    Depends on the situation.

    Currently? 40 pound box of cake mix I’m probably going to launch at my store manager.

      Is it the 40 pound box of cake mix that kills? Or is the person hucking the 40 pound box of cake mix?

    My cat. Everything else in my room brings me either misery or a feeling of meh. Cat brings joy, which is difficult for me to obtain.

    Toilet paper 🧻 Very, very useful.

      See, if you’re in the room I think you’re in, I think I would vote for the toilet.

        TP actually makes an awesome and really inexpensive kleenex or napkin alternative

          Toilets are effective at pushing shit, piss and vomit into the sewer while preventing sewer gases from entering your home, and they also double as chairs when not in excremental use. You can also use a toilet to repair the mental defects of a billionaire if you drop it from high enough, I don’t think toilet paper functions in that way.

            All I’m saying is that I found the extra-restroom utility of TP when I had a sinus infection.

              Uh, yeah, but, ACKSHOO-UHLEE you’re both wrong.

              The floor, walls, and ceiling of that room provide you with protection from the elements.

                Edit:stupid carriage return formatting

                For me, at least, the walls and ceiling just trap heat

                (10pm w/ fans downstairs used as intake)

    The toilet. Lost count of the number of times this has saved me from getting dysentery or something and it’s so convenient when it just pushes the shit away from my house and I never have to see or smell it again. I almost feel bad that I repay it for all its done by repeatedly shitting in it.

    Me? Unless I’m excluded, then the laptop. Although the room itself is pretty useful, but I don’t think I consider it “in the room”.

      Consume salt! Water on its own isn’t great for hydrating when you’re continously sweating, Gatorade exists for a reason (to supplement the nutrients lost to sweating, not just the water)

        No worries. Gone through 2.5kg(~9lbs) of Gatorade powder, just this summer. LiquidIV got way too expensive after the first box.

      Same! Mine’s smart, entertaining, manages my social life, probably contributes more to society than I ever will and on top of that, for reasons that still escape explanation, actually wants to have sex with me which is probably the only reason I never turned into an incel. She is easily the best thing in this house, myself included.

        Right there with you. She’s amazing. Plans all our trips. Organizes the kids. Lets me do the things I do best. Perfect travel buddy. To wives!🍻
