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

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 or advice forum.
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, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

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. Not 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.

8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.

I boiled two eggs. I would have boiled more eggs, but when I asked if anyone else wanted boiled eggs, they said they did not want boiled eggs. (lemmy.ml)

Hard boiled peeled eggs can be stored for up to five days in a ziplock in the refrigerator. You can go wild next time. I wonder if there's a community for that...

i personally just put them unpeeled in the fridge and then skip the peeling process entirely when i go to eat them.

instead of peeling them, i smack them on the outside with a spoon to create a crack, then rip the eggs in half. afterwards, i can use the spoon to scoop out the insides of each half. usually takes me way less time than peeling, but im also not very good at peeling

Why the ziplock bag?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Because if they are peeled the oxygen can get in, i'm guessing.

So the whole refrigerator doesn't smell like farty eggs. A jar with a lid works, too.

Ah I see. Thanks for explaining. I store them unpeeled, indeed.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Because the eggs are unable to open the bag due to lack of opposable thumbs
