Cutting pizza with scissors instead of a pizza slicer.

Once watched an old guy dry off his car that he just washed with an electric leaf blower.

I used to use a small, flexible bucket to plunge a clogged drain at a kitchen job by putting it upside down over the drain, holding it in place with my thumbs, and squeezing the sides until it started draining. The sink would clog nightly and either there was never a plunger in the first place or it was missing the entire time I worked there. One of the supervisors caught me and was mildly impressed.

“I can smoke all I want, just not the first one” helped me quit.

The pythagorean theorem. It’s just stupid math, but somehow it works

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

it’s like something a five year old would come up with.

Singing a nursery rhyme-type tune to remember the alphabet.

I once used one of those drinking bird toys to keep a motion detector from turning the office lights off.

Restarting something to get it to work.

Me not knowing my times tables past 6x6

“6x6 is 36, plus 6”

“6 is made up of a 4 and a 2”

“6 plus 4 is 10, so now the total is 40, plus that 2 is 42”

I’ve been doing this for so long that you’d think I’d know by now that 6x7 is 42. But no.

I can literally do some Algebra II equations in my head- no problem, but still don’t know my times tables.

Fake security cameras for a fraction of the cost of real security cameras but with a huge decrease in theft or vandalism.

My nine grade economics teacher opened a window and smoked a cigerette sitting on the sill. He told us he was giving us a lesson on addictions impact on people's abilities to do their jobs. .

Anyone else chemical burn their skin trying to remove their freckles only for it to be trendy when we got older?
