Hacking daily existence, we all participate knowingly and reflexively. Here are some of my daily hacks, you have them. I'll start with a coffee and chime in with cycling hacks later.

Coffee shops routinely ask if you want room for cream. Sure, charge me for a large but only give me a medium that's what I want?????. Try this, ask for a double cup and no room. Remove the second cup and pour the amount of cream into this cup you normally use for that large coffee. From the other cup pour hot coffee into the cream than sip until you can pour in the remainder. Now use the first cup as you sleeve.
