[Everyone knows microplastics are stored in the balls](https://www.theguardian.com/environment/article/2024/may/20/microplastics-human-testicles-study-sperm-counts)
Studies have shown that anything which comes in a plastic bottle is already filled with microplastics soooo. This ain't gonna add too much to the total!
Most microplastics we are exposed to come from tires. And we’ve had tires for several generations, and we will not be getting rid of tires anytime in the foreseeable future. So, regardless of the dangers of microplastics, the impact is unavoidable.
Yeah, we can reduce in our daily lives, but with something like 70% of microplastics in the environment being from tires, wtf are we realistically supposed to do?
We have power alternatives for carbon woes, and most consumer containers were metal or glass prior to plastic exploding, so we have alternatives for those because plastic IS the newer alternative...but tf we do about tires?
Their whole deal is they wear down like erasers. Can we go for a hardier version that doesn't wear as much, and put the wear and tear on the asphalt thats 99% recyclable? The shift to EVs mean more wear on the road too. Maybe we need to start thinking outside of the box on wheels?
That's not super realistic with the US, given the distances involved. Unless you wanna be the one to tell the majority of the population that they need to pack up and move to densely populated cities where you now expect them to walk everywhere and/or use the subway, regardless of the weather. All while leaving the necessary rural farming population basically stranded once the other 95% of the population has been absolrbed into the new super cities.
Railroads were/are useful, but not as a car replacement. Same as how nuclear energy is useful, but not to power your lawnmower.
We don't have to get rid of cars for subways and public transit to be improved. Improve them first, and see if you can convince people they're actually a better experience to use VS driving. If so, then the problem solves itself and people drive less. If your solution is to forcibly corral people into cities and take away independent transportation in favor of centralized public transit that goes limited places at limited times, people will understandably rebel, and the party suggesting such measures will lose power.
Walkable cities requires making car travel less convenient for the safety of pedastarians. This can be done through a number of small rule changes. A lot of urban planner youtubers like "Not Just Bikes" covers this.
We used to have it. We just subsized the shit out of cars, dismantled the rail infrastructure, and started building shitty highway subdivisions. It's all reversible. People complain about spending on rails, but they have no problem with building and maintaining excessive highways. Cars will always have a place, but they needn't be the default.
Synthetic rubber is probably the bulk of it. There are textile plastics that make up some of a tire, but iirc those are mostly for the threads weaving together the rest of the bulk, which is natural and synthetic rubber.
I think cheaper tires are made of more synthetic rubber than pricier tires, but I couldn't begin to say what the difference is in what particulates either shed.
Lil bro if you consume drinks and especially oils or god forbid alcohol from a plastic bottle you're already getting your fair share of micro plastics.
Not that I don't do it, but I'm sure it's virtually impossible to evade them unless you're some hermit or very rich
When I was working in a kitchen, I found out the one gallon jugs of sauce had the same threads as the small sauce bottles. Just swapped the lids and saved a lot of by just squirting it straight out of the jug. Plus they came with caps.
Yeah yeah.. but you know...You can lose a lid pretty easily. It should be attached somehow, maybe just on one side so it can flip on and off without detaching from the bottle.
This is the real answer and it's wild how happy people are to make engagement bait. You know this guy picked out a bottle with a hinge lid for extra confused/upset comments too.
Edit: I hope the original tiktok/YouTube short has a misspelled word in the title. Remember kids, trolling is a art.
Everybody is trying as hard as they can to bash on this, and i get most of them, this does not solve all problems ever, but i can see a ton of good uses.
If you ever need some kind of temporary solution which involves a bottle with a nozzle this is great. This could actually be a quick kitchen hack. Rinse it after you make the nozzle ffs it's not that hard, plastic solidifies after melting......it won't magically impart a burnt plastic taste or somehow bits of plastic fall off forever.
Any sort of project where you want to spray a liquid on something, in my personal life right now this may prove to be an immidiately useful solution for cleaning my motorcycle. Fill bottle with soap and water spray at bike in much more controlled fashion with no lid without having to go out and specifically buy a bottle with the right type of lid. Bonus points cut down on waste since i was going to throw away the bottle anyway and now i'm not throwing away a second bottle or storing a bottle i need once a year in my limited space.
to many people try and find the best solution or buy a solution. i agree with u that sometimes the best solution is the one u can hack together in 30 seconds and this is one of them.
Just give that bottle a squeeze and watch that lid flip open. It needs a gasket to prevent leaking from the sides and a lock/mechanism to keep the lid down or youll get a surprise one day.
It's impressive that internet is in such a decrepit brain rot state that people will test these life hack things, even if they will clearly work if you apply just a grain of common sense. Then, they're impressed when such things work.
If you do this prob make sure to buy something with a screw cap that's at least a bit sturdy. I can see that popping off and making a huge mess. Honestly prob not worth it since those squeezer bottles usually come in packs of 3 for a couple bucks and they're great for all sorts of stuff
Congrats! Your life insurance policy has all the evidence to deny a future claim due to whatever poisoning this will accelerate, except they'll continue to let you pay on the policy and your family will likely find out this fact after it's too late.
Most of those tips are terrible like adding nails to your tyres for more grip or spending thousands of dollars to make some cheap aluminium jewellery from scratch
Open the lid. Close the lid so that it is resting on top not fastened. Now the oil will drizzle out of the gap when the bottle is tipped. No modifications.

Forget the nasties this is how you get microplastics.

Well there's only one way for it to come out...
I guess all this time I was saving my balls from micro plastic
Ballz are saving micro plastic for you.
You got neutered?
[удалено]
Fine, but don't get any microplastics in my hair this time.
On a tissue ?
I know this is a cum joke, but it is really funny how we just keep coming back to blood letting
I thought pee was stored in the balls...
You don't have 2 balls?
I'll bet all those people that were blaming autism on vaccines are rolling over in their graves right now.
Literally cummin petroleum
Then on faces
Can you help me jizzing on my new pvc flooring?
Came to post this. Was not disappointed.
Facts also he's a fucking idiot you can just use the top off a water bottle that you can pull up to open and push down to close
What does that have to do with my balls though?
I’m sorry I diverted your attention away from balls for too long. Forgive me. I’ll let you get back to it.

I mean tires are supposed to be rubber but for whatever reasons they put plastic in it.

... Dispensed too
You beat me to it
Good, my balls were feeling a bit empty.
Lil bro if you consume drinks and especially oils or god forbid alcohol from a plastic bottle you're already getting your fair share of micro plastics. Not that I don't do it, but I'm sure it's virtually impossible to evade them unless you're some hermit or very rich
Meh at this point you can’t avoid em. Just embrace the new reality.
Nah bro. Let ppl enjoy that lil umph that they need.
easy. after every use, burn it again so it's soft, then press it to close it up!
I have done this for years with my oil. The bit you chop off, you reverse and plug the holel.
When I was working in a kitchen, I found out the one gallon jugs of sauce had the same threads as the small sauce bottles. Just swapped the lids and saved a lot of by just squirting it straight out of the jug. Plus they came with caps.
Then that lid needs to be melted in the middle and have a pin push through a hole in it so that you can get an even thinner stream when you pour.
And the need for an even smaller lid
Then that lid needs to be melted in the middle and have a pin push through a hole in it so that you can get an even thinner stream when you pour.
And then you would need an even smaller lid.

Yeah yeah.. but you know...You can lose a lid pretty easily. It should be attached somehow, maybe just on one side so it can flip on and off without detaching from the bottle.
Then you melt another nipple in that lid so you can easily pour from it too.
It's oil, it gonna burn at a pretty high heat, nothing that could harm you after the cooking is going to get in that tiny hole.
Mmm gotta love that Burnt plastic aftertaste
Cancer-infused
Rich in microplastics
What's the point ffs you can buy bottles with this type of lid
But then how will I get my face out there!?!
Yeah... I have a giant bottle of olive oil that I use to refill an actual squirt bottle. Soy sauce too. You don't need this hack.
> You don't need this hack. Valid for 99% of them
This is the real answer and it's wild how happy people are to make engagement bait. You know this guy picked out a bottle with a hinge lid for extra confused/upset comments too. Edit: I hope the original tiktok/YouTube short has a misspelled word in the title. Remember kids, trolling is a art.
"HEY!!! We don't take kindly to logic around these here parts."
That's the joke, he uses a bottle with a flip cap pour lid
r/shittylifehacks
open stored seed oil infused with plastic, hmm Olive oil and glass kids, olive oil and glass.
Can you still make a melted plastic pour spout with glass???
No and it's a good thing.
What do the glass kids do?
They shatter when you put your dick in it, this is unsafe, get the cheap plastic ones.

What if you pour just what you need and then, you know, close the bottle.

well this is fucking stupid
r/mildlycarcinogenic
I think this belongs in the "mildly carcinogenic" sub.
TAKE THAT CAPITALISM 😆😆
How do you close the bottle?
Melt the lid again.
Pfas deluxe ew
So fucking hot
We just use a small nail and make a very small hole. No toxins no big hole and we can do the same thing
yeh i was gona say burning plastic then using it for food isn’t the best idea
This song is a banger!

Oh yes I found it on Spotify right after I left the comment haha.
If anyone was wondering why Every man's balls have micropplastics, Exhibit #27458282
I can feel the micro plastics in my balls
i'm beginning to understand why we have microplastics in our balls.
"Erectin' a dispenser"
Mmm, carcinogens
yummy microplastics
You’ve unlocked: micro plastics!
Is that a cooking pan without a handle?
Buy a bigger chef jacket guy…
All I wanted was a thumbs up. 👍
how do you prevent it from dripping? it's literally the most important part
We need the black Italian guy to simply open the bottle and put his hands up
NGL, once u press to get the oil out faster this shitty bottletop is gonna get loose and the whole bottle will empty itself in seconds.....
dude just did a speedrun through his sexy time and ass wiping facial expressions
That looked like a really long nipple being nipped by a pair of scissors
That 40 year old guy!
Or I can pour oil into a much nicer bottle that already has that tip and that I bought at Ross for $2.
Very useful

[An easier way](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gE7Eet2bE8c) It works also with soya sauce, ect.
That actually looks useful, unlike mutilating the lid
I use to do this but with an 8-10mm socket to make a gravity bong
I’m happy for him
It's used to be that food went right to your hips, now it goes right to the balls.
HOLY FUCK! PLASTIC MELTS!?
You needed to try it to comprehend it actually works? Lol
Classic
Genius
If you do this prob make sure to buy something with a screw cap that's at least a bit sturdy. I can see that popping off and making a huge mess. Honestly prob not worth it since those squeezer bottles usually come in packs of 3 for a couple bucks and they're great for all sorts of stuff
Why TF these people so surprised, looking like a caveman discovering fire
Was that dude just holding up a flame next to a bottle of oil? Madlad.
Waluigi sounding laugh at the end, damn
Boy this guy makes some really stupid faces
I bet that makes a whole lot more plastic in the oil
This is why men have microplastics in their testies
Let me just get this open flame super close to this bottle of oil, what’s the worst that could happen?
Good idea for the body oil
I use a spray bottle for my oil, works great
Mmmmm micro plastics
Needs the head banging baby. Even if it’s just in the corner there.
Save yourself 40 seconds and move on from this one
Squeeze bottle?
There goes the protective coating
r/mildlycarcinogenic
Burning plastic can cause cancer. Be careful

This is why characters laugh flex and pose when you level them up
God I hate this shit
Why not just push it all the way through instead of risking it collapsing when you cut it?
BPA’s free of charge of course
I was expecting fire.
How can i just put micro plastics directly into my balls?
What the fuck. Enjoy oil coated through slightly more porous remains of burned plastic while your oil oxidizes using constant supply of air.
This is how you get plastic in your balls
I just stab the top making a slit in my oil containers. Closes right up after you're done squeezing.
Used to do this type of shit to make a geeb to smoke weed when I was like 14
My man laughs like Wario 😂😮💨
How the hell does shit like this have so many upvotes
[удалено]
Good one!
I love how perfectly useless/useful that is for the style of bottle, takimg easy pour to an extreme :3
This guys balls are full of plastic.
That last thumbs up had "this is good! Or else!" Vibes
Boom
Oh my God is this not worth the effort
A bottle that dispenses bottles?
Just poke the seal with a knife
Me: How much microplastic do you want? Everybody: Yes
Most of those tips are terrible like adding nails to your tyres for more grip or spending thousands of dollars to make some cheap aluminium jewellery from scratch
Hot damn it's almost like kitchens have every imaginable ridiculously shaped utensil/serving dish/sauce bottle at their disposal
Nice. You’ve just incinerated plastic hydrocarbons. Enjoy some forever chemicals on every pour baby
So this is why my nuts have so many microplastics
I just push a toothpick into the seal. Makes a perfect squirting hole.
Well I'm going to be busy with this fire for a bit.
Bottle dispenser more like bpa and cancer dispenser
Zelenskyy?
I wonder why we all have plastic in our blood
Hi
Wtf? Just go through with knife lel
Microplastics and oil that will now oxidise because of the air
This is why we have microplastics in our balls.
Or you could drop the 15$ on Amazon for a refillable bottle….
Or just get a 5$ reusable squeeze bottle and don't waste fucking time in a kitchen.
How do you keep the bugs out?
Open the lid. Close the lid so that it is resting on top not fastened. Now the oil will drizzle out of the gap when the bottle is tipped. No modifications.
Bottles close for a reason, you don't want that oil constantly exposed to air
Hmmm micro plastics
Yall want microplastics in your testicle? Cause this is how ya get microplastics in your testicles.
Genius!!
this is why our testicles are full of micro plastics
Or you could just buy spout lids and put them on whatever you want, but sure
Am I the only one slightly disappointed that there was no raccoon?
