there's no reason it can't be both.

If it's stupid and it works, it's still stupid, but can be improved on until it isn't.

Nice title

Some of these were still pretty stupid

The upside-down stool garbage bag holder is genius! Everything else is lazysilly.

As an engineer: The shopping trolley one is only good if its not chrome plated, Straight stainless is great for grills...

#6 is dumb, the hangers get in the way, and shower curtain rings are like $1-5 and you'll have them forever. this actually takes more effort

My wife once tried to heat up a sausage roll in a toaster.

I'm not certain on the effectiveness of #1 but the person is listening to 'Sounds of a Playground Fading' by In Flames, which is nice.
DAMMITSTOPSTEALINGMYFAVORITEUSERNAMES
I haven't tried that way but I've tried something similar with just shoving my phone into a cup

That Mountain Dew shower head must have a ton of backpressure

sweet, first pic the person is listening to In Flames' album Sounds of a Playground Fading. I love where dead the ships dwell from that

It's 98% "I can't believe it's not milk."

2% fat milk.

If you're in the military, then it's still stupid and you get an article 15 for it. Unless you're deployed, then you get a medal.
rjmtl
What is article 15?
masterchieffloyd
It's a formal punishment that is milder than a court-marshal.
KingPotatow
quick google search results:allows commanders to resolve allegations of minor misconduct without a higher discipline, like a court-marshal
ElatedSacrifice
Ok the last one looks like it would take more effort, and more tools than it would cost to buy a cheap ass pizza cutter
TheNonInsestuousJaime
sometimes, even if it works, it is stupid...
25schmeckles
One time I picked up a pizza from a local mom and pop pizzeria and they left one in there
Imacarrotforyou
For real.
CaptainJackJack
Also, cutting on what looks to be a Teflon coated pan. Ruined.
sorryicameinyourhairhoney
Ass pizza, you say?
eromitlab
Seriously. I have three pizza cutters, combined they cost about $5.
ihatebeingcreative
Or to fold up the pizza and eat it like a taco!
ElatedSacrifice
you're a genius and I love the way you think
t113
sometimes you have time and effort and $1.86 to your name
ticktockbent
The dollar store near me sells pizza cutters
t113
maybe you want the dollar store peanut butter instead of the dollar store pizza cutters
ticktockbent
that's why you budget and cooperate with roommates. One of you buys the cutter, one of you gets the peanut butter, then you share
t113
i guess what i'm getting at is that buying a pizza cutter may not be a priority when you're hungry and broke.
R7D5
Or use scissors?
daementia
Seriously.
twisyangel
I just use a knife like a fool.
Katalliaan
I do the same - take a fairly large knife and just work my way across the pizza. Works better than the pizza cutters we have, I find.
DeathByTeacup
I've seen my mother use kitchen scissors more than once.
four2
Your mother is a wise woman. Scissors are often not used as much as they could be in the kitchen.
datumerrata
but the pizza cutter is at the store. The ruler and riveter are right here.
ElatedSacrifice
I have owned two different pizza cutters and never one riveter or a steel ruler
datumerrata
I have like 5 steel rulers and 2 riveters. I don't have a pizza cutter. We live different lifestyles.
ElatedSacrifice
indeed
SparklingCockWaffle
Riveter? I thought it was the top to a metal can :-x
natebauer
It is the top of a can. The rivet is what's holding that on the ruler.
SparklingCockWaffle
Oooh didn't look that closely. Just assumed a screw. Thanks for clarifying

I couldn't tell if airplane or movie theater.
GoldberrySassdaughter
The spaghetti one doesn't work. Because it takes time for some of it to end up in the water, some of your spaghetti is more/less cooked
mrcalifornian
you could flip it midway through
gondring
From actually experience, it *does* work. The difference isn't that great.
erikteichmann
Guys. Just break the spaghetti in half...
MatthewRivas
As long as its cooked its fine, I mean you are cooking it in a coffee pot.
SnoodyQ
I think it works but you wouldn't be able to stir it looks that and it'd all stick together.

InboxMeYourJoldenRetrievers
or you know, use the lid.
Gilgamech
What lid, the one that didn't come with it?
Twist1000
You can basically use any lid

lelax
And if you don't have pasta?
Gilgamech
I just strained some beans with this cheese grater. Earlier I strained vegetables. Before that I strained my funny bone.
prattleassassin
Use cereal boxes cut in strips
MathiasTolerain
Obvious question: why would one have a tennis racket and not a pasta strainer?
MyMiddleNameIsAllen
College athlete.
kukbert
Because one has bought a tennis racket but not a strainer.
phillippecousteau
Roger Federer leaves the house. Two bags sit near the door. He forgets one. Luckily, the one he brings has tennis racket. Pasta strainer no.

CirB
Well, after this use they probably didn't have a usable tennis racket either. I'm pretty sure that would've spoiled the strings.
SpecimenSpiff
Because they didn't have a pasta strainer, but did have a tennis racket?

Suppose I shoulda seen this one coming :-p.

Because you can strain pasta with a tennis racket, but you can't play tennis with a pasta strainer.

thrael
I don't understand the point of the first one
MartinQBlank
They rigged up a set of speakers, looks like. Not sure if that would work tho.
Echo18
It's better than nothing. Phone speakers generally suck ass.
scabab
those are not speakers. those are milk jugs.
HighFive1
It does, but would have done the same if they just set it in a bowl
governmentgavemeagun
The sound is supposed to travel through the cardboard tube and out of the jugs, to be louder. Probably sounds gobshite though.
iamagrocerybag
A gobshite is someone who talks a lot of loud shit...
iamagrocerybag
It literally means mouth shit. A sound can't be a mouth shit.
WeaverOfDreamsAtTheLoomOfTheMind3
Audio enhancement.
thrael
oh.. could do that with just half of that cardboard tube..
WeaverOfDreamsAtTheLoomOfTheMind3
I believe the jugs allow for a stereo effect.
thrael
I have no idea what that phone is, but it's not a stereo effect when it's just one speaker going to both channels (jugs)
WeaverOfDreamsAtTheLoomOfTheMind3
Well... wait... why not? What does stereo have to entail?
WeaverOfDreamsAtTheLoomOfTheMind3
That plate covered in wrap... I like that.
TheDogfart
paper plates work better
lindyconnor
I don't get it? Does it mean they didn't wash the dish underneath?
WeaverOfDreamsAtTheLoomOfTheMind3
Yes. Just remove the wrap, throw away, put back clean plate without having to run any water or appliance.
lindyconnor
I guess I would never. These people should have a 'go fund me' page, I would go to Ikea and buy them what they need to live like humans.
WeaverOfDreamsAtTheLoomOfTheMind3
"Living like humans" can vary drastically from human to human.
lindyconnor
then i'll qualify, like me, dirtying dishes and using proper utensils.
Foxxycosplays
Good luck eating something you have to cut.
WeaverOfDreamsAtTheLoomOfTheMind3
Perhaps... perhizzle... it's not intended for items you have to cut; much like spoons.
ZachPutland
I prefer paper plates
InboxMeYourJoldenRetrievers
Imagine having a cup of tea in wrap in the cup.

Nice.
GoogleFucker
Mmmmm, melted plastic
costalotmore
whats the purpose of this explain it for a friend?
WeaverOfDreamsAtTheLoomOfTheMind3
The plate doesn't get dirty, which means you don't have to wash it. Just throw away the wrap.
captainhowel
Oh, the wrap is UNDER the food! I stared at the photo for like 10 minutes not getting what the "trick" was. Thanks mang.
WeaverOfDreamsAtTheLoomOfTheMind3
Anytime, fam!
TheMaXX37
Yea! Fuck nature, cuz I'm a lazy piece of shit who can't wash a single dish. (not against you, and don't give a fuck how many -1's I get)
SpecimenSpiff
Alrighty then.
ironfang69
using water and soap is bad for the environment too.
gunnexx
lolsoap
TheMaXX37
Science has proven plastic products like that wrap -are- bad, where is your proof that "water and soap" are bad? Burden of proof is on you.
Runningwyeld
well, what if you poke a hole in the wrap. you're left with the same problem
WeaverOfDreamsAtTheLoomOfTheMind3
Don't poke a hole in the wrap.

I'm not in favor of using wire shelving as grills, but after the coating gets burned away they are safe enough.
