This should have been a fucking referendum.

  1. Think yourself lucky. We went through Brexit and still get landed with those annoying things.

  2. They could have given it a longer latch, so when open it doesn’t annoy you when you drink. Low IQ solution.

  3. I guess a spaniard would fall asleep before realising he could just rotate the bottle

  4. The worst part is when you try to close it, but it just doesn’t want to

  5. These at least stay in place.

    The water bottles one spin more than Mazepin.

  6. I imagine most people do like me and just twist them to snap them off and then use them like before, so it’s the most pointless law ever

  7. The amount of posts I’ve seen about this both on this sub and others is completely disproportional, wtf

  8. I heard the cap and the bottle have a different recycling process since it’s two different types of plastic. Meaning the measure completely overshot its purpose.

    Any truth to that?

  9. It’s actually hilarious to me that this is being pushed forward as the definitive anti-EU campaign strategy. Imagine how dumb they think we are.

  10. I swim out to sea and strangle fish with my bare hands just so they don’t think these caps make them safe.

  11. Has nobody figured out that you can rip it off anyway? I usually leave just one of the plastic thingies connected. That way it doesn’t bother me and I’m saving the environment single-handedly.

  12. I like that they put a minimum iq on sodas, people that cant even handle this probably shouldnt be allowed in public at all.

    They should add one of these on car handles aswell so less stupid people drive.

  13. It achieved a greater goal: give all Europeans a common thing to complain about.

  14. Just drink water, wine and beer. If you want to drink colored sugar water with some fizz you have got no sympathy on this silly tap.

    Granted, it is also on water bottles and I hate it but don’t make this a big thing. Use it as an Opportunity to Drink less of this shit

  15. I only learned about this very recently since I don’t drink soft drinks.

    Now they are even on milk cartons… I want to have the old school thingies back, just twist one of those end thingies and you’ve got an open carton…

  16. I snap it off every time, it’s annoying as fuck and they waste extra plastic.

  17. Personally, I don’t mind these, but I don’t see the point of having them.

  18. Design issues persist, but I do enjoy my noodlefingers no longer loosing them, constantly.

  19. In sincerely hope that every time someone opens one of those demented bottles one of the guys who decided to go with this regulation experiences one sudden and violent burst of sharting

  20. You know I wouldn’t mind these as much if they were at least not completely terrible and annoying. Some companies actually put thought into doing it well. Also I live in a country with a bottle return scheme. WHY DO WE NEED THIS?

  21. I like how this has the thing that’s stoked the most anti-EU sentiment online within the last 3 years. Not any actual serious problems. But this. Fair enough though fuck those things.

  22. Tijeritas y arreglado. Esos plásticos me la pueden comer entera

  23. Now I just hit them harder. I unleash all my fury on those caps! My wife is happy now. I’ll send a video of my happy wife to prove it

  24. I‘m gonna say it: I like them. They are extremely convenient while driving alone

  25. Just rip it off, eat it and wash it all down with the beverage you fucking soft eggs

  26. All I ever wanted from a bottle of Coke is to have my nose picked at the same time.
