not to the roaches.. i learned that the hard way a few years ago.
during covid, i left a couple of cases of empty bottles on my kitchen floor and didn't think anything of them for a month or so. that's how i found out my neighbors had cleanliness issues, and the roaches found out they had a new place next door to terrorize. horrible experience - don't keep your empties in your apartment.
“Left a couple of cases of empty alcohol bottles on the floor for a month….”
“Then I got roaches from it! That’s how I knew my neighbors had cleanliness issues.”
…….?

This man will repair your car in such a way it will both never break and when you do go to a normal mechanic for something they will gaze upon it in awe and horror.

I used to be a programmer and now I fix cars professionally, I feel like half of my professional life has been gazing upon some ancient work of dark magic and cussing loudly because I know I'm about to have to go in.
The line between jank and wizardry is sometimes blurry. The best magic has a little bit of jank in it, and the worst jank is sometimes a little bit magical.

A local store just upgraded the deposit machine, so instead of depositing one single can at a time, I now empty an entire bag of hundreds of cans into the machine and let it sort it out.
It's great, saves lots of time and makes everything easier. Instead of bringing a shopping bag with 20 cans everytime I shop I can take an entire sack of 200 cans every month or so.Unfortunately... the same kind of people who used to cause queues with their 200 can garbage bags at the usual refund machines also figured this out, so now they're causing a queue at the new machine with trailer loads of garbage bags full of thousands of cans.
I have no idea where they get all those cans.
I would suspect some sort of scheme bringing cans from a neighboring state or whatever without a deposit. Just one more reason to wish for a national deposit program in the US.

it was covid lockdown. i don't think i was the only one who skipped the odd laundry day.
this was a whole different thing, though. i'd already lived here (i'm still in the same place) for three years without any issues. i'm not neurotic, but i do try to keep my place clean.
or at least i thought i did..
these roaches taught me so much. to this day, i still keep my organic waste in a bag in my freezer. i got rid of my coffee machine and switched to instant - explaining why would probably make you sick. i never leave dishes to "soak" any more.
i'm telling you, it got bad. really bad. i talked to the super, and she said that someone moved in who 'was from a different part of the world and is used to roaches'. like, what? it got to the point where i always had a fly swatter in one had and a bottle of windex in the other. i was killing 20-30 by hand every night. they weren't coming over for food; they were so bad at the other apartment that they were coming there to scope a new place to live.

I have a French press so I don’t have to worry about brewing roach coffee.

I find it highly unlikely that Clark Gable is on social media as that he has been deceased since 1960 long before the invention of the internet. What I think is taking place is someone is posing as Clark Gable to malign his slovenly neighbour. Clark Gable was a great actor and probably why Superman was named Clark and if he were alive today he would continue to make great films but it is also highly unlikely that Clark would live beside a trashcan.

i imagine that fuckin stinks
Learned the trick. Quick, very quick, rinse in the sink, dunk it upside down in the drain. Rinse (heh) and repeat for the next can. Almost zero effort, clean cans for the recycling bag. I took a load the size pictured for recycling last month. No stink. Only got a lousy $100.10.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Pourover gang here to also flex on this guy's roach tea.
Fr though, I dealt* with roaches for years and it was legitimately traumatizing. Any time I feel something brush my leg or I catch a glimpse of something dark in the corner of my eye I begin to panic. I've woken up in a cold sweat because I would have dreams of roaches and shit. Truly awful experience

I just empty them, put them in a crate, then every monday empty the kitchen crate into my garage sack. When they're full i take 'em up to CDS

When I moved into my last apartment, my entire storage area was full of bags of cans.
They belonged to a neighbor, who was using my empty storage because his was full, I found out 2 weeks later when he came ripping up to my door demanding to know what I did with his money.
When I found out he meant the cans, I laughed, told him I threw out his trash for him, and told him if he ever darkened my door again I’d call the cops.
They weren’t even crushed. His own storage was probably plenty if he’d be less lazy.

In high school, I got in a car wreck and had to drive without a front bumper for about a year. When the bumper got torn away, it also took the light housings for my blinkers and running lights.
My dad made new housings with zip ties and soda cans cut in half that attached to the back of lenses we bought cheap at the local auto parts store. He drilled slightly undersized holes in the bottom of the cans that held the bulbs in place when they were pushed through, and he'd polished the inside of the cans to act as reflectors.
It worked great! When we eventually got the bumper replaced, the body guy shop was amazed and said he didn't see any reason why we should spend the money to buy factory housings, and when we sold that car it still had store-brand diet sprite cans as light housings that surely confused the hell out of someone down the line.

if it's jank, and it works, it ain't jank.
The definition of jank is that it at least sorta works.
If it doesn't its not jank its just broken.

Same. Fiction or fact, this is funny enough and harmless enough to just shrug and say, "He must be a wizard, whoever he is."
