An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

My right sink was briefly occupied and my ocd was twitching, so I switched things up and used the left sink.   I feel like a rebel - almost a gadabout.   I'm still a bit anxious about it, but there's definitely a 'spring' in my step.

Which side has your garbage disposal? You may want to avoid using the side without the disposal for washing so you don’t accidentally wash down large food waste that will clog your drain.

Garbage disposal? in sinks? What's that?

It's an American thing.

Garbage disposals are motorized shredders that fit into the drain on a kitchen sink. It allows you to grind any waist that falls into the . While the benefits of composting definitely outweigh the potential benefits of grinding all your food waste, I still think there is benefit in having a garbage disposal. Some food waste will inevitably fall through to the drain and can cause buildup in the drain pipe, which will result in costly repairs at some point.
