Everyday items around us often have hidden features we don’t even realize are there! For example, the tiny hole in a pen cap isn’t just for looks—it’s there to keep air flowing if someone accidentally swallows it. Ever notice the extra fabric that comes with new clothes? It’s not just for patches; it’s so you can test how the fabric reacts to washing! The hole in pot handles is meant for hanging, but it can also hold a stirring spoon while you cook. If you look closely at your car’s gas gauge, you might see a small arrow showing which side your gas tank is on. Even your toothpaste tube has a colored bar at the end, which helps machines sort it during manufacturing. Everyday items are full of these cool little secrets that make life easier in ways we never even noticed!

00:00A label on your panties digging into your most sensitive spots is definitely not the
00:05best feeling.
00:06Sure, you can cut it off, but often that just leaves even sharper corners that can be more
00:11annoying.
00:12But what if you've been cutting those labels wrong this whole time?
00:16Check it out.
00:17On the left, the label is sewn into the seam, while on the right, it's just hanging on by
00:22a couple of threads.
00:23Just snip those threads, and voila!
00:26It's like the label was never even there.
00:29Plus, with this little hack, you can always pick panties in the store that are guaranteed
00:33to be comfy.
00:35If you've traveled to Europe recently, you may have noticed how nasty the bottle caps
00:39have become.
00:40Yeah, according to the law, they now have to scratch your nose.
00:44Oops, sorry, they have to be attached right to the bottle.
00:47If these bottles annoy you too, try this.
00:50Once you open the bottle, rotate the cap 90 degrees, and pull until one of the plastic
00:55connections breaks.
00:57And finally, turn the bottle until the cap touches your chin, not your nose, and drink.
01:04You've been using the colander in the wrong way all this time.
01:07This smart kitchen device has a hidden function.
01:10The traditional way of draining noodles involves dumping boiled noodles into a colander, right?
01:16But if your colander is about the same size as your pot, try this instead.
01:21Place the colander on top of the pot with the noodles, like a lid, and drain the water
01:25out.
01:26This method is faster and less messy, and it keeps your noodles in the pot where they
01:31belong.
01:34Toilet plungers and sink plungers are quite different, and the toilet version has a handy
01:38rubber flap, called a flange, that pops out from the cup.
01:42This flange fits snugly over toilet drains, giving you strong suction to tackle stubborn
01:48clogs.
01:50While a sink plunger won't help with toilet troubles, the toilet plunger can work on your
01:54sink or tub.
01:56Just make sure to keep that flap tucked inside the cup.
01:59And don't forget to give it a thorough clean with bleach before switching from toilet to
02:03sink use.
02:04You definitely don't want to mix things up.
02:08If you still work in an office, next time you print out something, make sure to check
02:12out this stapler built right into the printer.
02:15It can staple all the documents that fit in the slot at the same time.
02:19By the way, it's not something new.
02:22Such printers have been around since the 90s.
02:26Why buy a ruler and spend your hard-earned dollars if you can simply use a dollar bill
02:31to measure whatever you want?
02:33Only as long as this whatever is somewhere around 6 inches.
02:38A dollar bill is just about this size.
02:42Even though many people are sure that those tiny holes on the bottom left side of your
02:46iPhone are the speaker, they're actually a microphone.
02:50And speaking of iPhones, if you've got one of the latest models and your phone is out
02:54of juice but there's no socket to be found nearby, here's a nifty trick.
02:59Grab a double-ended charger cord and connect it to another iPhone 15.
03:04Boom!
03:05Your phone gets a little power boost.
03:08I bet you've noticed that the hook on a tape measure is a little loose.
03:11Well, that's intentional.
03:13The hook moves just enough to account for its own thickness, ensuring both inside and
03:18outside measurements are accurate.
03:20So if you ever thought it was broken, nope, it's just doing its job.
03:24As for the hole at the end, it's for placing the tape on the edge of a nail to get measurements
03:29from odd spots.
03:32The pockets on new suits are sewn shut to keep the jacket's shape during transportation
03:37and display.
03:38Of course, you can unpick them to use the pockets but you need to be careful with what
03:42you put there.
03:44Anything heavy can easily distort the suit's shape.
03:47The important thing though is to remember to cut the threads holding the back vents
03:51together for better movement and comfort.
03:53Oh, and remember to cut those tacky stitches that fasten your new coat's vent, that flap
03:59on the back.
04:00Now, that sink squeegee thing actually hides a big secret.
04:06It can store water.
04:08Many sink squeegees have tiny holes that allow water to stay inside.
04:12But why would we need that water?
04:15Oh, you can release it as you squeegee, which will help you rinse the sink as you clean
04:19it.
04:20Here's a travel tip that will help you understand US highways.
04:25In the US, highways with even numbers run east-west and those with odd numbers run north-south.
04:32If a highway number starts with an odd digit, it's a spur, which means it doesn't reconnect
04:37to the main highway.
04:39If it starts with an even digit, it's a loop around or through a city that eventually
04:43reconnects with the main highway.
04:46And finally, numbers divisible by five are major highways meant for cross-country travel.
04:54Your iPhone camera can also translate laundry symbols, identify plants, and even recognize
05:00some bird species.
05:02It's like having a mini-encyclopedia in your pocket.
05:06Another trick, when using the markup feature while editing your photos, you might want
05:11to highlight a part of a picture.
05:13Put a circle around the needed area and keep your finger pressed down at the end of the
05:17stroke.
05:18Voila!
05:19Instead of a misshapen circle, you get a perfect one.
05:22It also works for squares, triangles, and stars.
05:26Barilla, probably the most famous pasta in the world, has teamed up with Spotify to create
05:32playlists that match the cooking time for different pasta shapes.
05:36Just start the playlist when you drop the pasta into boiling water.
05:40And when the music stops, your pasta is ready.
05:44Toasters have crumb trays at the bottom that you can and should clean regularly.
05:50Just slide it out and dump the crumbs.
05:52It's an easy way to keep your toaster clean and working well.
05:57You can use Google Maps to share your location in real time.
06:01Just tap your account icon, select Location Sharing, and choose how long to share.
06:06Your friends can track your progress and be ready when you arrive.
06:09You can also save your parking location by clicking the blue dot.
06:14Do you know that the knobs on some ovens have calibration screws on the back?
06:19You can adjust them to get more accurate temperature control.
06:22It'll definitely help you avoid overcooking or undercooking your meals.
06:28In non-prepaid gas stations in the U.S., try pressing Enter before swiping your debit or
06:33credit card.
06:34It'll take you to the prepaid screen, and you can enter the amount you need manually.
06:41If you're drinking outside on a windy day, place some coins in an empty cup, and then
06:46put the cup you're drinking from inside the first one.
06:49The weight of the coins will help you keep your drink from getting blown over.
06:53Simple, but effective.
06:56Once you've peeled your potato, you might spot some tiny divots, known as eyes, that
07:01still have some skin on them.
07:04Many peelers come with a handy scoop designed to tackle these little guys.
07:08Just take the scoop, dig in, and pop them out.
07:11Easy peasy.
07:12Your favorite potato recipe will be totally eye-free in no time.
07:18A cell phone's camera can help you to figure out whether your remote is working.
07:23The camera is sensitive to infrared, so you just need to turn it on and point the remote
07:27at the camera while pressing the remote's buttons.
07:30You'll see the LED flashing in response.
07:33If you spot nothing, something is definitely wrong with the remote.
07:38Bonus fact here!
07:40White vinegar isn't just for cooking, it's also the real laundry hero.
07:44If you add it to your laundry, it'll take out all the bad smells from your clothes.
07:49The amount to add can be anywhere from a splash to a cup during the wash.
07:54And don't worry about the vinegar smell, it washes away completely, leaving your clothes
07:58fresh.
07:59It's also great for removing hard water buildup.
