I don't mean what you use to chop down your feces, but an object that you realized only your family has and people would raise their eyebrows at. Best if said object has a sole purpose.

We had an "automobile hairdryer." On school mornings after I took a shower and was being driven to school, I would lean my head up towards the dashboard and have the A/C blowing full blast to finish drying my hair. I would do this every morning in elementary school. Probably not very safe now that I think back on it.

I used to do a very similar thing on my way to work. I got out of the shower, combed my hair back and drove to work with the heat cranked to max and the air duct pointed directly at my face. When I arrived I just ruffled my hair with my hand and had a perfect and indestructible style for the day. I never managed to get a good result with an actual hairdrier lol

I used to use a 500 cc hairdryer. My motorcycle.

My school bus driver would yell at me to get back to my seat

Why wouldn't that be safe? I'm OOTL.

I'm just imagining if we hit a bump or got in a wreck my neck would bear the brunt of impact. Or at least I might hit my head against the dash.

Oh yeah. Here I was imagining your hair lighting on fire or something.
