Ever struggle to pull the wad of cotton from a pill bottle?  Use this trick my dad taught me when I was about 5 years old:

Stick a regular cotton swab into it and spin the swab with your fingers.  The cotton in the bottle sticks to the cotton on the swab as you spin it, wrapping it tight around the swab.  Now you have a handle for pulling out the cotton.

Ask me about my 50 caliber Fully Semi-Automatic 30-Mag clip death gun that's as heavy as 10 boxes that you might be moving.

Why stop there? You now have:

A.) The mother of all Q Tips
B.) Half of a firestarter (just add petroleum jelly)

Sorry, I didn't mean to "make a wish/destroy a wish," this one, but I couldn't resist. I'll see myself out now.

Use one of those long wood shaft ones and some vaseline and you have a tiki torch for Ken and Barbie
