Oh, here's another one. For people who do yard work, I'm a big fan of using a machete instead of a weed whacker machine. So much fun to let out your inner Star Wars Kid. I bought a cheapo $7 Walmart machete a few years ago and haven't used the weed whacker since. And I expect the blade to last forever, unlike the string trimmers.

Carbon steel unseasoned wok. I've used mine multiple times weekly for almost 20 years for stir frying and deep frying. Nothing fancy, just a Joyce Chen wok with some accessories that was $30 at Bed Bath Beyond (RIP). My mom has used hers for 50 years.

 

EDIT: I've attached a rough map of the situation. The laundry room is the little room in the middle. The red dot is where the dryer vents into the garage.

My house is weird. Built mid-1970s. Upper Midwest.

One of the weird/annoying things about my house is the fact that the clothes dryer vent opens up into the house's attached garage rather than venting outside. This is an electric dryer, so the vent is just hot wet air -- nothing like CO or anything.

Ideally, I'd like the dryer to vent to the outside and not turn my garage into a stagnant humid swamp every time I dry clothes (most days, actually, because I have many children). But the laundry room isn't situated in a way that makes outside venting easy. It's on the main level, right in the middle of the floorplan. No basement access, so I can't add ductwork through the floor. No usable ceiling access either.

What options do I have to make this mess annoying? Add venting to the garage somehow?

This is spot on. Discovery. You never knew what door you were opening and where it would lead you.

I was in a weekly game for preteen girls and their dads. Our standing rule for missing players was that their character was with the party but had terrible diarrhea and was off in the corner, shamefully pooping the whole time.

It worked for the game's demographic. Fun and gross and gave everyone a chance to lightly tease the player who missed the last session.
