Each day, someone is born that didn’t know the internet classic™ way to keep your hotel room’s blackout curtains together using the pants holder thingy on a hotel clothes hanger
@mathowie that's a skirt hanger.
@vathpela @mathowie it's a "omg this hotel room sucks" remediation device and @Obdurodon was the first person I saw using it
@amye @vathpela @mathowie FWIW, this was at the Marriott Lake Union (Seattle) in 2018. I'm sure I wasn't the first to have the idea, but it was original in the sense that I was unaware of precedents when I thought of it. After I posted on Xitter, it got into a bunch of "life hack" listicles, almost always using my picture to remove any doubt about where they got it. I'm probably better known for that than for anything I ever did professionally.
