Ok, to cut a long story short, over the past month I've purchased a number of McVities biscuits of various types ranging from rich tea, to chocolate digestives.
However I find myself facing a crisis of confidence over the fact that i seem unable to correctly use the "Tear Here" feature that they apply to all of their products.

Each time i go to open a new packet and fail i feel even more inadequate and It's starting to affect my life. Im not eating properly, not going out as much, i get scared when i hear loud noises etc.

Is this problem unique to me or are there more out there suffering in silence?
 
I never tear where they say you should, as I find you end up exposing about 3+ biscuits and getting crumbs everywhere. Instead I just peel open the end part where it is folded over!
 
I always tear where it says but it never opens, the packet seems to be stuck further down :( GOD DAMN LIFE!
 
Fail at life!

Personally i find the tab on them quite useful, if you carefully peel it all the way around until the end comes off and eat the first 3-4 biscuits then you can put the end back down the packet backwards to stop the rest going stale.
 
Well I use a sharp knife, but the trick is making sure the open it so the choclate faces out. This way the biscuits will stay fresh for longer.

But somtimes if someone else open it the chocolate side is facing down, (or they are plain) in which case I won't eat the top biscuit. I'll treat it like a heel of bread, and always take the second biscuit. Then at the end of the pack I throw that 'sacrifical' biscuit away, cos it's too soft to eat.

Has the sheer quantity of biscuits resulted in your fingers becoming so frighteningly sausage-like that you're unable to grib the pull tab, and instead tear at it in an inconsoleable, fatty-esque rage?

Just a thought :D

Ant :cool:
 
I think you're getting a disease called asimnitus. If your penis starts changing colours, you need to report on OcUK first, and then go see a doctor ASAP
