A fuckin set of tongs that has some latching mechanism that doesn’t work so they stay permanently agape.

Ineffective ass potato masher.
What would you recommend for mashing ass-potatoes?
I know I wouldn't recommend one of those electric hand mixers, like the one that just has a tiny blade it spins fast (the ones that spin two "interlocking" things might do decently). The potatoes are too thick and the blades just end up pushing the potatoes away and spinning uselessly. I'd take the one pictured over that kind.
And tbh, I like that style because you can still get good smooth mashed potatoes and the masher is easier to clean vs the grid style ones. Though for either of them, the trick is to dip it into the dish water and shake it around (clear out fragile stuff first obviously).
(the ones that spin two “interlocking” things might do decently)
Can confirm, they do.
For ass potatoes you need a ricer.
Kinda depends how you like your potatoes. I generally like them a little lumpy, but I think the twelve or so of us in the lumpy crew nationwide lose that fight every Thanksgiving.
But! The ineffective ass potato masher does a real good job of breaking up ground meat in to super tiny bits in the pan for stuff like Taco meat.
I use a perforated masher. It's like the middle ground between this and a ricer.
a knife once got stuck in out kitchen drawer.
after an hour of trying to get that drawer open with an arsenal of tools we surrendered and smashed a hole in the drawer from below.
The new ceramic knifes which caused the incident were collateral damage.
I don't think "audio off" was ever a reason.
This really grates my cheese
you'd think i'd have learned by now not to put my potato masher in the drawer. but you'd be wrong if you thought that.
That's uncanny. I thought I was the only one misplacing my German stick grenades like that.
Please refer to them by their proper german name stikkenboomens.
*Stielhandgranate, but yes it would be a much better potato masher than this sad mesh wire.
Dang I can't un-see that now. Its like the FedEx arrow.
YOU CANNOT HIDE FROM THE POTATO MASHA!
For me it’s the bakery gloves
What are bakery gloves? I've never heard of that before, and Google was not helpful.
Oven mitts
Literally had this 15 mins ago
I simply don't put these in a drawer.
Expert mode is the tongs that were locked closed when they went into the drawer, and have now expanded 3x the size they should be
That's the entire reason I use a wine bucket to house big utensils. I used a wide thin grill spatula and all of my patience opening that drawer.
The bucket is slightly bigger around and slightly taller than a cookie jar. It works great.
We use a combination of a tall vase for the big top heavy stuff and an old Jaegermeister ice bucket that came free with something decades ago. Nestled within each other. Holds all of the bigger cooking utensils like spatulas, spoons, tongs, etc.

Don't forget the tongs that's missing the lock thing and somehow ends up standing up wide open.
I threw an entire draw of utensils across the room because of one of those fuckers.
don't do that. dm me but don't do that
The apartment I bought had cabinets with fake, decorative drawers on them. Except it turned out that one of those drawers wasn't decorative. It was just stuck.
Inside there was a full set of silverware (as in literal silver) from the 60's complete with the original receipt. It's worth thousands of dollars. I guess whoever lived there before me was in no condition to pack and the people who packed didn't know about the silver...
Gonna pull extra hard on my fake drawers tonight.
Psh when I open random stuck drawers all I find is jars of teeth
Do you have any idea what jars of teeth go for these days???
