There’s a new TikTok life hack that the internet is swearing by. It’s showing the correct way to fill an ice try. Who knew we were doing it wrong?

TikTok seems to be teaching us something new every day. Sometimes, it’s nothing useful that we’ll ever need to know. Other times, it can be quite useful! Here’s a TikTok life hack you might not have known about before: how to correctly make ice cubes. How could there be a right and wrong way to do it?

TikTok Life Hack Shows How To Fill An Ice Tray

This was something I have never thought of before. Typically, while I’m filling the ice tray I’m doing very little thinking. Fill the holes and then put it into the freezer to turn liquid into a solid. It’s as simple as that. Or is it? A new TikTok life hack is showing how we’ve been doing it wrong the entire time. Or is it just me?

So, what this viral video on TikTok shows is that you’re supposed to aim the water at the little flat spots while the tray is held at an angle. Then, you let the water trickle down from there. Sure, filling all the wholes accomplishes the job, but it’s not how we’re supposed to be doing it, I guess. It does make sense! The way I’ve always done it, I’ve been left with uneven cubes and it can make a mess. It sounds like this way will prevent all of that to give you equal ice distribution without making any mess. I could certainly use that.

Is it life changing? No, not really. Although, some people online are actually claiming it to be! Sure, it’s interesting and fascinating. However, life-changing is a bit far, no? People are thanking TikTok for teaching them so much even comparing to how much more they learn on the app than they did during their time in college. Again, let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves. Go to class! Check out the viral video shared by @lifehackerau on TikTok below.

Did you know about this? I guess the video has been floating around the internet for a while and this TikTok life hack has been out there and available and is just now making the rounds again. I bet you I’ll still do it wrong going forward. It’s just muscle memory at this point.

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.

All things we’ve come to learn and expect from the one and only Dave Hunter. Well, our one-and-only Dave Hunter. There is still that guy who wrote the travel book about I-75. Anyways, back to the important Dave!

  • Dave's Other Job Offer

    Can you imagine Dave in any other job? It would definitely be interesting! Well, it could soon become a reality. Dave received an offer from an erotic novelist to record the audio versions of her books and although he considered it, he doesn’t think his wife or the company would approve of him taking it as a side gig. I would buy that audio book!

  • Dave's Got Drugs In His Pockets

    Dave & Chuck the Freak talk about a guy who claimed the drugs in his pockets weren’t his and neither were the pants he was wearing. Dave then plays the song, ‘Drugs in my Pockets’ by The Monks but no one on the show has ever heard that song before. Turns out, the song isn’t bad! Well, at least as bad as Dave’s version of it. Check out BOTH versions above!

  • Dave's Plane Ass Incident

    Somehow, Dave always ends up in the most awkward situations. There’s one common denominator: himself. Dave was involved in an uncomfortable situation on an airplane over the weekend. He accidentally squirted hand sanitizer on a man’s ass that was standing in front of him and wanted to know if he handled the situation correctly.

  • Dave's Patio Furniture Update

    It’s the update we’ve been waiting for! Last year, Dave made a delivery mistake and sent outdoor patio furniture to people in Florida after meeting them one time. He shares an update after finding out the people kept the furniture for themselves and never said anything. Would you have done what Dave did? What would you have done in this situation?

  • Who Won't Stop Texting Dave?

    Technology has come a long way over the years. However, it still has a way to go. Dave & Chuck the Freak talk about an odd problem that Dave is experiencing involving his robot vacuum. It won’t stop texting him saying that it’s stuck, even when it’s not plugged in. Everyone says this is a problem only gadget man Dave would have to deal with.
