You’re playing fetch with your doggie when all of a sudden you see something falling down from the sky. It’s glowing and has a large tail behind it. It’s speeding down at an alarming rate, getting ever closer.You try to grab your pooch to take it inside, but it goes stubborn, barking and growling.

Moving objects through a door when it keeps closing is super annoying. So instead, tie a rubber band around the handle on each side of the door so that it crosses over the latch. The latch then won’t be able to pop out, and the door won’t lock shut. To check whether your bedsheets are fully dried, take a mirror and place it underneath. Leave it there for around 5 minutes and if it steams up, it means the sheets are still damp. A damp bed can be a breeding ground for mold and other nasty fungi.

Night. You and your friends are riding bikes around a small city and notice a meteorite flying in the sky. It burns with a bright green flame and then falls right into a small pond near the town. You instantly dash to the crash site. The water on the pond’s surface is foaming and bubbling.
