Get this awful stuff when purchasing computer peripherals (mouse, memory sticks) toys, and things like scissors and knives. Followed the YT clips of how to open them without cutting yourself and tried without success. Who invented this stuff? Also you need a pair of scissors to open a clamshell pack with scissors. What happens if these are your only pair of scissors (in clamshell)? Surely there must be better stuff = safer and recyclable.

Opened a new power bank this morning and yep, cut myself on the edging.
 
... don't mention the war corned beef tin -- mans battle against those tins was done to death in a recent thread, the cost to the NHS.
(can't beat a decent hash irrespective of its economical virtues)
Ah! My electric can opener can open cans of corned beef if turned upside down.

Also the number of people with avocado hand. I take the stone with my hand and rest the avocado on a work top. If you need a knife to take out the stone, then your avocado isn't ripe.
