Services OK but more talking about goods.

This was inspired by my lifelong use of GooGone, which always gets sticker residue off when other products are just annoying.

What is it best at?

It's especially great at incinerating noisy crickets in the basement of the shithole house you and your roommate rented - particularly when their noise wakes you at 3AM. BIC lighters, cans of WD-40 and it was so on.

Surprised we didn't burn it to the ground. It's the only shit hole of my college days that is still standing, and ironically the one that needed bulldozing the most. Students still rent it.

They don't build 'em like the used to, eh?

WWII temp housing built with scarce materials in 1942 - cheapest of the cheap then, and those materials are apparently more resilient than what we use today. They re-framed the roof (no gutters on it 42 years ago), added eaves and the two covered porches and turned it into a single unit (was a duplex back in the day). Roomie and I and the tenants in the other half all called it the Shitplex. I moved into the Taj Mahole the following year - it was a step up.
