when cleaning your volcano vaporizer detachable pieces, heat some rubbing alcohol in the microwave (under 1 min) before soaking the parts (abt 20 min) then run them under hot water and brush them off if necessary. cuts clean time by a lot (heating the rubbing alcohol).

(don't do the rubber bands though b/c they'll dry out and crack if soaked a few times in rubbing alcohol)

and along the same lines, using rubbing alcohol (and kosher salt as an abrasive) works well to clean any glass/metal 'smoking' apparatus. just soak in a ziploc bag or tupperware (after heating the alcohol) and it'll eat the resin right off. salt helps rub off the resin when you shake the baggie with your piece in it.

Battery acid also works great. ldo.

Would not recommend micorwaving rubbing alcohol to potheads. Heat the alcohol in a high temp water bath.

Let's face it. Post of the Year right here.

checked out wiki and rubb alcohol is combustible and i better retract the above statements.

however, using the alcohol at room temp will still clean both (not as fast), so i think these are still life tricks.

I am not convinced that anything would happen at all to rubbing alcohol in a microwave. A microwave requires water for heating to happen, i dont think there would be enough in rubbing alcohol for anything to happen.

Sounds like we need a volunteer to confirm!

If you ever have to clean windows or glass, use old newspaper to wipe the cleaner off, it leaves the glass shinier and leaves no fuzz like paper towels do.

Invest in some MICROFIBER clothes. They are the absolute nuts for cleaning around the house. They remove dust dry, without leaving a trace of mess. They can be used to clean glass/tv screens and leave no streaks. Microfiber is also great for washing your car, as it's a lot gentler on the pain than traditional wash mitts. And they're easy to clean and reuse. Seriously, never use paper towel for cleaning ever again.

Microwaves affect polar molecules. Water is polar.

So is alcohol.

fwiw, what i read said that the alcohol could combust or have unpredictable outcomes when heated and exposed to air. scared me enough to just use cool/room temp alcohol from now on.

When cleaning your fleshlight, avoid using alcohol.

If I owned one, I think I would need to get drunk in order too clean it. So I'm skeptical of your advice.

So you wear the clothes and roll around on whatever surface you need to clean?

Haha, awesome. They do make microfiber slippers you can walk around in and clean your floor with. This spelling error is going to make me rich!

it doesnt leave ink/newsprint on the window?

Nope. Another alternative is to use coffee filters.

Obviously not. After years of practice, homeless people have perfected the art of cleaning glass.

People actually wait for stop lights when it's late and no one else is around?

Chase a shot of cheap tequila with a shot of tomato juice (forgo salt and lime)

Sincerely and comprehensively revolutionised my life

seriously good advice itt

Few people understand the psychology of dealing with a highway traffic cop. A normal speeder will panic and immediately pull over to the side. This is wrong. It arouses contempt in the cop heart. Make the bastard chase you. He will follow. But he won't know what to make of your blinker signal that says you are about to turn right. This is to let him know you're pulling off for a proper place to talk. It will take him a moment to realize that he's about to make a 180 degree turn at speed, but you will be ready for it. Brace for the g's, and fast heel-toe work.

Never put vicks vaporub on your peen.

fap into kleenx

and throw them back into your dirty laundry basket. Less cleanup.

EDIT: this might not be a good idea if you're an 8x / day type
