it's "bad" to have your spouse's contact name as their full name rather than "wife", it's the same thing as having your parent call you by your full name

caffeine pills are severely underrated, you can just have a bottle by the bed and down 100mg without even needing to stand up

this is mostly just true in america, in europe at least cheap food is healthier, because the cheapest things are stuff like potato and onions.

but really, maintenance is a very key part of the design and if it's ass to maintain then it's just not good..
What i generally see is stuff from companies whose whole business is selling "solutions", you buy a container that is mounted on the wall and then you buy their bundles of tissue that you just slot into the container and close it back up.

When i was working at a theme park they used a system that was fascinatingly well engineered, with tissue bundles that have packaging optimized to be trivial to open, containers that hold like 2-3 bundles at once so there's a buffer between refills, and best of all the bundles have little velcro pads on the top and bottom so you just place it on top of the previous one and then when people pull out the last bit it automatically pulls out the start of the next bundle!

the best driers just blow a large volume of slow moving hot air at your hands, so there's no splashing and the moisture actually evaporates rather than being physically blown off the skin.

honestly it still feels a bit wrong that we don't reach 90%, even my grandma could understand and probably stammer out the odd sentence if she had to, and everyone is exposed to english all the time.

yeah i agree, it feels like they just use telegram a lot and thus see the icon when they close their eyes, lol
