  • Several examples highlight especially impractical choices, including mixing different allergy pills into one bottle, washing laundry with an entire bag of pods and storing leftovers in odd containers.
  • The piece is framed as light internet content, ending with a pitch for a newsletter focused on funny, weird and wholesome stories rather than politics or celebrity news.
