22 Things That'll Basically Save You From Yourself

For those with Steve Urkel-like grace and luck.

1. These heat-resistant oven-rack guards to prevent injuries from getting between you and your lasagna.

2. Some anti-slip pads that'll have you creeping like a graceful cat.

3. Cheap sunnies you'll wanna wear all summer and then it'll be nbd when you eventually sit on them in a month or two.

4. Some headlight-cleaning wipes so your brights will be bright enough to see that deer in the road...or your garage wall.

5. A flashy sippy cup that won't make having to drink from a sippy cup as an adult embarrassing.

6. A safety shut-off plug so your pursuit of straight hair won't burn down the house.

7. And a heat-resistant glove to don as you wield heat-styling tools.

8. This handy car documents organizer you can keep in your glove box in case of emergencies.

9. A two-sided hanging jewelry organizer with clear compartments and loops to keep strands from tangling.

10. A cutting guard so you won't slice off the tip of your finger. Again.

11. A makeup pouch that doubles as the perfect surface to spill powders and potions all over -- instead of your nice, clean bathroom counter.

12. Some very obvious knives that will catch your attention while rifling through a drawer AND come with safety sheathes.

13. And this knife sharpener that'll transform dangerous duds into wildly effective slicing tools.

14. A portable charger/flashlight perfect for fitting in your pocket en route to that sketchy cabin in the woods where a serial killer definitely isn't waiting for you and your friends.

15. A pair of no-skid socks because you and I both know trying to recreate that scene from Risky Business will only end in disaster.

16. A *legit* cord-keeper hair dryer so there's one less cord for you to trip over and break your neck.

17. A tough-as-nails travel mug that vacuum seals so you won't have to sue yourself over spilled hot coffee.

18. A 2-in-1 romper/dress that has the look of a frock with the windproof advantage of shorts.

19. Some pocket duct tape to help in times of need, like when the sole of your shoe falls off while camping.

20. Some bike bells that warn innocent bystanders of your impending arrival.

21. A wine tumbler with a drink-through lid that's a solid choice for picnics, tailgating, or even just sipping on your couch.

22. And an uncomplicated panda eye stick as a quick fix for cooling your peepers when you're dealing with stuff like allergies and too-long, fun nights.

Perhaps these'll keep you from waking up on a trash barge. Per. Haps.
