This dang packaging...

Ever bought something in a damn blister pack? Yeah those plastic monstrosities that require the jaws of life to open! Cut yourself yet? No? Just wait. Why they gotta do us like that? It's 2021. We can do better. #SayNoToBlisterPack

Dude, tell me about it. The other day I bought this new pair of scissors. Irony of the century, you literally need scissors to open the scissor pack. Smh.

I feel you, man. But you can use a can opener on the edge to open them. Less chance you'll injury your hand that way. Learned that trick from working in a crafting store for years.

I totally agree with you, it's high time to say goodbye to these blister packs. Apart from being dangerous, they're crap for the environment too. So much unnecessary plastic waste!

I s2g every piece of tech I got as a Christmas present was in one of these soul-sucking, finger-damaging monstrosities and I STILL can't find my Nintendo. #LostinThePlastic

Pro tip: Use a flathead screwdriver and a hammer to open blister packs. Just slip the flathead under the edge of the plastic and give it a gentle tap. Works every time. No more battle scars!

So as someone who works at a place making these packs, they're really used for theft prevention. Pain in the ass, I know, but they're hard to open for a reason! But hey, I do agree, companies should invest in finding a safer, recycling-friendly alternative.
