    Default I considered ending it all...

    It was horrible, I bought 10 bottles of Stella Artois this afternoon with the intent to drink them. After letting them chill in fridge while passing the time smoking homies like they was drugs in GTA: San Andreas, I went to fetch one from the fridge. To my horror I realised my lack of bottle opener...sufficed to say I panicked...this was my idea of hell on earth. I frantically looked for a way to open the bottle, too scared to try with my teeth and not adept enough to do it on the kitchen counter I broke in to a cold sweat. And then there on my desk lay my salvation, a pair of scissors. Don't ask how but I managed to pry it open with my trusty trimmers.

    So anyone got any other bright ideas of how to pry open a beer bottle minus the vital tools?

    Per chance, would it happen to be a twist top?

    Or just go to a nearby store and grab a bottle opener for $.50.

    You clearly haven't grasped the instant panic that a crisis like this produces, thanks for the suggestions but thankfully I'm not that stupid and going out at 10pm to find a bottle opener is not an easy task.

    I've never been without the "vital tools." Everytime I go to open a beer (rarely) every guy around me reaches into his pocket and opens it for me.

    My friend has mastered the knack of opening two bottles by hooking both caps onto each other and pulling hard.
    And mastered the art of table opening.

    Well, I say mastered, on a good day theres half the drink left in the bottle after she's finished opening it. Needless to say someone is always present with a bottle opener.

    That's cause they all want you drunk and easy, Mandee.
    When I got a PS2 I didn't have a memory card, so I was all "" Cause I couldn't play FFX, and it was christmas time, and there was a national memory card fammine so I had to wait like a week to play. But I had Vice City borrowed so I got to run around killing in that for awhile.

    I see a lot of my friends using a lighter to open bottles but I can't seem to get the trick down. I have a p-38 (army issue can opener ) that I can use.

    That's the classiest way to open beer.

    Twist tops are teh kewl.

    Seriously, though, when I drink beer it's usually the twist top bottles. But I guess I'm just a low class, blue collar beer drinker because I've never even heard of Stella Artois. :shame:

    i cut my hand up trying to open a bottle with a lighter, but it's possible if you know what you are doing. opening it on a counter is doable but can damage the counter.

    I can do the lighter trick, but I need a flat sided lighter not rounded.

    But for a Stella Artois I'd use my teeth if I had to
