    Yes - where there is a will there is a way - especially with beer.

    I'll commit those to memory.................you never know when you'd be stuck.

    some tips for emergencies

    Thank you sir! May I add a thirty third?

    Whilst having my first miserable summer day in metrosexual filled Paris (some city in mainland Europe) I had already endured such hardships as finding a strange lack of pubs and greasy spoons and having no idea where to find a hostel, resulting in staying a night in a "cheap"* hotel.

    Eventually a nearby supermarket was found, and beer called SWINKEL** was found and bought in a considerable quantities. Unfortunately, I was lacking in basic necessity, the bottle opener, and I had yet to learn of the many ways to open a bottle.

    So, I improvised, by jamming the lid in a wrought iron spiral on the balcony which succeeded in both tearing the lid off the bottle, and putting a bend into the balcony. Whilst this is hardly as elegant as many of the 32 methods shown, it is joyfully satisfying to do whilst getting sh|tfaced.



    *THEY LIED.

    **RECOMMENDED

    It's so easy to open a bottle, without yanking half of your teeth out. Use a lighter, a key, the top of an unopened bottle, an empty bottle... The list is endless.
    Although the wimmin should bring you a bottle-opener with the bottle, sometimes you have to use those basic survival skills! :D

    Being a smoker, I've used the lighter method many times. It's all in the fulcrum.

    a brother of mine refuses to use bottle openers for his brews. he believes in true neanderthal fashion, bottles should be opened with whatever means necessary within the locality. his list of items is quite awe-inspiring...

    I concur! I tried opening a bottle with a 1 cent coin yesterday. It's definitely doable, I just haven't quite figured out how. Try doing it with a folded sheet of A4 paper, it actually works :eek:

    I used to do "the lighter trick" with a keyring I had, but then I got one of these so I wouldn't have to take things out of my pocket or actually reach for anything.

    That's baby's saved me minutes of effort, and wowed many's a wimmin.
