http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonsillolith --> Read this.
It's one of the stinkiest and most disgusting among human waste products. -_- Many of you have probably seen this already without realizing it or knowing what it's called.

Has it ever happened to you that you still wanted to wear the same pair of jeans/jacket/whatever but they just stank too much from not being washed? Just spray cheap vodka on it.
You can buy a bottle of cheap Vodka for around P20, and just screw an atomizer on top. It'll fit. Spray till clothing is slightly damp. Air-dry.
The alcohol disinfects it and the evaporation takes most odors with it. Tried it on my raw denim the other day. It really worked.

Damn, I think our water bill level at home just dropped.
RE: The Trivia Thread - NiX - 11-19-2009
Hahah I recommend Cossack vodka. Cheapest shit I saw on the shelf. Gin might also work.
Note though, that the vodka won't remove dirt, dead skin cells, stains, whatever. It'll just disinfect and deodorize (in case this wasn't blatantly obvious
)

Hmm... Might Try that someday for that leather bag my cousin gave me... Amoy kung ano eh.

Just a question though, does the vodka trick work for all kinds of cloth? Or are there some types that it won't take effect on like synthetic fabric such as rayon, spandex and polyesters.
RE: The Trivia Thread - Shintetsu - 11-20-2009
Since rubbing alcohol has more alcohol in it than cheap vodka, would that do as well?

Should work for pretty much anything. You can even do this instead of dry-cleaning if there are no stains to remove.
Shin, no idea. Go google-fu. I think rubbing alcohol is more expensive though. And you can't drink it.
