    Default Why Won't You Open?!

    Everything. <b>EVERYTHING</b>; is user proof these days.

    Now, it may just be my lack of defined muscle tissue, but it seems like every bottle, every package, every program is working against me.

    I spent nearly 7 minutes trying to open the top of one of those fancy sport drinks. To no avail! I felt as though my inyards would <a href="
    http://eyesonff.com/forums/showthread.php?t=58069">disembark from my body</a>.

    This drink is not the only item protesting my consumption.

    Computer programs simply fail me, closing everytime I try to open them or pooping out an error message in the midst of a project I'm working on, rendering all work obsolete.

    Advil bottles are more likely to sprout legs and do a jig rather than give up their tastey sedatives enclosed.

    Pickle jars must literally have their edges beaten in with a knife before they budge even an iota.

    Like really? Stupid son of a Stupid. >=( It's time someone smack these products into submission. Back into the kitchen where they belong!

    Boldly go.

    HI ASHLEEEY. <3

    Have you ever had those Dole juices? Those are the bloody devil. Sometimes I can open them, but usually me&roomie have to call upon a specially trained team of juice opening males we have on call 24/7.

    I actually have developed an attempted-to-open-juice callus on my finger.

    Another thing! Why does everything come in like inch thick plastic now? I recently got new headphones, and it took the jaws of freaking life to get them open.

    Clearly the work of the Space Devil.

    I find a strange pattern arising at how hard pasta sauce jars are to open. Definitely requires feats of immense wrist strength. Sometimes I can't even open packets which have those 'tear here' lines on them. I think I'm becoming an invalid

    Those plastic things are evil, and if you aren't careful they'll cut you back. I hate plastic things.

    Sports drinks give me a hard time sometimes. That's when I get out a steak knife and saw off the top of the bottle.

    Apparently i'm the bottle opener master. Everyone gives me their bottles to open and I can usually do it. I suppose I have strong hand/grip muscles. That'll help in other places too...

    Everytime I try to open those plastic packages things I cut myself or stab myself. The packaging is more durable than any product that has ever been contained by that loathsome stuff.

    I can also tell whenever we're having pizza or spaghetti because you can hear the sauce jar being wailed on the floor to make it openable .

    Stupid packaging.
    I disable signatures. Killjoy.
