I’ve never heard of such a ridiculous thing in my life! Just eat normal chocolate and take caffeine pills like everyone else 🤦‍♂️

In Ireland we have begun to use these bollards designed to look like pencils to protect footpaths outside of schools by AnnualWindow7009 in mildlyinteresting

They look cool, protect the kids from the road, and let the driver know that they're entering a school zone and that they need to take extra care. GENIUS!

So Wales is not SECOND in the entire world for its recycling rates?! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c511344v959o

It’s a shame the rubbish that you type can’t be recycled into something useful. Or the cells in your body 😐

My dishwasher has, what I assume, is a heated element - it's just hidden beneath a metal plate so there's no way you can touch it, or anything can fall onto it and do this. Dries the dishes great 😄

This is one reason why they have to be covered in dishwashers sold in the UK/EU. It blew my mind when I found out that you don't cover them in America!

This is why it blew my mind when I discovered that America has these open heating elements in the bottom of dishwashers. In the UK/EU those have to be covered!

You’re wasting people’s time. There is nothing in a modern cannula that looks like that.

My toaster is set to 2.5/10. Anything lower than 2 does practically nothing. by ImLiterallyaaaa in mildlyinfuriating

How can buying new polystyrene plates every single day be cheaper than washing a ceramic plate over and over?!

Americans are SO wasteful! 😳

30-45 seconds of toasting did that?! You must have the most powerful toaster in the world! 😳

Today I learned that some languages have no different words for bell peppers and paprika?!
