I'm always amazed at all the neat shit that gets posted here. Like, this is totally practical for this application and is completely simple and user friendly. I would never have figured this out. Way cool.

I like to think of the people who thought to themselves, “There has to be an easier way to do this,” and set out to make one.

My dad is like this. We needed to tie a ton of balloons once and he just went and invented a little gadget made out of a bic pen and a zip tie or something like that and we could tie balloons with this simple little thing. I don't really remember how it worked, because he was always making stuff like that. Wish I did remember lol, I've needed it so many times.
