If people could just open the top of the carton like we used to as kids, then they wouldn't need to use all that plastic to make the cap and the inner seal.
Right?



I hate all these new products that are coming out that are disposable. Disposable toilet bowl brushes, disposable mops, disposable dust rags. So much waste. If you have a good toilet brush use it. You shouldn't have to buy something over and over again. One toilet brush is plenty. Get a hardy mop, it'll last you forever. Get an old shirt and use it as a rag.

Same with vacuum cleaner bags. Get a vacuum that doesn't need a new bag when it's full. Get a freakin' bagless vacuum cleaner.

A pet peeve involving my own idiocy: I hate it when I prepare for coffee -- measure and grind the beans, place filter in basket, turn on warmer, pour water, put ground beans in filtered basket, insert basket into slot in brewer, then walk away...without turning coffee maker ON!!

I do this twice a week at mimimum.

I did this once with a crockpot meal. Came home and it was pretty gross.
