Thread: Everyday items designed by a cnut

Number One:

The useless fcuking plastic ringpull on the top of a bottle of cooking oil.

Every fcuking one I've tried snaps before opening.

I'm going to enjoy this thread.

Those pre-perforated envelopes that the bank sends - the tear-off strips never quite work and you end up ripping the letter.

I believe we do have a car door expert on this forum.

Indeed. He should be glad it's just static

Cutlery with the tensile strength of tin foil. i.e trying to get a scoop of ice cream and having the sodding spoon bend double.

Tissues the size of a postage stamp

Child-proof caps.

Condoms

btw. the wife is expecting

fecking milk cartons!

cigarettes

Thai wash basin plugs?

Maybe its just me but I've never found one that could hold water in the basin. They all seem to leak beofe I finish shaving.

Bastard!

crappy light bulb sockets that rust away to buggery within six months of installing them, making it impossible to unscrew a bulb that needs changing.

trying to sort shit out on the phone,and talk to an operator and not a waste of fucking time pushing one stupid number after another to get to talk to someone

Outsourced call centres

Thai electric wiring. It comes to something when you know to unplug the washing machine before taking clothes out, so you don't get an electric shock, or to unplug 2 items before plugging in another so you don't fuse the whole house.

those tin seals on thai whiskey bottles, can never twist them off without impaling myself on tin foil

good thread BTW

My missus cannot open milk cartons or any carton.

For the love of trying I have showed her how to do it. If i'm not there she just cuts the damn thing open with a knife.

back on topic.

Metal chopsticks - how is one meant to eat oily food with them?>

Toilet Roll..... The glued down bit at the start... Uncalled for.

Little tubes of superglue, that never can be opened a second time.

You alway have to buy a new one.

Plastic CD jewel boxes (they seem to break way too easily when dropped).

And pretty much anything designed in China.

Fold up spoons you get with yogurt... end up sucking the stuff outa the carton. Shit everywhere.

E. G.

Those pissy little single-ply, tiny, servettes you get at restaurants. No good for wiping up a single drop of anything.

keep the superglue in the fridge it lasts longer
