    I can now finally solder things easier.

    Drink my coffee while gaming.

    Use Push to Talk a lot more while gaming.

    Hold the ladder, brace, and hold a nail and hammer all at the same time.

    Omg, I can finally use my cane and carry more than one f*n thing at a time! Or - on a rough day - use my walker and carry my coffee without fear of a tiny bump into something spilling coffee everywhere! It’s the little things like that that I miss

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

        I appreciate your suggestion, and because you did nothing wrong, I’ve deleted each snarky reply that came out by reflex.

        If you have a brand that doesn’t leak, slosh, make my coffee taste like ass, or cost a shit ton of money, I’d take that suggestion far more seriously than

        Try a lid?

        Because, duh.

            I can try a different kind of thermos again, why not.

            Thank you, kind internet stranger.

            (☞゚ヮ゚)☞

            ETA: That came out snarkier than I had intended. This is a problem that can be solved by buying new shit and risking it not working too. I’m just an idiot and an asshole. Sorry.

              I have that one. It works decently. No handle but it’s not hard to grip on the outside. You can put it in a bag without spilling coffee.

                If it closes well enough that it can go in a bag or pocket, the handle doesn’t matter as much. Thanks - since I don’t go to many stores and I block as many ads as possible, I may have never known it existed.

                ETA: I appreciate the suggestion and link. Something for me to look into, since I kinda do deserve nice things.

          It probably falls into the “costs a shit ton” but some people recommend the fellow carter mug. I’ve never tried it myself, but apparently ceramic-coated insides are best for not affecting the taste of coffee. I think I also saw some kind of ceramic-coated travel mug at Starbucks too? Can’t speak for how spill-proof either of those things are though

            Yeah, I have one from Starbucks - it was a gift, and I don’t know if they are all like this one - but the lid has a tendency to slosh and seep. At least it doesn’t affect the flavor, tho! If I would just take half a cup, it would probably work - but then I have to go back more often.

            I have a tendency to overlook the “shishi” brands (that cost more so you can have their logo? But what the hell, I don’t even want a logo!) (Lol - conspicuous consumption kinda irks me) and don’t have a ton to spend on expensive mugs one after another… but I guess I deserve nice things that let me live “normally,” so maybe I should spend a shit ton on a single mug finally.

            Anyway, thank you! Ceramic insides seem to be on my list of must-haves.

    By being overqualified for handshakes and using that as a power move to establish dominance via awkwardness

        Don’t forget Trump, I’d be using all three remaining arms to shake him vigorously during the handshake. Diplomatically, of course.

          Hmm…soft diplomacy or hard diplomacy?

            Soft to start, but I reckon he’ll get harder the more vigorously I shake him. Who knows though, he may just jiggle around semi-limp like a just-came-2min-ago dick

        With my current two-arm setup I constantly need one hand on the keyboard for shortcuts, and the other one on the mouse or pen tablet. 3D graphics software is punishing like that.

        With four hands though, not only I shouldn’t waste time putting the pen down to pick the mouse, I’d even get the luxury of holding a cup of coffee in my fourth hand while I work!
