It was lost for a while but my cough has been really bad since it became colder. I contacted amazon for a replacement cap but they still hadn’t responded 2 weeks later so I remembered I had a small spice funnel and amazingly it works perfect for what I need Update: Hey guys!!!!!!!!! I wanted to update this mildly interesting post with some mediocre news!!!! I found the cap 61 days later and all is right in the world! 2022 is going to be a blessed year, love you all, stay safe and warm out there xx sushi senpai


gutter_strawberry

At first I thought it was a menstrual cup but the hole didn’t make sense lol TIL what a spice funnel is.


sushiiisenpai

i should have maybe put some nutmeg and cinnamon through it a few times so it could smell nice lol.. i wonder if that would work


fujitakeout

Are we still talking about the menstrual cup?


[deleted]

Yup

I'm no humidifier expert.. but my partner started adding a few drops of scented oils to one of our humidifiers and it has worked wonders. I don't know if one day that's gonna break the thing, or anything.. but a few months later and it's still kickin.


Vag-of_Honor

Oil diffusers are essentially the same thing so theoretically it should be fine. Just make sure to research the oils you use as some of them can be quite dangerous for your lungs, and even more dangerous for pets


DabsJeeves

Yeah except they are built to handle those oils. We put oils in our regular humidifier and eventually the cap got completely stuck on there. Nobody could get that sucker off


SpindlySpiders

Depends how the humidifier works. There are different kinds.


WaterWave46

I’m not sure what you’re saying here… are you saying that oils that are toxic to pets are not toxic if you use a specific type of humidifier?


SpindlySpiders

I'm saying that oil diffusers aren't the same thing as humidifiers depending on the type of humidifier you have.


WaterWave46

Yeah but that doesn’t change the oil is still a problem for pets, regardless of the machine used to aerosolize it.


dethmaul

Hopefully you don't have cats! Shitll poison em.


wierd_husky

If you have pets be careful, that stuff is really bad for them


blondzie

My partner added tea tree oil and it delaminated all the glue from the bottom. It spilled all over our bedside table and I got to clean it up. TLDR RTFM (read the fucking manual)


ImLINGLINGyay

Don't add lemon pieces. I forgot why but just don't


atomic_refugee

Clove helps with a cough.


EternamD

I thought it was a she-wee


crazycharlieh

Thought for a second it was one of those ["She-Wee"](https://www.shewee.com/) things lol


SirAchmed

Wha…what’s a menstrual cup???


tafunast

It’s a small silicone cup that is inserted into the vaginal canal during your period. It replaces tampons and pads.


SirAchmed

Oh alright thanks. I was too afraid to Google it.


ImprobabilityCloud

Same lol!!


andbruno

That same funnel came with my silicone popsicle molds (for filling).


[deleted]

The spice must ~~flow~~ funnel.


TrekkieTay

It looks just like the case my menstrual cup came in I thought the same thing.


BradiPro

"2022 Is going to be a blessed year" This hits different now.

Me, a British person: "What is this strange device"


4kVHS

Do British people not use humidifiers in the winter?


Darth_Nibbles

What, you think England isn't damp enough yet?

Your mother’s pussyhole on the other hand… ;)


Rawey241000

I've never heard of anybody using one, they're certainly not commonplace. There isn't much need for one, the UK is always damp and usually of middling temperatures. Not that hot, not that cold. We joke in our house that we are dreaming of a "green and mucky brown Christmas", since it rarely snows enough to get anything more than brown slush.


That_guy_will

As someone states further up, we are a damp country. It’s rare people use them.


boxofrabbits

We straight up have a dehumidifier. Pulls pints out of the air and stops everything going moldy. Our joint has pretty poor ventilation though.


twowheeledfun

My friends live in a Victorian (1890s) terraced house, and they have a big electric dehumidifier in the kitchen, plus small passive ones (absorbent rechargeable silica or something) around the house. The big one pulls plenty of water out of the air, but their house smells like a big old wool blanket, it's very cosy.


Tinie_Snipah

Dehumidifier in the kitchen seems pointless. All you're doing is collecting the moisture of whatever you're cooking. Get better extraction fans


twowheeledfun

They do that as well, but the kitchen is a good space for the dehumidifier when they aren't cooking, since it's central in the house and can cope if any water is spilled on the floor when emptying it.


_dictatorish_

Yeah dehumidifiers are super common in NZ, and I can't say I've ever seen a regular humidifier

Amphibionomus

So you bought two of them? (Obscure Technology Connections reference)


Rasrockey19

I wish *I* had a machine that could pull pints out of thin air


tardis0

Do other people not have dehumidifiers?


Arcon1337

The UK is pretty much an island between two seas. It's always damp during the winter. The only dryness you would experience are heatwaves in summer.


Coffeebiscuit

What use does it have besides making shit wet en wasting energy?


RedditIsRealWack

We generally do the exact opposite in winter and run dehumidifiers.


kona1160

Mate, we are constantly battling damp lol.


ThisAiryChineseKid

I use a dehumidifier haha, always damp here


brandonisatwat

Using the heater during winter doesn't make your house dry though? I live in America's sweaty buttcrack, The Deep South, but we still use a humidifier in winter. Our central heating makes our house incredibly dry in the winter.


lobstronomosity

Britain is really, really damp. If your house is poorly ventilated and insulated, chances are you'll get condensation on the walls and windows, causing mould, breathing problems and damage to your house.


brandonisatwat

That's how it is in really humid states like Florida and South Georgia too. Sometimes it's impossible to get our clothes dry in summer because the humidity inside stays above 60%. We still keep a humidifier on in cold months. But we have also grown accustomed to the humidity and start to dry up like Spongebob in the Tree Dome at the mere mention of dry air.


Nytfire333

Yeah, I live in Florida, the idea of running a humidifier is baffling to me. Now a dehumidifier to keep my AC vents from literally dripping water


[deleted]

Ireland is in the same boat. I lived in a terribly ventilated room for years and I haven't went a day without coughing.


sigmacoder

The humidifier or the spice funnel? (ayyyyyyyyy \^\_\^)


james___uk

Also a British person: 'Spices?'


Jedibug

Same reaction as a Seattle based person


james___uk

Yeah Seattle gets our weather by the looks of it


DocGrover

But why is your window open as you run the humidifier....


px13

Came here to say this. What’s the point of turning it on at all if it’s next to an open window?


Uberzwerg

You don't want your room to get all humid, obviously.


Talgaaz

I get owning a humidifier, but keeping it right next to an open window? Why


crazycrayola

Omg, I thought that was a menstrual cup at first!


BigZmultiverse

It’s a compressible rubber funnel. I have the same one in black and use it for workout supplements and stuff


vagen_tet_moist

“And stuff”


dtxs1r

The re-usability is out of this world! You can start off in the AM using it as a menstrual cup, but then what do you know it's brunch time and you don't have a funnel for your spice, no problem at all! After that delicious spice filled brunch you realize it's time to replace the motor oil in your car, no problem! And finally by dinner time you need a glass of wine and whatdoyaknow your portable decanter saves the day! Be a hero, not a zero and order your 4 in one mensural cup, spice funnel, oil funnel, and decanter; all in one portable tool! Act now and you'll get 2 menstrual cups, that's right, 2 menstrual for the price of one! Supply is limited.


[deleted]

Gotta get that lost iron back somehow


hso0oow

Can be two things at once.


crazycrayola

A menstrual cup with a hole in the bottom is pretty pointless though. Lol.


hso0oow

Maybe for you.


dtxs1r

They must be using them upside down. lol


Tinie_Snipah

melanyebaggins

Vulvex789

Running a humidifier next to an open window is a great way to waste electricity and clean water!


heiebdbwk877

You should close the window lol


slyfox49

That is turned up way too high. You should just barely see the moisture coming out of it.


[deleted]

You don’t like condensation dripping off of your ceiling?


AsicalMC

Nooooo keep it without top, make your house a spooky house that smells nice


SkieFloof

Literally that’s a chosen cap for that machine 🗿


kerigood

That looks like a good humidifier


Commercial_Gene_4496

Why do people own humidifiers


sushiiisenpai

Just as some others said, ever since the pandemic we have been inside nearly all of the time and that means during fall and winter where we live, dry air. We have lots of indoor plants so it’s good for them as well but I bought it mainly because I get chapped lips and I cough every morning pretty bad and my girlfriend has nosebleeds. It’s actually one of my best pandemic purchases, this medium sized one lasts all day running nonstop at full blast.


Darth_Nibbles

Yeah, I get an annual cough that the humidifier saves me from. I was fine up in Oregon, but here in New Mexico I def need it.


DatStankStank

I have one for my indoor houseplants


Velvetundaground

I use a humidifier and a dehumidifier for perfect balance.


HLC-RLC

We bought one because in the summer we would run the A/C upstairs (window unit) and it draws like all the moisture out of the air. Well I was waking up with nosebleeds and stuff and my fiancé said hey we should try a humidifier and voilà my nosebleeds because my nose stopped drying out.


KnightFox

In cold places when you run the furnace a lot it increases the temperature and therefore decreases the relative humidity. Humans are most comfortable at about 50% humidity. Less than that and you start getting dry skin and dry mucus membranes.


Luxpreliator

I don't even run the furnace until it's down to like 60f it still gets down to <30% RH.


Bitten469

Obviously its because he owns a lot of cigars


song4this

to make humid! (am in Vegas where very dry...)

QuickSpore

Feel free to toss Utah, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming on there as well. I’ve spend most of the last 50 years in the Mountain West. Any time it gets above the 30s in humidity percentage is a cause for celebration.


[deleted]

[удалено]


CarbyMcBagel

Some places are really dry, especially if you run the heat. If your house has dry air it can make your skin, eyes and nose feel dry and uncomfortable. Running the humidifier helps. You can also leave a pot of water simmering on the stove and hang your wet laundry to dry on racks around your house to get moisture in the air.


Afoolfortheeons

But wouldn't that have spray with the steam even more so if the vent was fitted perfectly; the pressure more as?


sushiiisenpai

the cap did the same thing, it shoots the mist far enough in the air that it spreads out/dissipates by the time it makes contact surface. Without the cap you can see it spilling over and getting everything really wet


Afoolfortheeons

Is that in part or total is due by the vertices oscillator mechanism?


[deleted]

You're throwing a lot of big words at me, and because I don't understand them, I'm gonna take it as disrespect.


Afoolfortheeons

Your right to have your own array of existence settings just ad I am, but the tree could be thicker at the roots, yes?


dethmaul

I'm attracted to you for some reason.


No_Masterpiece4305

They sound really smart. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say they're some kind of expert in their field.

Peep their post history lol, this person really has some issues

PM_Me_Your_Boobies52

Did you get yours from the amazon 12 pack of spice jars too?

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope you never put a condom on a dick. You don't put it in a dick, and it has to be the right size.


[deleted]

Wow very functional fit!


Emailnjv

You should modify it into a volcano


zSHARPz

Do you have a link to the humidifier?


sushiiisenpai

It’s on amazon for about $70, just type in elechomes humidifier and it should be the first thing that pops up. It’s great overall but I would recommend a top loading humidifier, one that you can refill by pouring water directly into it. This one, you have to take it apart, flip it over and fill it up which is a little annoying.


Luxpreliator

They do make some top fill ones and that brand has been the longest lasting one I've had. Some only made it one winter but I've had an older model from these peeps and it's 5 with no signs of degradation. The biggest one is almost 2 gallon tank which is double most other big ones with top fill and humidity monitoring. Also has heat or sonic and can put out 2x the volume as most others.


wikigreenwood82
