Some of the heartfelt designs are both convenient and practical, such as the latest swivel tab for cans, yogurt bags with air handles, tape measures with locators, etc., with the help of these humanized tools, life has really become a lot easier.
But there are some utensils that are designed to be a bit "anti-human", not to mention that it is inconvenient to use, the key is that you have to use it in life, such as the new version of the packaging of watermelon cream.
Originally, it was like a pill, and it was just cut off the board when you ate it, but now I don't know who had to get a plastic bottle for it, and when you use it, you either can't spray it, or it sprays out a big lump at once, and you choke to death.
Bottled watermelon cream is a rare and strange design, and the next six "stupid" designs are really maddening, but in fact, they have been misunderstood by everyone for so many years!
01
Sealing rope for rice bags
Is there the same as me, every time I open the rice bag, I am always angry, I really can't open it right, and what I am thinking about is that with a rope to seal, there must be a "breakthrough" in a certain place, as long as the line can be pulled off the rope entirely.
Error demonstration
However, every time you cut it wrong, in the end, you still use scissors to cut it one by one, sometimes you are lucky enough to pull out a small piece of rope, most of them are directly ignoring the sealing rope, sharpening the knife Huo Huo to the rice bag.
In fact, the drawstring design on the woven bag is very convenient, with the drawstring to link the packaging of the opening, but than the sealing machine to seal out the packaging is stronger, the sealing rope can increase the bearing capacity of the bag, thereby reducing the risk of bag damage, people in ancient times have a record of the use of the sealing rope, people carry grain and grass and other items with cloth bags or sacks, and then thread the needle and wire for sealing.
There are two kinds of binding methods for sealing ropes, single line and double line, the open line head of the single line is from right to left, and the double line is from left to right.
After all the threads on both sides are completed, grasp the single and double threads on both sides of the rice bag with both hands, and gently pull at the same time, and the entire sealing thread will be very silky and smooth.
02
Tag on the collar
The label on the collar has been complained about by netizens for many years, but after many years, it is still "standing" on the collar, at this time many people are curious, why there is so much empty space in the clothes, this small label has to be sewn on the back of the neck, especially for friends with sensitive skin, it is simply not too prickly.
The label is tied to the neck on it, and some friends who can't stand it want to take scissors to click it down, but this operation is useless, the label on the neckline is sewn inside and three layers on the outside of the three layers are particularly strong, and cutting it off will increase its toughness, which is more abrasive to wear, unless you cut the outside of the clothes as well.
However, the label sewing at the neckline is the relevant regulations of the national garment industry, and the state has relevant regulations on the label position of different clothing, and there is a special "Instructions for the Use of Textiles and Clothing", which stipulates that some medium-length coats or suits can be sewn on the middle of the clothes, but the vast majority of the regular clothes we often wear have to sew the label at the collar as required, and the trouser label is sewn on the lower edge of the waistband.
After the update and iteration of the clothing market, more and more garment factories have cut some of the labels, and some clothes directly sew the labels on the outside of the clothes, otherwise they will directly make a flat label for everyone, as well as a detachable magnetic buckle, this design is not only convenient and comfortable, but also will make the clothes more fashionable.
03
Five-pin socket
The design of the five-hole socket is particularly fascinating, and the current mobile phone charger has a strange shape, especially a big pimple that is plugged vertically (who designed this shape?). It's annoying, and the fixed socket at home is generally a five-pin socket, with a three-pin underneath and a two-pin top, but these two plugs can't appear on the same socket at the same time.
After knowing the facts, it was found that such a design is indeed excusable, from the original intention of the design, the five-pin socket is not for users to plug in two plugs at the same time, that is to say, although it has five holes, it is for a plug to work.
Each socket has a maximum carrying power, if the socket is overloaded, it will cause the socket to heat up or scrap, and even cause a fire due to the socket being burned by electricity!
I believe that if the five-pin socket can be plugged into two electrical appliances at the same time, someone will definitely plug the air conditioner and induction cooker into the socket together, and the consequences can be imagined.
04
Utility knife
Dismantle the express, draw tape, sharpen the pencil artifact small carving knife, the price of a knife is also quite cheap, but as time goes by, you will find that the utility knife will become more and more difficult to use, just buy back when the express delivery quack fast, a few months later with a knife is better than directly picking.
Utility knives are all push-pull design, I don't know if any friends have ever wondered why the blades of utility knives are one section at a time, just for aesthetics?
No, utility knives are thinner and more brittle than regular knives, and no one should want to take the time to sharpen them with a whetstone, which is where the utility knife blade comes in.
The fader on the body of the utility knife and the card slot at the bottom can be broken down, and there will be a small gap between these two things, this seam is for the buyer to break the utility knife blade, and the second section can be continued after the first section of the blade is broken, and so on, so that there is no need to be afraid of the cutter head becoming dull in the future!

Mosquito coil dish
Summer is coming, our mosquito repellent artifacts should be on the field, mosquito coils with the development of the times have also extended a variety of new products, but for most people, or have a soft spot for mosquito coils, because it is not only burn-resistant and inexpensive, the only problem is that it is not easy to break, occasionally break a complete plate can blow a whole summer.
Someone shared with you a little trick of life before saying that the mosquito coil plate can actually be used without breaking it, it will automatically separate with the burning speed, but this person said only a little truth, the quality of the mosquito coil is different depending on the brand, some people tried not to break the use, but the mosquito coil was choked up in the middle of the night, we should break it or break it!
You can try to use a playing card to turn away the mosquito coil, but the requirement must be held steady, if you accidentally use the strength, the mosquito coil plate should be broken, which is better than breaking it with bare hands.
Don't be in a hurry to throw the broken mosquito coil, let's focus on a thrifty housekeeper to make the best use of it, each plate of mosquito coils will not send a small bracket, just use this soft leather bracket to directly card the broken mosquito coil inside, the top mosquito coil place to make the bottom, the original bottom to do the buckle, you can easily put the "broken wall" to the edge!

Instant noodle fork
Most people will use the plastic fork that comes with it to press the instant noodle lid when filling the instant noodles in the bucket, but some instant noodles have very soft forks and can't poke through the instant noodle lid at all, which makes people feel very sad.
At this time, the question arises, what if you eat instant noodles outside and there is nothing around you that can hold down the lid of instant noodles?
Still using a small fork, this time we don't poke vertically, just stick the fork horizontally on the edge of the instant noodles, and the seal will be more perfect.
Although these things are not very easy to use, but they are still indispensable partners in our lives, it is not difficult to find that they can be used rationally and properly kept, and their design drops can still be understood, such as the small steel ring on the ham sausage, which can be opened with a light tear, and there is no need to grin at all.
Everything exists reasonable, the designer must have his reason for this design, anyway, it is a design made for everyone's life, and it is good to be able to use it.
