When it comes to lids I put them under hot running water. It always works.

If I'm dealing with other things and failing hard, I go all caveman and lose all semblance of a modern man.

I ask my mommy to open it for me. Or I try to open it up with my hands first, it almost never works, then I try to grab a knife to open it up and then my mom pulls the thing out of my hand, worrying I might stab myself accidentally xd. And then she opens it up for me and yada yada

Men learn to open all things by hand, so that women need us. That's why real men have a grip strength over 9,000.

Put hand on one end of thing, put other hand on other end of thing, pull and sometimes twist if needed.

If thing does not open, apply more pressure until it opens. Works 103% of the time.

step 1: Hold the spoon in one hand and the jar firmly in the other.
step 2: Nestle the spoon in the crack between the lid and the glass. Push up and back.
step 3: Press up with the spoon to loosen the lid.
step 4: Let go of the spoon and twist the lid off.

last resort would be finding a man to open them for me
cause what else are their use other than opening shit for me
save all the cute girls from ntr manga

I'm not sure whether that would be a good Idea for Beer Bottle Types of Bottles or respectively, whether it would work for Cans as well.

That's the easy Way out, especially Can Openers, Nutcrackers and Bottle Openers for the Crown Corks though you could open them with a Lighter as well, however, I never managed to do it. I don't carry one with me, anyway.

Nice, I thought I was the only one, who uses the Leverage Method to get Air under the Lid, so that it easily opens. What's with all these Hot Water and/or raw Strength Plebs~ though I'm using the latter as a last Resort as well :p
