Can Opener Update
August 19, 2008I’m afraid of my can-opener
July 9, 2008My mom bought me one of those can-openers that sits on the can itself and walks its way around the rim of the can. This leaves you with your hands free and a can that’s not sharp enough to cut you. For some reason though, the opener doesn’t stop once it gets around the can. It just keeps walking and walking and eventually I have to grab it and forcefully punch the button several times to make it stop, then pry the top of the can off it. It’s giving me stress.
I have another can-opener, but I somehow feel that using it would be disloyal to my mom. I keep forcing myself to use the new gizmo, even though it seriously limits my enjoyment of a can of beans.
I may need help.
