Groundhog
Really useful or really obvious but I figured this out all but myself.
Like, when I get out of the shower I dry myself of starting with hair, then working my way down. That way the just dried bits don't get wet again. I figured that out by myself when I was 12.
Or more usefully, the graphite bushes on a washing machine motor wear out over about 3 to 5 years. The bushes can be replaced easily for less than £20, instead of the whole motor at over £100 more.

I figured out that if you close your eyes when turning off a lightswitch, you don't notice the difference in the light level quite so much. Handy for those "do we really need the light on?" moments.

If I leave jobs for long enough someone else will do them. I've not really got the hang of this, have I?

I figured out something the other day. If I recall it was quite an eye opener. I just can’t for the life of me remember what it was. If I do I’ll pop back... (It was probably very underwhelming!)

I realised the correct way to crumble an oxo cube is by undoing the folded flaps (!) then squashing it before then opening the foil. My whole adult life wasted.

I figured out that it's easier to clean the shower cubicle before I get out of the shower rather than wait until I've got dressed.
