What I do if the tab snaps before I can open the can is get a knife and just stab at the can. I can then frantically suck at the hole like a sugar craving leech.

This is the kind of content I came to Lemmy to see. /r/mildlyinfuriating turned into "My ex killed my dog and burned my house down"

Manufacturing failure modes is perhaps a weird fascination of mine. How does the industry fail for 1/1000 products sometimes...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Me too! I try to take a picture of some of the better ones I run into. Some that come to mind are a fully sealed individual size bag of chips that only had air in it, and an individually wrapped protein cookie that had two cookies jammed in it. Life evens out.

Whenever this happens I just jam my cock in there and whatever happens happens

Whoever taught this can how to be a can failed miserably

I recognize that plant from IKEA.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Isn't it weird that we live in a world with fake plants that are mass produced to the degree that many of us recognize them in a photo, that the table has fake distressed wood, that the floor is fake wooden paneling?

So many things have become attainable because of mass production, but isn't it weird that we live in a world where these things exist? Where you can walk into somebody's home in s different country, on a different continent, and go "yeah, i have the same thing at home?"

It is crazy! I moved to a completely different country to be with my wife, and I noticed one time that her mom had the exact same long-toothed comb that my mom had while growing up. A large and rectangular blue one with white tips and square protruding textures along the side. I could have sworn it even had broken teeth in the same places. It blew my mind.

I believe it was this one, but without a handle: https://lemmy.ca/pictrs/image/77e0d3ee-b1da-4a49-a217-174868cf6f5e.png

Glad I stopped drinking soda years ago cause that's just the worst. Now I mainly worry about getting water bottles with caps that don't break the seal with that little plastic ring.

Oh God this drives me mental all the time

When this happens I just push it in with my finger and cut myself on the can!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I usually just push through with my finger, but I have to say, I love your style.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Then you try and push it the rest of the way through with your finger and slice your whole fucking hand open, immediately realising what a stupid decision that was 😅
