I like this new feature very much - the lid no longer has to be held in the other hand or such but simply stays where it is needed.
People who are not able to perform most simple tasks like turning the lid a little sideways should be exempted from elections.
Yeah, turning it a bit to the side is no big deal.
However, I recently found out that this makes drinking things a little more viscous absolutely impossible without messing up your shit.
I drank a Kefir, which you normally shake before drinking. So there is a lot of it clinging to the inside of the cap for dear life - up until to that very moment you take a sip. Then, it decides that it had enough and spills on your clothes, face, shoes - whatever the fuck it can possibly get to.
So either you need a glass, let it sit until the cap is mostly empty or lick that cap and look like a complete degenerate.
I will be going to the store later to buy kefir and relive your experience so I can better judge its validity
How’d it go?
It’s been 8 hours. Either they ded. Or are too ashamed and embarrassed after getting covered in their drink.
I’m just too ashamed to admit that I went to the store to buy kefir like 5 times and each time bought half of the supermarket’s inventory but not kefir.
I finally did though. Cannot confirm the dripping, see comment above.
Thanks for the update, glad you are not ded!
Me too!
So, it took me embarrassingly many shopping trips to remember to buy kefir. But I finally did. For reference, I chose Andechser Bio Kefir. But to be honest I didn’t find the lid dripping. I shook before I opened and it was still fine. Repeated that a couple of times. Decided to leave some for the next day, maybe the consistency would change after opening. Still fine. Then I decided to let it warm to room temperature and still no dripping.
So unfortunately I cannot reproduce the scientific findings of @frosch.
Just take your shirt off while drinking.
I realized how good thing this was when I wanted to drink while carrying luggage. Converted me from a hater to a slightly less hater.
It just seems absolutely useless. I also wouldn’t want my cheek to get a stray drop of soda on it. I imaging most people just tear it off.
Hold up. You can’t hold the lid in the same hand you hold the bottle with and still feel eligible to vote?
Why hold the lid at all? It’s attached to the bottle.
Finally, someone who understands
Maybe people who can’t keep track of a bottle cap for the few seconds it takes to sip a little bit should be exempted from elections too?
So okay the bottle ones like this are fine
It is these fuckers I have an issue with
I swear if I ever see the person who designed the new milk cap I will make them choke on a fucking tetrapak.
The top one is just horrible on juice or smoothies. You open it and it’s sprays droplets all around.
Have you tried opening the milk anywhere else but on a flat solid surface? It sprays everywhere
Hello, fellow Alpsko mleko enjoyer
Hello in lep pozdrav.
Bottled water: Imagine drinking 240000 microplastic particles per bottle.
You’re getting thousands for every cent you pay! What a deal!
What’s the microplastics in drinking water though from the tap? I mean we know it isn’t going to be zero.
Depends on where you live. But rest assured: we’ll all have PFAS in our clits and plastic in our dicks by the time we go into the casket. There is no place on earth where PFAS aren’t raining down from the skies.
I just rip that mfer off tbh
Having been on holiday at a place with a beach recently and seeing how much plastic crap gets washed ashore and how much of that crap is bottle lids, I’m actually pretty okay with this change.
This is how the EU in fact decided for this measure.
just put the whole thing in your mouth. it’s not like you need any more practice
If you are able to open the cap to begin with, you’re capable of twisting it and tearing it off. It’s not that hard. I never understood the “controversy” when these were introduced, and I’m convinced that the ones too inept to take it off completely are the same ones who caused the caps to end up in the wrong place to begin with.
Uuuuuh never taken the cap off, but I also stopped losing the cap after putting it down 5 seconds ago to pour myself a glass of soda 🤷
Come on grandma, we’ve told you you can’t take your memory meds with soda, it’s bad for you. Here, have this glass of water…
You jest but I sure take my ritalin with coke XD
Average ID voters
Hold 0,00004km above mouth and pour it in like the fountains of Rome.
Just evolve to have a more pronounced overbite and shorter nose like the rest of us.
They came for the dogs first and now us
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?!
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 removed about it being even more difficult to close or something since it’s dangling now.
saw one of these naggers
Phew, I was afraid for a moment

Another moron-filter. People complain about simple gestures that could potentially help humanity in a small way. We’ve always had morons. We seem to reach a critical mass, though. The real issue if overpopulation: more morons in general.
It’s fine that those people exist, but they shouldn’t be allowed to reproduce or teach.
Those caps are fine. Drinking from plastic bottles is stupid enough. Having them at all was a huge step back.
What a world.
Eugenics … ftw?
