Title: Life hacks.
Post by: kariann330 on November 13, 2013, 11:08:10 PM
Anyone come across any life hacks you wanna share for life as a woman?

One i found is if you have a dress that zips in the back that you need help with but are all alone? Attach a lanyard to the zipper then pull it up like your zipping a wetsuit.

Using vinegar is easier than scrubbing :)

Makeup, properly applied, adds a +4 die roll modifier to your "Good Looks" stat.

Vinegar is an excellent cleaning solution, particularly for tiled areas, vinegar in water is more effective than most cleaning agents and reduces the need for scrubbing. It's cheaper too!

You can also hook an opened safety pin into the zipper and easily remove it when the zip is closed.

I've always heard that, but personally I can't stand the way the stuff smells. It completely grosses me out. :-X

A post circulating on Facebook claims that a spray bottle with 2/3 white vinegar and 1/3 water will melt the ice off car windows. Has anyone tried it? Not wintry enough yet in Boston for me to try it.

So will warm water or windsheild wash. The vinegar solution sposedly helps it not to ice up in the first place. I met a few who swear by it  but have never personally tried it. Too lazy  and forgetful I guess.

Try lemon or grapefruit juice.  I pick a lemon or grapefruit to help clean spots on carpets and clothes all the time. Oranges don't have as high a Citric Acid content and don't work as well.  Ripe or not the lemons work real well.

Remember girls she said properly applied :)

My advice, learn what mom thinks about things, because if you want to look like a woman, you also need to act like one.

The fact that it is warm from being inside the house probably has a lot more to do with it.
But the problem is, when you turn on the heat in the car, the vinegar smell is sucked inside.

Add some scented dish soap to the solution. It will help it smell better and doesn't effect the cleaning power of the white vinegar.
