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.
Wings on Apple Power Cord
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.
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.
Zigzag Side of Bobby Pins
Even if you've never used a bobby pin, then you can still probably picture how one looks in your hair. One side is straight, and the other is wavy. The wavy zigzag side is the one that faces towards the scalp, thus it isn't seen.
The wavy side is actually what helps keep the pin in place by helping catch the hair. That’s why you only see the wavy side when the bobby pin isn’t in use.
Soda Can Tab
Most of us are familiar with the top of a soda can like the back of our hands. Despite having drunk soda hundreds, and probably thousands of times in your life, you may have overlooked one feature of the soda can tab. Besides occasionally breaking off into the can and ruining the rest of your drink, the tab actually serves another purpose.
The tab on top of soda cans was actually designed to be flipped over again and used as a holder to keep your straw in place. Who knew, right? Despite this neat little addition, most of us refrain from using straws when drinking from a can, if not for the environment, then because they're so flimsy inside of the can and it's more comfortable to drink straight out of the can. But if you think about it, using the tab to hold your straw in place makes perfect sense.
