Turn the bottle 90 degrees?
It gets in the way anyway. And the amount of times I was pouring myself a drink and the cap snapped shut spilling shit everywhere is too damn high.
And when you try to screw it back on it just doesn't fit properly.
But anyway instead of endlessly complaining about it I just twist it off because I am not a baby.
You must have issues my dude
Everybody has issues, what's yours?
Turning the cap's hinge on a milk carton every time you open it is not really convenient (you can't turn the carton, it's not round as a bottle)
That photo panel is the bottle rotated 90 degrees.
First world problems
People that can't use their brain should not be our baseline for making stuff.
Man have I got bad news for you. Almost everything uses idiots as the baseline for making stuff. They're so numerous. Probably because everyone's an idiot about something.
I know. It's still sad this is encouraged, but there is little incentive to move in the opposite direction. Better to have a lot of braindead customers I guess.
Me still ripping those things completely off defeating thier purpose. Of course I try to drink can as much as possible. Except most stores refuse to stock anything but bottled it's frustrating.
This is why I'm glad I live in the US
Edit: this was mostly a joke. I think some of you took this personally
I’m happy such a trivial thing is what’s keeping you there.
Yes because if you had tethered bottle caps that would be your biggest issue.
I can choose to have tethered bottle caps or untethered bottle caps. Can you say the same?
Is THAT your litmus for freedom?! In some states women can't choose to have an abortion. And in all of the states people have to choose between going to the doctor or paying rent that month... But goddamnit, at least they don't have to deal with those pesky tethered bottle caps!
This was not an an attempt to start a huge debate. I'm just glad I don't have to deal with that here.
Its not that I think the US is better. For instance, I think we could use some privacy and consumer rights.
I'd rather deal with a poorly designed bottle cap than half the shit we have to deal with here in the US. There's a reason you're getting down voted. What you said is so narrow sighted that it's not even funny.
We have MUCH larger issues we have to deal with than a stupid bottle cap. "Glad I don't have to deal with that here" is showing a willingness to ignore everything else.
it's easy.. instead of kicking off the bottle cap, just shoot it off!
Man we don't even have healthcare or widespread public transit. Abortion isn't even legal everywhere anymore.
Our country is rapidly falling apart before our eyes. Just stop man.
So can we. It's easy to pull it off. Gotta remember to find solutions, not problems.
i don't have to choose to sacrifice my life to survive!
Yes
Even with my old ass body of a guy who barely exercises, I still have the strength to twist off the tiny retaining plastic bit.
As show in OPs video, yes. But I usually avoid plastic bottles.
On the other hand, I'm glad these are the issues we're combatting against, instead of a corrupt bipartisan government.
