Tic-Tac
How you’re using it: Shaking that thing.
There’s a cool way to dispense your favorite ovoid breath mints. With the lid closed, just tilt the container on its side, and then open the flap. A Tic-Tac will be resting right there.
Ketchup Tubs
How you’re using it: Not unlocking the potential.
They can unfold into something more oval in shape, with a greater capacity. Get your ketchup on, without getting your ketchup on you.
To-Go cups
How you’re using it: As a lid.
Just flip that bad boy over and plop the bottom of the cup into the concavity to create a makeshift cup holder. It will even travel with you from the coffee table to your mouth, without losing a drop of condensation to your sick veneer.
Sidewalks
How you’re using it: Like a tourist.
Sidewalks are meant as two-way avenues so that traffic can flow continuously; the cracks are meant to guide you. Some people have places to go!
Plungers
How you’re using it: You just have the wrong one.
They are actually designed for sinks. What you need is a bad boy that really has enough air space, the only such device that will provide you the suction required to get your pipes moving again. Plunge on!
Toilet Seat Covers
How you’re using it: Totally backwards.
You ever wonder why your toilet seat cover falls into the water the moment you try and sit down on it? Conventional wisdom says to put the little flap behind you on the seat before you squat. But this is straight up wrong. Put it in the front, and it will stay in place.
