A collection of things I invented or otherwise put together on the spot.
The Fork Clipper
Same idea as the MTA comb but this time I didn't have the inexperienced 2nd party to cut my hair. I did however have an electric shaver and a disposable fork that I foolishly thought looked similar enough to clipper guards.
You'll need
An electric shaver
A disposible fork
Tape
No regard for your physical appearence
Steps
Snap the handle off the disposable fork
Tape it to the electric shaver
Observe as your hair is irreparably ruined
Suspended Beer Bong
Have you ever had to hold your own beer bong up while you chug it? Now you may be asking yourself why I'm chugging beer by myself. Well, why are you reading about beer bongs on some college kid's portfolio website? Only gawd can judge.
You'll need
A beer bong
Scissors
A surgical mask
Steps
Cut a small incision into a study surgical mask, approximately the size of the the tube on you beer bong.
Fit the surgical mask through the tubing of your beer bong where its cradling the base of the funnel
Tie the strings of the surgical mask to any hinges or notches up high. (Example shown: kitchen light fixture)
Tampon Piping Bag
Ok, this one may be getting a little weird, but I'm no baker. So why would I bother investing in a piping bag just to put some icing on a tin of brownies? Just stick a tampon applicator through a Ziploc bag and call it a day. It's called resourcefulness, I don't make the rules, I just play the game.
You'll need
A Ziploc bag
A (hopefully unused) tampon applicator
Steps
Deconstruct a tampon applicator, you’ll only need the tube for this.
Cut a small hole in the corner of a Ziploc bag, make sure the hole is approximately half the diameter of the tampon applicator
Push the tampon applicator through the Ziploc bag from the inside outwards, creating a seal as the tube stretches the Ziploc hole.
The MTA Comb
When COVID strikes and you need a haircut but you don't have a comb, there's only one answer. You need to cut an MTA card into a makeshift comb.
You'll need
An MTA card
Scissors
An inexperienced person to cut your hair
Steps
Start by cutting an MTA card about half an inch deep several times across the length of the card
Bend every second tab upwards
Cut all the tabs you bent upwards
The Ramen Fork
In the absence of adequate silverware, a few common household items can be thrown together in a pinch (not that a fork isn't a household item) but whatever #DormLife
You'll need
A Dasani water bottle
1 pencil
Some scotch tape
Scissors or an Xacto
Steps
Take your Dasani water bottle and cut out the shape of the fork prongs, leaving some material at the base for attaching
Tape the base of the fork to the back of your pencil
Eraser Juul Charger
Juul chargers are independent creatures, they don't like to be tied down and they're never where you left em. But not to worry the world’s Shittiest Macguyver is here to save the day with an old iPhone charger and an eraser.
You'll need
An old iPhone charger
Scissors
An eraser
Masking tape
A toothpick
Steps
Cut the lightning port side of an Iphone charger and strip the rubber insulation off
Inside the should be 4 colored wires, twist the black and black wire together and then the green and red wire together to make two prongs of wire
Hollow out about a quarter inch of eraser matching the shape of a Juul bottom
Using a toothpick poke 2 holes up through the opposite side of the eraser and feed one wire prong through each hole.
Voila, you're done. Once everything is set and your Juul is charging, apply a little tape to make sure it's not going anywhere.
Why are you reading my footer? You got a footer fetish or something?
