kitchen drawer knobs are the perfect distance from the drawer to open a bottle.

I don't use this method often, only when I can't find one of my 4 bottle openers.

I use an old cutting board when I can not find an opener. Just put the cap on the edge and karate chop it.

Ok this thread is not about poor man bottle opening strategies.


It's about how somebody can design and machine a very nice product for a specific purpose, but neglects to care if it works for that purpose.

obviously you haven't been stuck with an unopened bottle when you really wanted a beer.

Mangler had an accident on the way home from the liquor store. He was run off the road and crashed into a woman's clinic. It was one giant Pabst smear.

Wait, how exactly are you using this? Are you using the correct side? The correct direction?

My friend brought be back a keychain bottle opener from arizona, it's super nice and has a little spinning kokopelli on it. Doesn't work, won't grip the bottle cap. How the eff does somebody make and sell a bottle opener that doesn't open bottles.


Reminds me, my mom bought my brother a wall hanging one from Pottery Barn a few years back. Solid brass or something, looked like this one:




didn't work. You could open the bottle only if you held the bottle horizontal to it, but as I experienced at a party, you spray beer all over everyone within range.


wtf?


clearly we have different definitions of "didn't work".

I was trying to be all LEET and COOL. I forgot the tower is indeed called...
