Everyday tasks you never figured out

ooops
re putting on a suit jacket
and the thing is I have done this over 5000 times, but as soon as someones suggests that I'm doing it wrong, I feel like I'm an orangutan trying to dress himself :confused1:

How to go #1, without at least one drop landing outside the bowl... at least I'm resigned to noticing where the drop lands, and blotting it up every time.

Why don't you just sit?

Why don't you just sit?

Yuck.

 

[Jet]

Yuck.

???

I sit...

 

[Scientia]

Yuck.

See, you sit before you pee all over the toilet.

When I first read it I mixed up #1 with a #2 hahaha

Again
Yuck

Yuck
Anyhow, I don't like sitting in that setting because, depending on the design of the facilities, it risks contact with the yucky porcelain, or worse, the water.

*shiver*

Washing my car and not having a bird shit on it within 24 hours

Tying a tie...No matter how I look at it, can't seem to shake off the suspicion that the tie is the modern day ball and chain, but around the neck.

*shrugs *

I think I speak for most men when I say: Fuck ties.

Ties can be pretty hot, though, and you guys can use your 'I hate ties; how do they even?' to your advantage. Get a woman/person you think is spicy to put one on for you. Or take it off.

That head isn't just a hat rack, hmm?

Of what? Admitting that they can't do stuff? The random sexual confessions thread is like 9 pages long! This is tame. *moves to the side as huge crowd rushes to read sexual confessions*
Crickets.

I'm laughing!

I am baffled at how I can be so advanced with some things, like explaining high level concepts to students so that they understand almost immediately, but there are still everyday things they seem to come so easily to others that I have not quite figured out yet, like properly organizing my shoes so that I can find the ones I need in less than five minutes.

Also, I can write a great logical argument for or against almost anything in a matter of minutes and I can easily paint or sew or play an instrument well but I have not mastered the art of peeling a hard boiled egg without removing some of the white with the shell.

For some reason, this really bothers me today. It's not laziness. I have taken the time to organize my shoes to no avail and have tried everything with those damn eggs lol. I have come to the conclusion that I am just a clumsy dork with some things.

Do you have an everyday task that should come easily but you can't quite get the hang of?

I'm having a hard time posting new threads on this site. I can't find the link half the time!

how to fold fitted sheets in 30secs =

perfect hard boiled = 5mins to boiling + 5mins boiling poit + 5mins of setting (stove off leave it there) = perfect eggs and crack the bottom round part.

i do not know how to use a peeler. i peel my skin too when i use it........ it's evil...

Wow! That's amazing!
BURN The WITCH!

I forget about all my posts of infancy. It's refreshing to go back and read over the threads.

I saw a Youtube video on removing eggs from shells. Search for it. I think your supposed to dunk them in ice water or Something and then they fall right out.

How one of the socks is always missing?! Always losing a pair. The washing machine eats them, I'm sure lol. It's a mystery.

Or... Then I just wash a sock without its pair, oops!
