Easy Opening Packages My Ass ( Fun Repeat from June 2010 )

I have had it with trying to open certain products that have been packaged with indestructible plastic.  Fucken BP should try some of this on the oil spill and I can almost guarantee that not one gallon of oil will escape.  It is impossible to open some of these products without lots of preparation.  Some of that larger crap you might  have bought in Costco or another of those warehouse clubs lead the parade.  Try opening  a simple package of razor blades, batteries, any small electrical appliance and so on.  It looks good on the shelf, it's easy to carry, it's completely immune to breakage, and it is almost impossible to open without receiving some sort of minor injury while doing so.
Cd's and DVDs are probably worse.  They are almost impossible to open without eventually jumping on the damn things.  Surely there has to be a better and easier way to package these products.  Years ago they were in a cardboard box which took a few seconds to open and then your threw away the box.  It was easy.  But NO, some asshole had to ruin a good thing.
      I have another one that really piss's me off.  Have you ever bought a cake, pie, cookies, or other bakery product in one of these wholesale clubs?????  It practically takes a sledge hammer to open a stinken cake. And whey you finally do get it open, it is completely busted up and looks like crap.  Again, what was wrong with that nice little white box for a cake, with a nice little piece of string wrapped around it ????  Nothing was wrong with it.
    
      We are going to far with all this high tech packaging. I do however want to thank one manufacturer for not changing.  Thank you Trojans, because if you ever did wrap your product in that impossible to open plastic, I probably would never be able to get laid again.  So thanks again.
