Things with lids that break if you open them too many times

If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
Dammit cheese container. You contain twenty-four slices of cheese within you. You should at least be able to open twenty-four times without falling off.

    Happens to me with plastic containers with those packets of washing liquid in, although that's more a question of "badly designed lid where you can't tell which side you're supposed to open it from, so you pick the wrong one and pull it off."

    I broke the minced garlic's lid too. Not sure how.

    DUDE. I hate this so much.

    Or like when you're opening a can of soup and you're pulling the tab and it's brimming with liquid so you're being extra careful but oh no the last little iota of metal is still clinging and you wince from the tension and start leaning away and then it flings off and the soup splatters you all over anyway even though you were so careful.

    yeah personal experience

    Or when you have a can opener but you can't quite cut that last bit of metal off.

    But that was a while ago.

    Poot dispenser here
    I guess that I'd just get multiple pieces of cheese, then.

    Still, that sounds like quite a problem.

    But I only need one slice of cheese at a time.
  • RocketDudeRocketDude

    How big is each slice, anyways? And what do you need the slices for?

    They are about the size of a slice of bread.

    I need them to put on bread to eat.

    Huh, the biggest slices I've seen are Kraft Singles.

    I think these ones are Coon cheese.

    ...That happens to other people? I always thought it was just me being careless and/or needlessly rough with the containers.

    It happens too much to me :/

    One foot in front of the other, every day.
    I like Coon cheese.

    I like the fact that we have a brand of cheese called "Coon" even more.

    Makes me think of Coonskin caps.

    We are so racially insensitive.

    How did that even happen in the first place? xD It's like if you could get "Nigger fries" in the USA.

    ...That's a naughty word over there, isn't it?

    I do not even know, but it amuses me.

    It's pretty much 'nigger' here. But less edgy.

    ...Oh.

    Why?

    Oh, I was referring to the fact that you have a racist term that isn't really reviled like we do in the US, but I am American, so...

    Oh.

    Well, I don't think most Australians these days really give a shit about racist terms, but I could be mistaken.
  • captainbrasscaptainbrass
    You know, the fact that there's a brand of cheese called that suggests that somewhere out there is a Mr and Mrs Coon and family whose ancestor originally owned the cheese company. Imagine being stuck with that as a family name.
