ELI5: Aloe Vera in refrigerator for sunburns. explainlikeimfive

What I want to know is: why do we keep Aloe Vera gels, sprays, lotions, etc. in the refrigerator? My family has always done it, my wife's family has always done it, friend's families, and so on.

But why? Every single time I've put that cold shit on my sunburnt flesh I've wished it wasn't so damn cold! Is there any sciencey reason we do this or is this just some conspiracy our ancestors laid out to fuck with us?

Please help!

Replacing Kenmore 260W Ice Maker with Maytag 185W appliancerepair

Hi there. I'm looking to install a Maytag 185W ice maker in my refrigerator to replace my Kenmore (Whirlpool) 260W ice maker. My co worker donated the unused Maytag and would love to use it. They are physically the same size, the only difference I see is the motor wattage.

Kenmore model number: W10300022 Maytag model number: W10190952

Thanks!

Going to a con next weekend. What can I bring with limited storage and no microwave? EatCheapAndHealthy

The hotel I'm going to has no refrigerator or microwave. I can bring a cooler and I can heat water with a coffee pot. Planning on bringing a small cooler and refilling with ice. They do have various food options there, but don't want to spend a bunch on that. Would rather bring things, but don't know the best things aside from ramen. Which I've done before, but trying to eat better.

I'm doing more of a Paleo diet right now, but know during this weekend I may not be able to stick to it as much as I want. Just want something that isn't ramen a few times a day and isn't spending tons at the hotel.

What fruit and veg will hold up over a couple days between two people in a cooler? Any recipes that just need hot water?

Sorry if this has been posted before or doesn't belong here. Thought I'd ask!

[Help] [Fluff] WDOAT. Weirdest dog of all time. dogs

Hi, I have a hound mix named Cooper. He is very unwell behaved to the point of the dog actually outsmarting us at times but proving that he is untrainable even. My family started at the dog maybe having mental retardation as a joke then moved onto to all of looking up if it's possible or not within dogs because it got so prominent in our lives. He does things that would make you believe this. Some examples are actually preferring to use the bathroom in the house almost. Or how he will only try to lick your mouth, which is gross to only some people, understandably, but we always see him licking his genitalia. Or things just go to the window and watch outside. I've had a couple of glass pipes break because he jumps onto the dresser next to my bed. It turned into us believing something was wrong. But this turned to believing that we saw the dog as a genius dog, with the ability to reason. He turned to ruining something in our house every single day. And not multiple things just one. It's been months now. This turned to kenneling, but he would rip apart his bed would for him. Then we when couldn't include anything in the kennel and he broke the metal change. So we put the a new kennel in a narrow hallway just the size of the length of the kennel, which turned out being smashed so many times, with just enough force each time so it doesn't tip over, like driving a car, that to inches out of the hallway, and he can break it once again. It's turned into a serious problem by now. But he turned to reasoning when he is now opening doors. And it got weird once the doors are now turning closed so he doesn't get caught. Instead of opening the fridge, he opens the freezer, on a vertical refrigerator. He plays mine games on us, like stealing out food by staring off into the distance until we look to where his and he snipes a piece of pizza once we look away. He's honestly incredible, but awful at the same time. He's actually smarter than us. Do you have any advice? Please? Our house has been destroyed and he actually harms himself at times, like eating a cd case, or trying to jump through a window because he saw an animal, while breaking the glass on his face. Or other people because, well, he attacks anyone who comes over, ask my friend Joe, his arm has a footlong slash. He's very efficient and we know he loves us, though, making it worth keeping him. He loves cuddling and has never bitten any of us. It's odd how much he loves us at times. He feels sorrow by doing things like crawling to a corner, every single day when we watch in, or understanding when we are talking about him. Even in a neutral way, he knows. I love Cooper, but I really don't understand what to do. Thanks for reading this if you did.

Getting a tray out of the refrigerator appliancerepair

I am living in a rental house with a fridge of which I have no manual and don't know the brand of. I want to unmount the plastic tray in the door, but it seems that it's physically impossible. Here's some images for context:

(imgur doesn't work for me anymore)

It is clear to me that it must be possible because somehow it got in there. However I tried with a medium amount of force in several ways, but I fear to break the plastic. The little vertical ledge is solid and it retract or so, and afaik both sides are equal. The last picture shows what happens when I try to raise it up and out.

I discovered a gap on one of the sides of it. If there was a second gap on this side. Sadly because there is no second gap, I can't lift it all up. When I lift it up, the wedge is still blocked by the lower extrusions.

Here is a video of me trying the up and out method:

If anyone has any ideas on what's the proper technique for this without risking breaking it, I would wholeheartedly welcome it.

Thank you in advance,

CX
