I swear every time my spouse tries to use wd40 I have a stroke. We have several kinds of specific lubes for different situations ffs, all in the same easy to access bin, stop trying to use wd40 as a catch all super lube that's not how it works.
People don't send letters much anymore but please don't lick the envelopes. Just dip a finger in water. Just as easy, less germy, and doesn't cause a lingering chemical taste.
Nobody seems to understand how to use dental dams. Look it up, stay safe people.
I had to look up dental dams, TIL.
I knew what they were but I am still not understanding the connection to WD40.
I have tmj and so my jaw can lock shut sometimes. WD40 can be used to quickly un-seize my jaw so I can get some proper lube in there and keep enjoying what's on the other side of a dental dam.
Glad to spread the word! They're an important piece of PPE that a lot of people overlook
