Are you a MacBook user? If so, you’ve probably noticed that there are some wings you can pull up on the power cord. You may have been confused as to what the purpose of these things is. Rest assured, we all were! But, they do serve an intended purpose.
If you flip up the wings, it is much easier to wrap the cord around the power block so as to prevent it from being in the way. It’s not necessary to use, but it is a neat little feature designed to improve your experience.
Holes in Pot Handle
Unless you're a chef, you may not know the reason why pots and pans have holes at the end of the handle. Well, there are two logical reasons behind the existence of the hole. First of all, the hole makes it easy to hang the pot up on hooks when it's drying out or not being used. You may even have used pots that way plenty of times in your kitchen. But, the other trick of the trade is perhaps something that you haven't tried to do, and you're going to love it.
It's time to stop dirtying up the counter with the saucy stirring spoon. Next time you're whipping up a red curry in your pot, slip the utensil into the pot and let it rest there while your meal is cooking. You should especially try out this slick move the next time you make a meal and want to impress people with your talented Top Chef skills. Your performance is guaranteed to get many 'oohs' and 'aahs.'
Cylinder Toward End of Cable Cord
There are many different reasons to use a cable or power cord of some kind, so there's a good chance you've used one before. Well, if you have, you may have noticed a big cylinder-shaped lump toward the end of the cord. There is actually a name for this, other than a cylinder-shaped lump. These things are called chokes or ferrite cores.
It's simply magnetic iron oxide that helps to prevent any high-frequency electromagnetic interference. You know when your cell phone gets too close to a speaker, and you get that weird static noise interrupting your call? That's an example of this kind of interference. So, cable cords come with big cylinders to prevent that from happening.
Paper Condiment Cups
We've all used those tiny (and, may we add, pathetic) paper condiment cups to dip our french fries and chicken fingers into. You know, those minuscule ones that you dip two fries into, and BAM, the ketchup is already gone. And let's not even get started with trying to dip your fat chicken wings into those little suckers.
Well, we aren't going to get into the science behind why those things are so small (to be frank, we're not quite sure). But, we are going to explain to you how to really use them so you can be the coolest kid in your chicken wing and fries crew. These tiny cups are also meant to be unfolded and treated like a plate. Never struggle again with trying to dip a fat wing into those. You're welcome.
Pocket in Women’s Underwear
Hey women, have you ever noticed that you have secret little pockets that are sewn right into your underwear? Well, there is a name for this little flap and it's called a panty gusset. Gussets are often made of moisture-wicking breathable fabrics like cotton to keep the privates dry and ventilated.
Most manufacturers don't bother stitching these closed. Anyways, it's actually more comfortable left open.
