Defrosting the freezer.


I used to live in a cold house, proper cold like. In the mornings during winter, we'd set up the hairdryer and then get dressed in front of it

Did you pretend you were in a 80's rock video every morning?

I regularly get out of the shower in the morning and find my missus sitting in a towel half asleep with the hairdryer blasting away in her general direction. Think it's the same instinct that makes cats sit on warm bonnets.

Unfreezing the stop cock out on the main road that wasn't put in deep enough in the first place by the council. 4 extension leads linked together, down the garden, and sit there for half a bloody hour on Christmas morning trying to get some water running in the house.

For the cold nights. Get a shoe or slipper stand it under your bed clothes at the head of the bed and put hair dryer going next to shoe. A few minutes and bed is warm. Faster than any electric blanket.

I do the 'sock over the hairdryer' thing but not with wet socks, I just do it on cold mornings so my socks are nice and toasty before I put them on.

My friend was telling me the other day that shes often too lazy regarding clothes washiñg and she sometimes uses the hairdryer to dry her underwear. With socks she will put the sock around the nozzle and blast a bit of hot air inside the sock.

As well as that her friends once painted on a house wall. She had to paint over it before her landlady inspected it and she used the hairdryer to dry the wall paint.

I often use a hairdryer to defrost the freezer when it gets too frozen over.

Any other uses (besides the obvious) for a hair drier?

Never realised my hairdresser worked for Mossad. When she asked if I had any holiday plans, I thought she was just making conversation.

Sticking the end of hairdryer in socks to heat instantly (winter time)

Warming the bed with!

Blow away fluff.

Great heat when you are freezing

After giving birth and having a shower I used the hair dryer to dry "my bits" and keep the towel decent looking.

Maybe this should be on the cooking thread but if you stick one up a Duck's ar$e you can dry out the flesh prior to making crispy duck.

This is so wrong.. and dangerous...... you aren't meant to put air up there, something to do with blood vessels and that air thing you can get that kills you


"When air is blown or forced directly into a vagina — without allowing any air to escape — an air embolism (the abnormal presence of air in the cardiovascular system) could form, which can be fatal. Women who are more at risk for this unlikely possibility are those whose pelvic vessels are enlarged (meaning, increased blood supply to the vagina) due to a condition such as trauma and possibly pregnancy. So, if a very large amount of air were to be blown or forced into their vaginal canals, it's possible that the air could enter their bloodstream, causing a blockage in a blood vessel. As a result, some of these women, perhaps including the pregnant women's fetus, may experience complications. In extraordinary cases, some of these women (and the fetus) may die if the embolism travels to the heart or lungs."

Yup. Point it upwards with the warm air on and plop in the ball. Youll keep it floating in midair and look like mothafuggin Gandelf while doing it.
