Personally I've enjoyed the change, keeping track of the lid was always annoying. Also find it strange that everyone I've ever seen complain about it, never just riped it off, it's not that hard, I tried just for the sake of it, it's not any harder than opening the damn bottle. In fact, once saw one of these naggers complain about accidentally tearing it half way off, making it even more annoying apparently. What clowns.

"Keeping track of the lid"?????????

Brother how short of a memory span do you have?!

[–] LANIK2000@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

No, but I have friends and family and we occasionally share a bottle, extra annoyance point for sharing in a group of classmates or similar almost stranger group. Usually the first person to open it holds on to it, or you pass it with the bottle, but sometimes someone puts it down, for any reason really, lazyness, not expecting to close it soon, and before ya know it, ya searching for the fucking lid.

That is the wildest, stretchiest of hair splittings I've ever seen used to justify inconveniencing people with in the name of 'ecology'.

Wild? Ok... Sad, but anyways. I never advocated for inconveniencing people, I gave a specific example because you shitted on me specifically hating to keep track of it, insulting my memory. I generally find it more convenient, because I can more easily drink while driving too. Effectively turns a 2 hand activity into a 1 hand activity.

And before, I was pointing out, that I find it weird that the people that complain about it don't just rip it off, considering it's easy enough to almost rip it off by accident. And when it almost comes off, these dumbasses complain even more, instead of having the brilliant realization that they could maybe just rip it off completely instead of bitching about it being even more difficult to close or something since it's dangling now.
