WTF it won't open?, haha, what about youu? Options

[LOWinSKANK]

don'tt you hate it, when you go to open something, like a jar or a simple bottle of green tea and IT WON'T OPEN!?
wah it's impossible

;[ what do you do?


i got my sister to open it, though.
=D

[babecakes]

this reminds me of this morning, my mom couldn't open a jar of antipasto. so in the end, she ended up stabbing a hole in the lid and pouring it out, harharhar. and i usually can't open simple things like bottled water or pop cans because i don't want to ruin my nails. i always have to get someone to open it for me :(.

[revka]

use rubber gloves

[Dianavontease]

I bite on the lid.

[Dianavontease]

Yeah i know Im really odd.

My teef is strong as hell though.

[Insurmountable]

I beat it against a counter thinking the force is going to help O_o

then if it doesn't I go give it to my dad to open it XD

[lojay]

Ahh, I hate that. I always complain about how it won't open after trying to open it for like five minutes, and then the second I complain about it to someone, I continue to turn it and it slides open. I'm just like are you serious?!

[RAWRstephishere]

I couldnt get this bag of macaroni open, so I stabbed it with a knife, that seemed to work.

[karmakiller]

At lunch, Gardettos are the hardest thing to open. I'm careful now, because one of my friends pulled really hard and the chips went flying everywhere.

[angelrevelation]

I get a damp washcloth and try to open it again with it. The cloth creates a better grip?

[arcanum]

^But doesn't it slip easier, if its damp/wet?

Yes, I haate that. Usually, if its hurting my hand, I'll get a towel or something.

[dustbunny]

just use a rubberband..

[LOWinSKANK]

i don'tt always have a rubberband handy. ;[[ haha.

[dustbunny]

then use a thick cloth; anything that reduces the amount of friction between your hand and the jar lid

[angelrevelation]

^But doesn't it slip easier, if its damp/wet?

It never does for me Our kitchen cloths are like terry, so the little threads don't slip. They're actually more slippery when they're dry.

[synthase]

I always use a rubber band. I just rap it around the container top and twist it off! YAY some PP&J for me! But at times, my method fails and I just leave the container there..all alone, unopened.

Oh okay, I know what you're talking about.

We used to have this easy-grip rubber.. thing. idk what happened to it though.

[stephinika]

Haha, I know what you mean. I usually end up getting someone else to do it if I can't.

[Sandraaa]

Oui!!!!!! I tried opening a sardine can but the opening thingy got broken instead. I poked and poked but nothing happened. Anyway, my sister opened it for me.

[karmakiller]

I used to hate it when we got that cans with the little tab on them (so you don't have to use a can opener) and the tab would break off. Or if that happens to a soda can. I get frustrated and tell someone else to do it.

[Jennifer]

I have the worst trouble trying to get open bottled water
Then it really starts to hurt my hands.. so I try use a cloth for better grip but it only makes it worse.. I usually can get someone else to do it, though

[1angel3]

I bite on the lid.

Me too and then my teeth starts to hurt. I usually stick the jar or whatever under my shirt and try to open it again. I also get a butter knife and bang on the edges of the lid <--- that always work. Comes right off.

when that happens, we stab it...
note: i wouldn't try it if i were you.

[*jeanna*]

i run it under hot water or hit it to death

[Note]

I feel special whenever i open a jar. It's like "Praise me ~ I rock."

[IVIike]

I hate it when i go to open a bag of chips and i rip open the whole side of the bag
