      If you live in an apartment, you can make your neighbors love you by making garum, an ancient Roman fish sauce, in a jar, indoors, in your apartment!

      https://www.zeldaspeedruns.com/oot/tech/bottle-duplication

      Need more bottles.

      Break game to acquire more bottles.

      I don’t follow the OoT speedrunning community much, but I am fairly sure that it is possible to overwrite … almost all usable items in your inventory with bottles, though some methods to do this basically make the game unstable.

      If there isn’t already such a category, I think there should be an Oops! All Bottles! category, lol.

      I remember being able to pull off at least one of these methods back in 1999 or 2000, on an N64… at least one of these methods was circulating on GameFAQs.

      IIRC, you can actually deflect certain range attacks, like Ganondorf’s energy ball things… by precisely timing an empty bottle swing.

      A friend posted this meme on Facebook and my thoughts immediately went to Ocarina of Time. Was Miyamoto also a jar collector? How many jar-obcessed children did this game create?!

      You know what grinds my gears? I give someone a jar of my homemade jam, or of honey from my bees, in one of my GOOD jars, and I never see that jar again. One “friend” said she had some jars, did I want them? Yes please! Aaaand they were weird tall skinny jars or tiny sample size jars, all with the labels still on. Straight in the recycling bin. I should have kept them and given her a tiny sample jar of honey instead of the normal pound.

      Rant over.

    “Just look at all these pens and ink! I could write so many things: poetry, history, my deepest secrets, a book that changes the world!”

    “So, what are you currently writing?”

    “Well, nothing…”

      To real. Pretty good chance that when I do want to write something (e.g. birthday cards), my pen is dried up and it’s a whole thing to make it write well again …

    I’m now using clean peanut butter jars as mini green houses for pots, to help seeds sprout. See! I need to save every single one!

    There’s a local store, where you can bring your glass jars and they fill you up with all kinds of dry foods. Since I’ve started buying there, I’ll look in normal stores specifically for products that come in decent-looking jars. 🙃

    Your day will come and it will all be worth it. My day came when the mice arrived. My wife, the one who holds me back, let me loose. Glass jars to the moon! Mice had no chance! I am king again. Brrruhhshahhahaahaha! Cackle cackle evil victory laugh.

    I don’t have space for empty jar storage. Or full jar storage. I wish I did though. I barely have room for dishes. Jars are cool.

      Same. Our agreement is that she can keep glass containers, and I can keep old electronics. We keep each other in check lol
