cord

Sometimes when you travel, you need to adapt to survive. Literally.

The Y-split version is coming soon.

From the submitter:

"My laptop charger only works if it's bent in a gentle curve. So I bent some Q-tips and taped them on for support. Works like new."

From the submitter:

"A Chinese charger for an RC car was broken beyond repair and I had an extra cord lying around. Yeah, it's fugly but it works... and yes, the other hole is now plugged from inside the charger so it is actually safe too!"

The only issue with this "lock" is that it's less of a security mechanism and more of a test of strength between you and the person coming in. If a 300-pound linebacker gives the door just one good yank, he'll probably send you flying from the toilet seat with who-knows-what strewn all over the floor.

The submitter informs me that this fix for a broken exhaust pipe lasted nearly two months. Not bad!

Which is a more utile tool? A hot glue gun, or duct tape? I'll let you be the judge.

Looking forward to sweltering temperatures this summer? Now, with this fan fix, you can be marginally less sweltering! You're welcome.

You can get a kit for this Lucasnerd-approved cable organizer from GeekCook, or you can fix one up yourself using sections of that Princess Leia cardboard cut-out you owned in the '70s.

You did, don't deny it.
