I went to the liquor store last night and these "mountain dew game fuel" beverages were on sale, so I bought a few. I just went to open one and they didn't have the normal soda can tabs. They had these weird plastic things. I was like "what the fuck do I do with this?" I got it open partially but it looks weird and confusing and now I'm all frustrated by it.
Any millennials able to help me out and explain how to operate this dumb newfangled sorcery nonsense? --- Place-holder sig because new phone and old sigs not saved :/ ... Copied to Clipboard!

Just shotgun it. Nah. It's for mixing with vodka. It just kinda drips out of the can... unless I squeeze it. This is adequate though. Apparently the thing is meant to re-seal? I actually like that. It's better than my previous method of flatness prevention which was to put foil over the top of the can >_> I think i can manage to functionally consume it without having to activate my "I've fallen and I can't get up" emergency device thing. --- Place-holder sig because new phone and old sigs not saved :/ ...

It's a black plastic thing like that but a different shape. Also resealable. Just different design but essentially that yeah. --- Place-holder sig because new phone and old sigs not saved :/ ...

I don't really like them, because the actual opening where the drink comes out of is like a third of the normal drink hole of a can. It makes for a slower drinking experience.
I'd just pry the plastic thing off entirely. --- Ten million dollars on a losing campaign, Twenty million starving and writhing in pain. Vicious_Dios Original - https://i.imgtc.ws/Zl0aw6F.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

Born early 83 but parents are boomers and I grew up in the middle of nowhere until teenage years so when you examine lifestyle contrast between classic gen-x and classic millennial, I'm like right in the middle lol. --- Place-holder sig because new phone and old sigs not saved :/ ...

This topic was one of those things where it started as one thing and then became something else and while in the process I didn't necessarily know what it meant or what its purpose was, in the end, the pieces came together and it became something more and greater than what I had initially intended and gave me a sort of "the circle of life has been completed here" type of moment and that happened thanks to teepan95, who is officially the winner of the topic, and I doubt he's surprised because teep you know me pretty well >_>
