Some bags suck to open. Just don't go chopping across the top like Edward Scissorhands putting plastic shards in my chips. Ya heard.

It’s not that we are getting old and weak (we are), it’s this modern world.
That’s annoying? You give a fuck about that?Quote:

My wife does the scissors thing, but only just the little corner at the top. I suppose it's big enough for her to reach in with her little hands but not my big meat paws, so I tip the whole top off
A lot of meat and fish now comes sealed with zero air space, which is great for quality but tough to open without cutting into the food.
The worst is when a package is supposedly designed to be easy to open--like the Coscto smoked salmon I opened yesterday--but the execution failed. So you spend time trying to open it the "easy" way and getting frustrated instead of just getting a scissors, saw or axe.
Cereal still not coming in ziplock bags. Why is Big Cereal ignoring this obvious improvement?!Quote:

I go back to Raide to re-order the part and of course they are out of stock again. Now I have to wait for them to have enough interest for them to do another run.
Most of the "cheap" cereal that *just* comes in a bag with no box has zip closures. Reward those companies. :DQuote:

People that eat chips out of the bag with their hands are annoying. Pour some in a bowl. The exception is driving by yourself, go for it. Keep your gross fingers out of the bag.Quote:

Montucky must be too busy to let you know that is a deliberate conspiracy by BIG CEREAL to make the cereal to go stale as soon as possible.Quote:

I almost never buy the "fresh" fish in styrofoam trays wrapped in saran wrap. Maybe if you live someplace where you can buy fish that's right off the boat, but otherwise, stick to the excessively packaged frozen stuff.Quote:

Okay, I think this belongs in the “I love my wife, but…” thread.Quote:

My better half is going to go back to college to make a career change. Wildlife bio, she know's what she's getting into as I'm in a related field and some of our closest friends are biologists.
She told her mom over the phone last night and her mom's response was a confused "why?" followed by "you'll have to clean toilets" WTAF? and then no other discussion about it. WTF?
This was about an hour after my wife told me she's not looking forward to telling her coworkers because she doesn't want to deal with their smart ass comments about her going to school, to which I said fuck that, cut those petty fucks out of your life then if they don't offer you support.
Granted I'm sure her mom will come around but god damn, not the reaction my wife needed to hear.
Big O Tires annoys me.
Their franchises seem to be hit or miss. The one I go to here in Boise is great, but then there is another one in Boise that isn't very well run.Quote:

I went to some kind of house party years ago and some psycho cut the chip bag right across the middle. Half the chips on one side. Half on the other. And then laid on the counter. It was maybe a presentation thing? It looked like stale chips to me.Quote:

And all these vac sealed meat packages I open with a sharp knife on a cutting board, usually the one I just used for veggies, etc. Lay it flat and trim the sealed edges off right next to the meat. Which isn’t interesting… you guys are pretty much making a competitive sport out of “pick a position and be a dick about it.”
Buttah--you do realize that you're the only one who actually takes this thread seriously, don't you? I can't imagine what it must be like to go through life with no sense of humor.Quote:
