flawed technology - why hasnt someone made a BETTER one?
WTF? They have made better ones! Stop buying cheap crap from the $2 shop and complaining that it is cheaply made. I bought a Brabantia can opener in 1986 for $15 and still have it, though it is getting a little fucked now - but I got at least 15 years of good use out of it. When I was a kid we didn't have much money and my mother bought some cheap shitty can openers that were mediocre when new and shit within weeks - that used to grind my gears.

Seriously, the people that buy the cheapest low quality crap available then complain about the poor quality really piss me off. I spend good money to buy good quality stuff that will last well, why pay half as much for something that lasts for 10% as long?
