Today, after complaining all my life that no one makes a decent can opener, I have realised that I have been using them the wrong way. I finally figured out that the cutting blade goes on the SIDE of the can not the TOP. I'm 57 years old. FML

There are two types of can opener, one which opens from the top and one which opens from the side. You must have only bought the side-opening style, even while using it wrong. They look very similar, but the blade angles are different. Opening from the top is much safer. You can toss the lid right away and not have any sharp angles to cut yourself on. Opening from the side leaves you with a lot of sharp parts to cut your wrist or finger.

I was 5 when I figured it out. Let me guess, you had to see an article on "the facebook" that said "you've been doing this all wrong!" before you "realized" it. Right? Morons

lol, there’s two different kinds! One goes on the side, one goes on top. I haven’t mastered the top one yet.
