I'm in this picture and I do not like it one bit.
Put a *damp paper towel around the beverage and chill it in the coldest spot of the fridge with enough space for airflow.
This is not that great of an idea unless you have a fridge that actively dries itself from the inside.
Yeah, I should have been more specific, thank you. Moist is plenty, with a plate under it.
OMG thank you!
Pulled the drink out of the freezer just in time, thanks to this post. You know, when it's at that stage where it turns into a slushie right before it freezes over. Just 10 minutes later and it would have been too late.
Thanks again.
Glad to be of some service lmao
At this point i think ive just accepted the fact that i have all of the minor symptoms of ADHD without the major ones (eg. Inability to focus).
if i don't intend to forget about a thing, i do not put the thing in a place i can't see it. yes my flat is a bit of a mess because of that, and so is my desktop, but hey, it works for me
I knew where everything was until my gf organized it. Everything in its place pile.
My girlfriend is autistic so everything always needs to be perfectly organized. We fight about this all the time cause I can never find anything thanks to her. Drives me crazy.
ah a fellow user of the SHAPE organisation method (Stacks Heaps And Piles Everywhere)
I need a microwave that emits a continuous tone until I empty it…
I've got misophonia and this sounds like hell. My microwave beeps 6 times, which is 5 too many in my opinion. But hey at least it makes me rush to the microwave and open it asap to shut it up.
Edit: actually, lately I've just been standing by it waiting instead of doing other stuff. I hate forgetting about it and then getting severe discomfort from the beeps.
My microwave when done: beep. beep. beep. beep. beep.
My microwave stopped one second early to head off the unnecessary beeps: BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!
(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
Get one that only does one little bell ding
Anecdote: A friend of mine has a fridge that makes a two tone beep every time you open/close the darn thing. I would go insane.
There's a way to shut off the beeping entirely on most microwaves, but then forgetting your food is much more likely.
Mine beeps 4 times, then once every 30 seconds or something until I open it. Super useful feature for me.
On the other hand, my dishwasher does not make any sound when it's done, so I don't think I've ever let the dishes dry properly.
My microwave does that... in online chats my friends heard the beeping through my microphone, and still have had to remind me to take it out before too.
Shiver me timers
While we're on the subject; if you use a common-area laundry, the app notifications are unreliable. Set your own timer so you won't accidentally be that asshole whose laundry is sitting in the machine hours later. I will move it, but I'd rather not have to.
but set your timer to like 10min more than the washing machine tells you, because that thing is going to be at 00:00 for an extra 15min
But set it short for the dryer because it will stop early and you want the laundry still toasty warm for your cat
I got into the unfortunate habit of clicking away my timer without actually getting up to do whatever it was supposed to be reminding me of. Always telling myself that I'll just finish whatever I was doing right then.
I gave up on that years ago .... no amount of logical thinking or attention ever made me capable of achieving that task
And it's made out of glass
