A father of two teenagers, Will Reid, made a instructional video for his kids in an attempt to show them how to change a roll of toilet paper. Although the video was intended for teenagers, it can apply to anyone.

Enjoy!

A Southampton dad has turned to social media in a bid to get the message across to his teenage children about household chores.

Will Reid has posted what he refers to as the first in a series of ‘instructional videos’ to show his children James and Beth the basics of life.

Titled ‘how to change a toilet roll’, Mr Reid offers a step-by-step guide on restocking an empty loo roll holder with a fresh roll.

Clearly exasperated at not being able to get through to his kids, he says: ‘Obviously me telling them face-to-face is not working, so I’ve tried to be creative and I’ve come up with the idea of using social media to try to reach you.’

Realising every teenager’s worst nightmare of a cringe-worthy dad, Mr Reid name checks his children at the beginning of the video – making sure that everyone who knows a James or Beth Reid of Southampton are in on the joke.

Using phrases such as ‘I know this is a difficult one’, or ‘that might be a step too far’, Mr Reid’s sarcastic tutorial is sure to get a reaction from James and Beth, although it might not be the one he was hoping for.

Apparently you have been doing it all wrong! In Japan you need to be good at two things to be a good sushi chef… making sushi and being social. In the traditional way to eat sushi you converse with the chef over the Sushi while the chef is making the rolls.

Remember don’t shake it! Shaking is just for men to finish at the men’s room!

Coming to you straight from the sushi chef’s mouth, Munchies presents the dos and don’ts of eating sushi, as taught by Tokyo’s Naomichi Yasuda. Be warned: You’ve been doing it wrong.

Impress your friends at parties by teaching your dog to jump rope!

Step by step training using positive reinforcement training.
“Poisoning” the rope means the dog comes to associate it with bad feelings like punishment.
See our ‘Equipment for Dog Skipping‘ video.

If you cannot capture the jumping up try using nose targeting with your hand or a stick. Lifting it higher and higher until the dog has to jump for it. See my video on training a nose target.

How to turn a mayonnaise jar into a secret hiding place.

Enjoy!

In old times people used to keep money in the fridge. Well, actually not just in old times, they still do. Keeping money in the fridge might be safer than keeping it in the safe, as safe is obvious place to look for it.

In this project we converted a jar of mayonnaise to a secret safe.

You can keep it in the fridge. No one will know that it’s a secret safe in disguise.
