Topic: Making Food And Cleaning Dishes

I like to be done cleaning dishes before my last bite is finished.

How's that possible?

Well, after cooking the food, I wash any pots/pans/dishes that I'm not using to eat. So, that way all I have left to wash is a plate and utensil. When I'm just about done eating, I take a large last bite and wash the plate and utensil(s).

I believe this is a good level of efficiency; My time is used efficiently, multitasking whenever I can. An added benefit of doing the dishes before eating is that the food will cool down so I don't have to waste my time cooling it off myself, or burn my mouth when eating.

Some may say it is more efficient to use disposable dishware, and I'll agree that it is ever so slightly faster in time. But, it costs more, less eco-friendly, and fills the garbage can quicker which would require more trips/time to empty it.

Question: Urine Test (Urinalysis)

In order to help liquid waste flow from the bladder, is it better to drink cold water to contract the bladder to make it smaller? Or drink warm water to possibly loosen things up?

How To Get Better At Something

How do you get better at something?

You do it.

Oxygenated Water

Would oxygenated water benefit you any more than regular water?

I know there is already oxygen in there, but there could be more. Then again, I guess that would just bring us  to something like carbonated water. But, maybe without the carbon?

What about extra-hydrated water?

Topic: IQ Tests

Is there a [good] reason to take one?

If I score low, then I may feel bad.
If I score high, then I may be in a false sense of security/entitlement and possibly have a more profound ego.
If I score average, then okay... Do I need to know I'm average?

How does one's life improve after taking an IQ test. But, then again, maybe I just want to know for the sake of knowing. And not ever share it with anybody?

ps - If one scores low, then hopefully it would be used more as a motivating factor. Maybe.

"Curiosity Killed The Cat"

"Curiosity killed the cat."

It wasn't that the cat was too curious. It was that the cat was curious about the wrong thing.

Question: Space Shuttles

When space shuttles launch, the seem to be making a large arc (not going up straight). So, my first question was, why don't the space shuttles go straight up? Then, I thought, maybe it is going straight up... Maybe it is just us on Earth that is rotating away...

Topic: Paper Weights

Do people actually use paper weights? Isn't gravity enough to keep papers down?

Question: Kitchen Counters

Is there a typical height of a kitchen counter? Is there an optimal height?

Just looked it up and apparently, yes, three feet is the standard height of kitchen counter. This is supposed to be a compromise between tall people and short people.

Is it a sign of some sort of intelligence to be able to make fun of oneself?

Topic: Shower

How to take a shower:
1. Wet.
2. Soap.
3. Rinse.

Each step should take, at most, about one minute. Thus, three minutes total.

Caveat: If you have long hair, then you can take longer.

Topic: Food

I only eat a certain amount of food everyday... Everything that I can get my hands on.

Conditioners, the anti-hair-gel. The antithesis of spiky hair.

Why don't recruiters say which company the open positions are for?

(Third-party) headhunters, aka recruiters, aka talent sourcers don't say which company they are recruiting for because that would allow the perspective employee to go around them and talk to the company directly. Then, the headhunter wouldn't get their (possible) bonus.

Everyday

Pop-Tarts In Milk

Eating Pop-Tarts dipped in milk tastes really good. So far, I have just tried the Oreo Pop-Tarts. Next, I may try first toasting the pastries, then dipping them in milk. =b

Question: Music

If you don't listen to the radio or check social medias, then how do you know how popular artists and songs are?

Your Reach Is More Than You Think

A person an inch taller than another can reach up one and a half inches higher.

A person two inches taller than another can reach up three inches higher.

On average.

For purposes of this post, people's arm-spans are exactly the same as their height (I know it can vary a few inches).

So, when a person is 2 inches taller, they also have 2 inches to give to the length of their arms, approximately 1 inch would go to each arm (assuming that each person's torso is the same width).
