not an accident that soy sauce bottles have two spouts.
28:36The sauce is liquid, and it flows out of the bottle pretty easily once you turn it over.
28:41Most Asian food lovers have spilled it at least once in a lifetime.
28:45That's why nowadays, restaurants prefer serving soy sauce in special bottles that have two spouts.
28:51This design allows you to control when and how much sauce will come out.
28:55Just put your finger on one spout when you pour the sauce through another.
28:59If you press your finger tightly to the spout, the sauce will stop flowing,
29:03and if you remove your finger, it'll flow again.
29:06And don't forget to ask your server,
29:09Hey, wasabi!
29:10Alright.
29:11A hair straightener is an excellent tool, not only for treating your natural curls,
29:16but also for fixing crumpled money or documents.
29:19You can also use a regular iron for this purpose.
29:22Just make sure you don't turn on steaming mode.
29:25Otherwise, there's a risk of damaging the paper.
29:28Hairbands are good not only for getting your hair done,
29:31but also to open a glass jar with canned food.
29:34Your hands might slip on the tightly closed lid,
29:36and if you don't open the can from the first attempt,
29:39your palms tend to get sweaty, making the task virtually impossible.
29:44So, put a hairband on the lid to fix your hand
29:47and make your grass stronger.
29:49A simple rubber band will do as well.
29:52Now, it's time to take my sweaty palms and go.
