chadderall.com - Chad Hacks

By the time I crawl into bed at night, I've probably made up 17 more wacky things to mold the world so I can live my best life. And sometimes, it's helpful. I call them Chacks: Chad Hacks.

My main criteria is that I made it up without seeing anyone else do it. I have no delusions of gradeur (anymore), and I'm sure at some point someone has done this. I was so pissed after I'd spent so much time on something only to find out later that someone had already invented a wheel. FML.

I personally think they're brilliant, but I'm OK if you don't.

SO. MUCH. MORE. TO. COME.

Make a sauce hole!

Prevent getting too saucy. Keep control over how much sauce you get per bite using Chadderall's patented Sauce Hole™.

Using a speculum two forks, separate the pasta so there is a cavern in the center. Fill with sauce. You can customize the amount of sauce on each bite.

Super Dooper Scooper

Keep a mug of hot water handy when you eat ice cream. In between bites, put the spoon on the hot water. You can cut through your ice cream like... butter. And milk. And sugar. And vanilla extract.

Cutting Edge Technology

When you need to dispose of an Exacto knife blade, wrap heavy-duty tape around it several times so that it's completely contained. It should be OK to put in the trash, but that's your call.

As a bonus, it works for many different blades, razors, and anything small enough to be covered with tape.

Jeepers Sweepers

Does your broom or other bristeled tools stick out of your cabinet door and prevent it from closing? Add a basic piece of wood (or anything wood-shaped) and tack it to the front edge of your cabinet.

It's kind of like a brush sneeze guard.

Label Hack Label Hack

You're already printing a label. While you're at it, just add a couple spaces, then repeat your text. You can apply it on the corner of the box so you see it from two different sides.

For bonus points, make two double labels and put on alternating corners. Now ALL sides are labeled, and that's how you know you're thriving.

Magnets: Attractive Organization

MAGNETS. Buy lots of magnets of various sizes. They can't not come in handy.

Stick magnets to the inside of your medicine cabinet door and store clippers and tools front and center ready to hang(nail) whenever you are.

You can also attach them to the underside of your desk to use as metal tool storage.

To attach magnets, I recommend 3D Command Adhesive on the CRAP page.

Where Art Now?

Need to store framed pictures or art and don't want them to get bent or lost? Use empty wall space in your closet. Is this common sense? I never know.

Fold It Like a Flag!

Couldn't be more serious. Ever since I was in 4th grade and got to do flag duty and learned all about it, I've been fascinated by the triangular fold. It works best on rectangular items, but you can try to get creative and make it work.

Sheets. Towels. Flags. Tarps. Paper. But mostly sheets.

It comes out a relatively firm, easily-storable triangle. It stays wound up so you don't need to worry about loose ends.

Please note: The original pride in country I felt when using this fold has been replaced by horror and diarrhea. But the folding technique is still legal, for now, until geometry is outlawed.Fun facts: It's disrespectful to alter the flag, change its dimensions, or tear it. Funny.

The nationalists who wear the flag bullshit are the same people who trample all over the respect for it.
Our president has an altered version flying outside Maralago, and when confronted, they doubled down. Shocker.
Our president also features the flag on the back of his gold phone cases he sells, and it doesn't have the right number of stripes on it. It didn't look good asthetically. Anyone see a theme?

Get a Handle on Your Shopping

You know those self-adhesive handles at Target that you can use to carry 8 rolls of paper towels? They work for so. much. more.

I keep some stuck inside my cabinet. Now when I'm stuck with an odd-shaped item without a way to hold it, I can handle it just fine.

Gotta a Lot o' Lotto?

Has this happened to you? You win a billion dollars in Super Lotto Plus, but you accidentally thought it was your postive scabies results, so you shredded it so no one would find out you knew you were Patient Zero the whole time?

Put three binder clips on a keychain or loop. Label them "Winners," "TBD," and "Losers." As you play, clip them into the right category. Eliminate ambugiuity. Show everyone you take it too seriously. Nothing screams "don't fuck with me" like excessive labels.
