Is this that rubbery tape that sticks and seems to melt into itself? I
used half the roll on a hose leak, which kept right on leaking. I
returned the unused stuff to Walmart.

If you're talking about something else, never mind.

I used the Gorilla equivalent of Flex Seal tape to repair a leaky rain
gutter. It is holding surprisingly well. Good thing too, since I can't
get any local gutter shops to even respond to my calls/emails, let
alone actually come out for an estimate.

I've recently become aware of the advantages of hot glue. The bar that
holds the little jars on one shelf in my refrigerator door suddenly
became too short to fit into the sockets. No idea how that happened,
but the solution was pretty easy. Especially since we've acquired a
lifetime supply of glue sticks at yard sales.

I really miss yard sales. It used to be that I'd think "I need a _____"
and I'd find one the following Saturday. We called it the Psychic
Shopping Network. I was really pissed when I had to actually buy a NEW
turkey roaster.

And don't get me started about the goddam new Samsung gas stove that
needed four repair visits to fix the same burner. Sheer luck that it
happened within the warranty period, Samsung crap usually fails just a
month or so after the warranty expires. Clearly somebody at the factory
needs to be fired.

We have a Samsung washing machine that has been working great for ~1.5
years. Should I be worried? ;-)

Sucker shouldn't even be broken in yet. Shouldn't. I think my friend's
front-loader started leaking within two years.
