A box of disposable wooden chopsticks.

Do you ever want to poke something? Unjam your weed pipe? Stir tortilla dough? Scrape some unspeakable crap off the garage floor and then discard the scraping thing? Chopsticks are so insanely useful when you have a jar full of them and you just grab them and use them for any disposable task.

The cheapest are the best because they flex and they are rough. Because of the texture, they are very absorbent. The head of it is square so if you need to have a scraping edge you've got it, and then the tapered tip fits into so many areas. You can snap them in half, jam a wad of paper in the middle for a fulcrum, and using an elastic band on the other end turn them into quick clips

I don't even want to go on and on about all the things I use them for, because this would be the longest Lemmy comment in history.
