I’ve just had to return a printer and the company asked me to print out a returns label. 😳

Just use a nail clipper, safer than using a knife.

[–] Reoru@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

That's a pretty good idea

[–] Mynameisnotdoug@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This post is reminding me how much Lemmy needs a "I'm done with this post, please don't show it on my feed anymore" option.

Well you'll need to buy another pair of scissors to open that pair. But then you'll need to buy another pair to open the pair you just bought. But then...

[–] arandomthought@vlemmy.net 1 points 1 year ago

I also imagine these scissors getting progressively smaller until you have to buy tweesers to handle the scissors you use to open the scissors you bought to open...

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Just one more scissor bro. It'll fix the whole problem bro I promise.

[–] mycatiskai@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

Put tip of one pair into the zip tie of the other pair and twist. Obviously open the second pair with the zip tie from the opened scissors.

I once bought a screwdriver that literally needed another screwdriver to open the packaging. πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

[–] kneelknee@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What kind of packaging requires a screwdriver to open? Either I've never seen that before or I've been opening things wrong....

[–] arandomthought@vlemmy.net 2 points 1 year ago

There are some kids toys where they hold the toy in place in the cardboard packaging by having a screw go through a little plastic plate, through the cardboard and then into the toy. I always found these really wastefull and anoying to open.

[–] NotYourSocialWorker@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

This is due to a murder that happened at an IKEA a couple of years ago. The murderer used knives from the department store.

[–] kneelknee@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But...someone could still stab with these scissors, no?

[–] WeeklyDoseOfTom@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

Anything can be a weapon if you really want it to

if you cant open those scissors you shouldn't be allowed to use them.

Curb Your Enthusiasm did an episode on this...

[–] c2h6@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That's why you use a kitchen knife for everything πŸ˜‚

[–] turn_to_follow@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

TIL people don't own knives.

[–] Entropywins@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Perfect application for teeth

[–] AtomicPurple@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

or know the screwdriver twist technique.

[–] mextremel@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That won't help, you need scissors to open the packaging for knives from IKEA.
