    I have NEVER accomplished this. They’re either lost or ran through the dryer to destroy a load of clothes.

      I’ve never had it destroy a load of clothes. It’s a tiny amount of mostly Vaseline.

    You call that finished?! It’s just getting started. Get your finger down in there and dig out the rest. Another several weeks of soft lips await you.

    That’s easy I left a tube of chapstick in the car once and I was able to use the entire thing without opening it.

      If I do that here in the south, it just melts in the summer. Constantly buying new ones in the summertime because I take them inside to not melt, then forget them at home.

    I thought this place was supposed to be dull.

    The rare exciting news of a finished Chapstick (rather than lost, wrecked in the washing machine, etc …) is certainly not dull!

    I’m going to go and reorganise my screw boxes to calm down a bit.

      Step 1: Use it.
      Step 2: don’t lose it.

    For added triumph, try to use it up before it goes bad.

    Because apparently that’s a thing.

    Can you teach this skill to my gf please? She constantly has around 3 in rotation and keeps needing to swap in new ones because they just disappear.

    I have five or six on the go. Can’t tell if I’ve ever lost one. Win-win!

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men’s Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

  • what is this thing?
  • No Stupid Questions
  • Ask Lemmy
  • Self Hosted
  • Mildly Interesting

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.
