Do you have any interesting tricks you employ for outdoor life? For me i have a matchbox, put some cotton inside it to keep the matchsticks from moving around, then wrapping it with some waxed wire. It doesn't make a lot of noise while in the backpack and has some tinder for you to use when you wanna make a campfire

A film canister full of dryer lint balls covered in Vaseline is the best firestarter and it costs next to nothing to refill after each trip.

A long-handled Ti spoon makes eating out of Mountain House or MRE bags 200% nicer, and they're all of $10.

On cold nights throw either a handwarmer, or a Nalgene full of hot water at the foot of your sleeping bag. Suddenly the bag feels 20deg warmer.

Plastic... Wouldnt it be better to use a egg carton?

Use a shoe brush to get snow off your clothes and gear before entering your tent.

Use a dry bag to store water in your camp. Its much better than drinking condom water.

Yep the container doesn't matter at all. I just use film canisters because they're what I had laying around.

Just fill up whatever container with your coated lint balls and fish out 2-3 whenever you're ready to start a fire. They'll burn pretty hot for about 2 mins which is plenty of time to get your fire started up.

Take 3 matches from a Match box. Place two ones diagonally so they touch. Lay another match onto this one. Light the 3 touching match heads and the match sticking out will resemble an erect penis. This shape:

Buy one of these. They weigh practically nothing and make it so you can get damp wood to light within seconds, and save you so much time and tinder. Plus, since it extends to about 12 inches, you can have your face much further away from the fire so you don't have to worry about flare-ups or ash/smoke getting in your eyes and lungs. It's seriously one of my favorite pieces of gear.

Personally, I put a Bic lighter profoundly deep in my ass. Like this I always have something dry to make fire. Simple
Ironically I'm not gay

heat transfers very poorly between multiple sections of metal, same principle as to why you can cook for hours without heating up the handle of the pot

You don't stick the tube into the actual fire. Usually the end of it is about 4-6 inches from the flame at a bare minimum. That, and you use it for about 10-20 seconds at most, so the thing doesn't even have time to heat up in the first place.
