Sigh…she needs to learn that what happens to alpha males is that they fight, and with human alpha males, that tends to mean killing each other. Eventually there won’t be any men left. . .
I’ve never heard the knife trick. How exactly does that help?
My strategy: Grasp the lid in your left hand and the jar in your right. (Most righties do it the other way around.) That way when you turn the lid, you use the muscles that bring your arms towards your body, which tend to be stronger than the ones that move your arms away from your body.
It’s a pity there are guys like this in the world. Some women happen to think skinny dorks are hot. Why would I bother with a stupid alpha male who needs a lobster bib wherever he goes and reeks of Axe body spray when I can have a smart guy who understands my nerddom?
half of what leads guys to such introverted activities is a lack of understanding of social conventions. They are a skill which must be taught like any other. Very little of interpersonal communication is instinct, and a lot of parents tend to forget that.
“But what about all the pressure that we face to be macho, macho mans?”
“How dare you suggest that we don’t need to be macho, macho mans!?”
Bleh. Alpha. Yes, we’re a social species, but we are not pack animals, not anymore. Why do supposedly smart people embrace such nonsensical ideals that only contribute to sectarianism and divisiveness? We’re a big species now and, whether we’re ready for it or not, we need to act like one. Bleh.
I knew a couple skinny geeks in college. They’re all currently living in wedded bliss.
I feel bad for this guy. I can identify with him. I also want to smack him.
His adam’-apple is pretty manly…

Wait…is that such a bad thing? (jk)
Of course it would be bad. Who the hell else is gonna open my jars for me?
I have a wonderful jar opener that does wonders and he isn’t a guy- or human- or a he.
You shouldn’t use your cat that way… it’s cruel.
There’s an old fashioned jar opener that my family owns that we love and use. Looks something like this: http://dontlose.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/twister-jar-opener.jpg?w=468&h=468
i always think it’s weird when people dont know the jar opening trick! you just hit the sides of the lid with the flat side of a dull knife!

Bottom line: who needs men? 😉
If tapping the lid with a knife handle doesn’t work, smack the jar upside-down on the floor a couple of times. Do it gently at first…

Oh, well. Bottom’s up there, Triforce.

What William said in the second paragraph of his comment.
Jeez, gym memberships don’t cost that much.
People who always look for the easy way to do things rather than sweat always piss me off.
PUMP SOME IRON, NERDS!
POWERTHIRST! The drink for MEN!
My word, that was a dated refference.
He is interested in women, just not their point of view or ideas.
