Click bait- why is the thing you want to see never listed in the ‘article’?!

Aug 19, 2022 5:43 PM

Everyone hates these because you click on it and then click all the way through every page, every ad, and the one you want to see (the mustard or milk) is not even there! Why? Because not giving you what you’re after guarantees that you will click all the way through trying to find it. So they get maximum ad revenue while screwing you over. Infuriating, I know.

BTW the mustard cap locks open, out of the way, if you push it back far enough.

The best explanation I’ve seen for the milk is that the indentation can pop out, allowing for expansion without bursting if you freeze it or drop it.

Deliberately malicious clickbait, even if it seems minor like this, is doing a massive amount of damage to our society by eroding norms.

That dent in the milk looks like it also makes it so you can store it on its side without it rolling around in the fridge.

if you leave a milk jug to go bad long enough it will expand . dent is to stop it from exploding

It's a pop-top, like on jars of jam. If the milk goes sour, it expands and pops out those voids, telling you not to drink it.

And they didn't even explain the purpose behind the handle on the milk jug

There was a movie scene where some guy used a carton of milk as a muzzle suppressor so as not to set of the gas in the house when he shot.

That's why they sell it in bags in Canada, no need for the gun holster.

The indentation in the milk jug doubles as a bowl for your oatmeal.

99% of these go in the "just because you can do it doesn't mean it was designed to do that" bucket.

My favorite is the Chinese food container "hack". Mfer it folds flat because THAT'S HOW BOXES ARE MADE. Your shoebox is a plate too!
