“What Product Has A Better Use Than Its Intended Function?” (40 Answers)

Legit, Royal Dansk should sponsor one of those fashion competition shows.

They were sewing kit tins used a biscuit tins 😛😛

I actually need a new sewing tin and was kicking myself I didn’t hunt out some Dansk biccies over Christmas

I use mine for spare nuts and bolts.

Yup... the biggest screw up in history for those looking for actual cookies...

I don’t know if this is true, but I was told tampons were actually invented to plug bullet wounds and their feminine hygiene use was discovered by WW I nurses.

That’s what they were invented for….

They were invented for this purpose, weren't they?

Suddenly they become free because men can use them.

Plus they are really good firestarters

Brit here. Can confirm.

During the pandemic we put all copies of the sun, the express & the daily hate on the empty toilet roll aisle in the supermarket. If I see one on my way in I still do it. Yes, I'm that petty!

I feel sorry for the puppies

I'm not surest was ever a 'real' newspaper.

Ah yes the paper that claims to be the most patriotic but forgets to mention that its parent compan is registered in the Bahamas for tax purposes

don't forget the gauge for pulling your car in the garage

And also, if you put anything quilted into a tumble drier with some tennis balls (like cushions) they will stop 'clumping' .

Have you ever tried to put some of them in the washing machine with your towels to get them soft again? Surprisingly it works. Also good to help with clots when machine-washing down bedding.

Producing a tennis ball and throwing it will make you my dogs friend for life.

When I was recovering from knee replacement surgery, I discovered that tennis balls were the only thing that would not wear out after a couple miles on walker

This is perhaps the first legitimate use of silly string I have heard of. People young enough to enjoy spraying it around usually don't want to clean it up afterwards. Leaving it on the floor in a war zone is likely okay. lol

Silly string reacts to blacklight - string fights are fun on acid (discovered this in the '70s)

"Uh colonel, I see the enemy is being quite festive today...it is like the whole enemy platoon has their birthday today. Weird, hmmmm..."

Cool

The person who wrote this certainly enjoys pranking people.
