Thanks pinterest.

It didn't work. The Aloe Vera didn't relieve my sunburn and tasted horrible. 1/10 Would not recommend.

You have to use your wallet to "hack" stores and get most of these to work. i.e. The oreo holder, paintbuddy, etc

We went over this last time, DO NOT use rain gutters on the side of your house to grow plants. It will RUIN your WALL.
DracoMDK
how do you figure that
TheUniverseIsLaughingAtMe
I agree. I do not want to RUIN my WALL.
ivecomeontodayto1ohwhatsthat1nope1whatwasi1dangu
On siding like shown, most def. yes. I don't see it becoming a huge problem though with stucco, block, or brick though. Spacers too.
silverpony
I think the dirt and moisture would penetrate brick and stucco etc. and discolor it.
ivecomeontodayto1ohwhatsthat1nope1whatwasi1dangu
though though. I said though though. I hate it when I do that.

You shouldn't be working your yarn from the outside of the skein anyway, you should start with the end that's on the inside.
IshouldBeSewing
Looked to me as if the yarn had been re-wound onto a toilet paper roll, so perhaps it was rolled correctly?
Drpurrpurrpurr
Point is, if you work your yarn correctly, it won't get tangled. Even if it was rewound, there's an inner end that you should be working.

If it was real, you'd be nothing but an asshole to everyone you pass because all the rain that was going to hit you, is now being blown (1)
chardrak
horizontally into their faces. Not to mention that if it suddenly starts hailing, you have no protection at all. Unlike an umbrella.
TheLoneRepublicanOnImgur
Yes, it's DIY USING A RAIN GUTTER
imhereforahighscore
I'm starting to believe it's more of a conceptual design because I have yet to see anything about it being sold. I'm also skeptical over...
imhereforahighscore
how useful it is versus heavier rain.

Works great until the batteries die 15 minutes from your destination.

Works great until the shit is beat out of you by all of the nearby people you blast with rain water

I use all of my rain gutters for Pinterest cake ideas unfortunately. Maybe I can buy some extras and keep them outside until they look used.

maybe you can just steal all of your neighbors' rain gutters in the dark of the night and then you'll actually have "extras."

Ice on a burn causes more damage...
bgrthn123
Luckily you aren't putting ice on your burn you are putting frozen aloe vera.
fragola
Not if you put a towel or a couple paper towels around it. You just can't apply ice directly to your skin.
Melsy
A towel around an aloe vera cube? Doesn't help...
fragola
Yeah, that's kind of a good point. Freezing aloe vera is just stupid all-around. I guess you could put it in the fridge. That'd be better.
Melsy
Also, when you have a sunburn, your skin is so hot that room temperature aloe vera already feels like ice!
wizardboy24
Yeahhh...I tried the fridge thing last time I got a sunburn. It's no bueno.
fragola
Good to know.
ThatBabyDontLookLikeMe
Why don't you just use the Aloe on burns for instant sunburn relief.
TheLoneRepublicanOnImgur
I would so accidentally put it in my drink
Morella
Or put the bottle in the fridge for a bit if you really must have cold gel.
purplefrogduck
Alternatively: if you get enough sunburns to need ice cube trays full of aloe, why not try sunscreen?
ThatBabyDontLookLikeMe
Ladies and Gents, we have a genius.

That's too easy. Where's the "hack" in that? How can I possibly get karma from it?

air umbrella?
DDB2020
That seems incredibly inefficient.
canuckfanatic
The air pressure would need to be quite strong. Too strong to run without a canister. Would also be disrupted by wind.
ivecomeontodayto1ohwhatsthat1nope1whatwasi1dangu
Would also drain battery life like a crazy soab. And given you're not gonna use this for a while, when you go to pull it out..disappoint.

Why do Americans say 'laying' and not 'lying'?
mackie11
Because language evolves, ignorant prick.
Glenfiddich12YO
Wow, aren't you delightful?
Tiesonthewall
I say both.
THofTheShire
They shouldn't. It's lying. Grammared. (It's a word now.)
Glenfiddich12YO
Yes, I know they shouldn't (:
JamesBluntThatSmartassCunt
I'm American, and that is an excellent question.
samuelpearse
Because we don't know how to grammar correctly.
Glenfiddich12YO
Satisfactory and plausible explanation; thanks!
IWillTryNotToBeTooOffensive
Well, American English has been considered it's own language, so it's different form English English. But "laying" is still probably wrong.
NotWithABangButAWhimper
Because the rain gutters aren't liars.
Glenfiddich12YO
I like this answer too.
eggmuffin
They don't. Some people just can't spell.
Glenfiddich12YO
I chose 'say' over 'use' precisely because I've both heard and read 'lay/laying' used instead of 'lie/lying'. I doubt it's misspelling.
eggmuffin
Good point. I usually don't miss details like that. Sorry.
Glenfiddich12YO
It's alright (:

thank you for this
youreacrookcaptainhook
true, though in this sentence "lying" is the correct word since the verb isn't used transitively

Sense, this makes.
Glenfiddich12YO
Haha, then how do you explain, "I'm going to lay down for a while." which I've come across now and then?

I would explain that America is its own country with its own vernacular (r: Whales & Scotland), but you are still right that it's incorrect.
