Adding salt to your ketchup when eating fries, instead of salting the fries. That way it’s always salty enough on every fry. Such an easy hack.
My ex (though really his mom i guess) taught me you can just run a half empty dishwasher. I grew up without a lot of money, so we weren’t running the dishwasher until it was full (big family, so pretty often). But when you’re one or two people, it never fills up so I was just hand washing dishes, hating my life. They ran the dishwasher every night no matter how full or empty it was. At 9pm, the dishwasher started. It’s stupid to say it changed my life, but now I just run it whenever I want. I also run my washing machine all the time and folding half loads is so much better, I no longer hate laundry.
My wife was like this when we met. She also grew up more poor than me. I still see her washing a lot of stuff by hand that should be in the dishwasher. Old habits die hard. The unspoken agreement is when we run out of a utensil, or get down to one, we run the dishwasher.
One thing my mom taught her through me is not putting good kitchen knives or any wood through the dishwasher.
Also, wood utensils, cutting boards, etc. need oiling. Just cheap mineral oil should do.
seems like a waste of energy
The dishwasher is generally more efficient than handwashing. It reuses the water, so you’re using less water. In terms of electricity usage, I’m seeing around 2 kWh for one load.
I mean it seems like a waste to run it if it is not full.
It’s like 3 gallons of hot water and a bit of soap.
Should cost less than 0.50¢
Does him teaching me how to kiss count?
My first serious boyfriend taught me how to change the oil, change a tire, and rotate the tires on my car. Also that I don’t like anal.
Hmmm. Technique and protocol is important in all of these.
Did it hurt?
Bahaha! Yeah, when he whipped out that 4-way tire iron…

Never heard a phallus called that. Youch
Rotating the tires is really important! I really hope you do it every month as the manufacturer requires. Few people do.
I applaud the first part.

Woohoo Let’s go on a date
I was raised in a relatively high wealth family. Not personal jet rich, but still rich enough that we were going on vacation to fancy places a lot, dad had pretty cars, a big house, we went on ski trips, and played golf, etc. My wife was raised by a single mother with a more or less absentee father, working where she could to raise her two girls.
I already knew I was lucky and privileged, my parents kept telling my siblings and I, but it never really registered to me just how much. The skill I learned a lot about is empathy, I think.
Suck the roof of your mouth with your tongue to stop a sneeze.

Pushing your tongue to the roof of your mouth can also stop “brain freeze” from cold foods/drinks.
