TBH, I have a small personal massager I use for my face. Vibrating the sinuses helps make all the mucus and gunk move, like jiggling a ketchup bottle. It helps my sinus headaches.

But yeah, they knew.

I never even thought how much that could help with clogged sinuses! Oh wow I've gotta find one to help that. It's so painful during allergy season!

It helps a ton. Facial massage and neti pots help me survive the worst congestion.

If it has a cum tube you can still use it as a pipette

I know #2! I have a meat pounder that fits about right!

Edit: it’s for "klopfing" the "schnitzel". I love schnitzel.

Edit 2: images (sorry about the dirty glass-ceramics) but do you see that bulge at the bottom? Second hand definitely pounds the meat!

Now you're just quoting the porn parody Goldiefucks and the Threesome Bears word for word!

PS: Nice meat pounder, bro 🤜

“it's a dildo. Of course it's company policy never to imply ownership in the event of a dildo. Always use the indefinite article a dildo - never your dildo.”

Man I miss my potato launcher now

[–] ephrin@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

My uncle made one that used compressed air, shot spuds about a quarter mile.

[–] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

But where can I get the LEGO pipette.

You thought the eppendorf pens were fun? Wait till you see their new reward for purchases...

[–] kkj@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Looks like a graduated cylinder to me on the first one. Second is an odd angle, maybe a selfie stick?

[–] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 11 points 2 weeks ago

"It is imperative that the graduated cylinder not be damaged"

[–] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Scout Master Kevin and Uncle Dave.

[–] SendMePhotos@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Uh... Is in a eppendorf tube...?

[–] frozenpopsicle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago

A lawn aerator?

[–] Contramuffin@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

First one looks like a repeater pipette? Not sure about the second one

[–] Zier@fedia.io 2 points 2 weeks ago

Clearly the answer is... Jeff Stryker. Duh!

[–] Yareckt@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

Another arm? A stand mixer?
