I remember the time my cousin and I were playing with her doll house and we had the dogs take over the place and I posed the dad doll with his arms above his head and one leg sticking out and tossed him over my shoulder like the dogs just launched him out of the house. He bounces off the roof and lands on ONE damn foot on the storage box and Carly and I just STARE like O___O look to each other and go 'WHY COULDN'T WE HAVE THAT ON VIDEO?!'
#1 please for the love of FSM do not use your knives in this way. Ask any ER doctor how many people they see for stitches in their hands because of doing stupid shit with a knife like cutting ice out of a tray or cutting the pit out of an avacado
More of a chopping motion than a stabbing motion. It'll wedge on the blade, then you just push it off with your thumb. Alternatively, cut it into quarters and take each quarter off the pit.
Cut the avocado lengthwise, slicing carefully until the knife meets the pit and circling it all the way around. Twist the two halves to separate them.
Place the half with the pit cut-side up on the cutting board. Keeping your free hand well clear, gently tap the knife blade downward onto the pit. Just enough for it to catch, not to split it. Once the blade is embedded, hold the avocado in your palm of your free hand and twist the knife. The pit will release and come out attached to the blade.
Not long ago I innovated this, because I was sick of knife blade sticking in the pit and creating a new dangerous situation to remove it. I just poke the tip of the knife into the base of the pit and pry upwards lightly and it pops right off and doesn't stick to the knife.
Hold the avocado in your off hand and smack the pit with the sharp side of the knife. There's more risk, but if you're careful it's pretty safe. I have also seen people use the tip of the blade while holding it, and well, that ended with a knife in a hand.

Who tf ever said that coincidences don't exist?

#1 ugh just do the bendy ice tray move. It’s satisfying to hear the ice crack and you won’t stab yourself!
bobisslack
Like, if there was a black screen between everyone of these, no problem. But for some reason, the "coincidence" every time was maddening. Why is that?
Shouldhavethoughtthisthroughabitbetter
because none of these things were coincidences

You beat me to posting this same one.
mirrorz
None of these things are coincidences. They all have easily explainable causes and effects.
johnxbear
Just because you understand the cause and effect doesn't mean it wasn't coincidence.
Shouldhavethoughtthisthroughabitbetter
yeah,but none of these were coincidences.
johnxbear
They literally all were.

Why should I ask for the number? How will that help? :-)
InfocalypseRising
Okay maybe this is a dumb question but how are you supposed to get the pit out of an avocado
Exyr
A spoon?
chittychittybangbanglovesustoo
Put the avocado down on a cutting board then use the same technique
afroniner
Slice into it and twist. Never stab it
InfocalypseRising
Okay yeah that's what I do. it never even occurred to me that people would stab it with the tip.

Oh, okay, yeah, the chopping thing is what I've been doing. People stab it with the tip? jesus.

InfocalypseRising
yeah, this is what I do. I thought they were saying don't use a knife at all.
WaterUnderTheRocketAppliances
I can't even think of how else you could do that with a knife that wouldn't just completely destroy everything.
