Use a metal spatula to easily scoop icecream.

A metal spatula works perfect to drive down to the bottom of an ice-cream container. It gives fast, easy slices of ice cream. Removing the first portion of new ice-cream takes a little finesse.

Shoo away bees/wasps by blowing on them

If you want to shoo away bees/wasps/hornets etc. without risking a sting just blow on them. They won't want to be in the wind but they also won't see it as a threat. It may take a couple of times before they get the hint not to land on your drink but it does work. I will point out not to get too close to them while blowing.

People throwing trash out their car window. Doubly peeved if it's a luxury car.

The driver of the Audi in front of me tossed a lollipop stick out the window. Money doesn't by class.

You can teleport to any longitude on one latitude. Which Latitude do you choose and why?

You are given the ability to teleport at will on Earth but you have to lock in one latitude. You can go to any longitude on that line. (If you want, you can flip the requirement to one longitude but any latitude) For the sake of the hypothetical, you have full legal status (i.e. valid passport/visa) in any country you teleport to and are considered to have entered the country legally (i.e. as if you had checked in with customs ). Which latitude do you pick and why?

It will be interesting to see how many people use this to rob banks.

People who expect me to know their local package delivery issues

My company ships all over the country and we give people the options to have their items shipped via USPS, UPS or FedEx. A couple times a month, I get calls along the lines of ,"If I have this shipped via UPS to my work address will there be any issues?" The answer we give is "We can tell you that you aren't required to sign for it. But beyond that, you would have to check with your local delivery service regarding any issues they may have."

What I want to say is, "Susan, how am I supposed to know what the delivery routines are in Medora, North Dakota."

If you were offered the ability to always know when anyone is lying to you but it had the condition that you had to call them out on it, would you take it? What ways, if any, would you alter your life to try to avoid awkward situations because of it.

Is everyone's inner monologue in the same place?

I picture my inner monologue as in my head but I don't know if the reason is biological (thoughts are generated in your head) or cultural (everyone references thoughts being in your head so you just assign them there). If it's cultural, can we train ourselves to think our inner monologue is coming from someplace else like the heart or a few feet away from you?
