Everything in this video is 'fixable' : hold the damn tab while pouring water, install the bin liner properly, cellophane is not that difficult, etc.
But the thing that triggers me like nothing else is the semi-perforated 'easy opening' half-circle of that carton box. Those fail without fail and I am convinced it is constructed by satan himself, just to mess with your mind and propel your anger to new heights. Same as with those easy to tear strips, they never rip in one go and always fail at about 5% of the tear-action. May the gods of retribution take extra notice and effort to espouse their vindictive cruel ways upon these so called 'designers' who invent them. May the fleas of a thousand camels invade the crotch of the person. And may their arms be to short too scratch.
My wife and I have been joking about the perforation machine conspiracy for a couple of years now
Easy tear strips you should pull slightly down as well as across, I basically never have an issue with those.
Easy opening perforated boxes are a lie and I just open them like a normal one because tearing the glue designed to be permanent is a lot easier than opening the easy open section.
