Salad Spinner

We got a salad spinner for Christmas and I was pretty sure this thing was useless. Neither of us much like salads. So I immediately suggested giving it to Goodwill.
Austin: Nah. I'm pretty sure Alton Brown said that they have a lot of uses.
I was pretty sure Alton Brown had called them a unitasker and a waste of space. But time passed. 

I looked up a couple of articles on the Internet about the uses for a salad spinner: salad spinning, of course. Berries, veggies and pasta can also be spun (though I wouldn't recommend angel hair, as that would go through the holes). And . . .
Me: The article said you can use it to dry your bathing suit after swimming.
Austin made several jokes about that and the value of drying your bathing suit.
Me: Can I get rid of the salad spinner [still in the box] now?
Austin: Yeah, you can get rid of it.
