    I don’t have a problem with ring pulls on cans. I have problems with those shitty plastic ones found on Asian sauce bottles.

    I end up using a can opener, axe and angle grinder

    BECAUSE THE STUPID PULL TAB COMES OFF!

    I must have weird anatomy or something because I have never found these even slightly difficult to open. Surely the real problem is wet/oily hands trying to grip smooth metal twist caps welded onto smooth glass jars.

    Pry it up slightly and get an actual finger under it before pulling. Put your thumb in the centre of the lid for leverage.

    What are your fingers made of, mashed potato?

    I use my fingers like a normal person. The only problem I have with these is the occasional time when the tab shears off completely as you flip it up and you’re left contemplating whether to stab something into the groove or dig out the can opener…

    I keep my fingernails short, so if I can’t lift the tab within a few seconds, it’s spoon time, baby!

    Usually a can opener, after the tabs on the woolies brand cans fall off. Thanks, duopoly!
