That sounds like a handy tip.
handy tip
Is that when you give someone a tip on top of their pay for giving you a handy?
… why is there a packaged hand in that freezer? Am I the only one noticing this?

Great website
Lol I forgot .zip is a TLD now.
Such a bad idea
I’m not allowed to open zip files
Came here to ask that too… is it really supposed to be a joke, and that’s it?
I really have to hand it to your superior powers of deduction at this point.
In my defense I’m not the sharpest tool in the wetlands.
That’s the other tip: Stock up on hands. You could get frostbite from handling all those frozen bottles and need to chop your hands off.
Yes
You’re the only one missing the joke
You should probably give them a hand in understanding the joke
You are the only one. All I see is water bottles.
Mmm…finger food…
The real question is why is there bar code on the package hand. That almost sounds like the bought it at a store.
Handy after a hurricane
Ngl I got through way more comments just giving good advice on hurricane prep and not on the obvious meme of butchered hand
Non-hurricane everyday tip: Put a 1/3 to 1/2 full water bottle in your freezer upside down. Once it’s frozen keep it in the freezer right side up so that the ice is suspended in the top of the bottle. If you ever open your freezer and see the ice back in the bottom of the bottle it means your freezer has lost power long enough to thaw, and you may need to throw some food out.
I’ve personally found this tip to be extremely handy.

I see what you did there.
Used to do this with our big chest freezer. It’s a good tip. High five!
Sometimes I like to boil all my water at the start of the month and then freeze it, to save time when cooking pasta. Always hate having to wait for water to boil first.
Funny enough boiling water freezes faster in theory.
I’m far too lazy to look this up. Is this the sort of interesting fact I might mention in conversation to appear clever without somebody quickly correcting me and making me look silly?
I’ll do you one better and give you the name of the phenomenon.
Worth mentioning that the effect is barely observable under controlled conditions. To the point where the existence of the effect is in doubt.
So it’s the perfect conversation starter, is what you’re saying?
When doing that, full them only to 80-90% to avoid them bursting while freezing
Who are you, and why do you have my masturbation hand in your freezer?
Do you have any idea how hard that was to get?
Wouldn’t the loss of cool air from opening the fridge repeatedly negate the benefit of doing this? Or would one simply remove multiple bottles at once strategically over time? I admit, this sounds like an interesting idea; just not sure what the “most-correct” strategy would be for extending food preservation.
The thermal mass of the air is negligable in comparison to that of the bottles. Thats why generally filling your fridge with random stuff is actually beneficial because once they are cooled down it will decrease the loss of energy whenever you open the fridge.
The most important thing is to keep your hands cold.
As someome mentioned, the thermal mass of water is way higher than air, but also, this is the problem that deep freezers solve! Afaik, deep freezers open from the top meaning the cold air does not flow out when you open it. That saves effeciency on your heat pump.
Another neat thing you can do depending on where you live is set a timer on your deep freeze so it only turns on at night. This benefits you if you get charged electricity depending on the hour of the day, meaning you are charged nore during peak hours. Since the deep freeze has high thermal mass and low energy transfer, it stays cold all day.
not sure where you are from but there are also deep freezers that look like fridges. they also don’t run the compressor the whole time, so there is no need to only ‘turn them on’ when electricity is cheap (which, from a european pov is all ghr time in thr USA). if they get above a certain threshold, they turn on and then off again when reaching the target temperature. that usually takes about 10 minutes. if you only turn it on at night it might be running way longer than when it’s on the whole time…
“most correct” would be to never ever open the fridge.
Obviously as you need things in it, you’ll have to open it.
I didn’t even see it until coming to the comments…
I did this but the power never went out. I don’t drink bottled water, but my freezer is full of them now now. Do I just defrost them all in a big pot or something?
Well what you could do is try hand ing them out to your neighbours.
Water? Like from the toilet?
no, from perspiration. salty!
if you used hot water just empty a bottle in a pot and cook a nice warm soup with the frozen hot water
DIY power outage?
Can confirm this is legit because of the Publix spring water
storing raw meat on the same shelf as ready to eat foods
oh you best fucking hope the health inspector doesn’t see this
Ready to eat water?
IT’S FACKING RAUGH :gordon-ramsay:
Kira’s fridge
Such a beautiful duwang.
