BLOG: Pre-Packaging
I'll be brief, cause your time is important to me.
Like I'm some Time-Life operator waiting to sell you some 70's collection of soft rock CD's.
Actually, some of those infomercials are pretty good, and the song selection is kind of rare.
But I promise you that IF you ordered all 120 cd's available from Time-Life, they would be easier to open then these (see 1st picture below) flippin' over-the-counter "reading glasses" we bought at Costco, or BJ's, or Sams. Doesn't matter, they are all the same. The stores, I mean.
Especially when it comes to that AIR TIGHT VACUM SEALED WITH HOT GLUE PLASTIC SHRINK WRAP most cheap stuff is packaged in.
You know exactly what I'm talking about. Something you've purchased with the G.D. invincible plastic cover that you can not get open to save your life.
Scissors? A Swiss Army Knife?
Think chain saw.
And this incredible shield is only used on cheap shit we all buy, mainly in bulk. I've never bought anything of real value with this type of Fort Knox security/Borg shield built right in. I know it's done to deter shoplifting and defer costs of packaging. But it really stinks. You could poke your eye out, Kid, with this sharp Spage Age plastic!
We should make our airplanes out of this stuff.
I finally got it open. Huzzah!
