I drink instant coffee. Those jars are thicker than bullet proof glass. I would not want to be hit by one.

Good point, why are these instant coffee jars either the thickest, heaviest glass or flimsy plastic? Never in between.

And it's either a months worth, or two days. There's gotta be some serious science behind it all.

Month's worth: so much there you binge drink it in 2 days and buy more

2 days' worth: so little you end up paying x50 the price

But the lids are so flimsy. I know one of these days that heavy glass is gonna become thin plastic.

Improvise. Adapt. Overcome. Have a nice cup of coffee later.

Nice? It's Nescafe.

The world has gone so far off the rails, we have lived to see Nestlé become the good guys.

Nah, I wouldn't go that far.

Americans: we prefer guns, but we’ll use damn near anything. We just happen to be famous for using guns for everything from ordering takeaway to getting our hair cut.

Dumbass was lucky the driver didn't have his Marmite closer to hand. 🤌🏼

How very Australian. It's a small jump from fending off an attacker with venom to doing it with instant coffee.
