      True, but the bigger bags cost more and then you don’t really get to use the extra capacity of them, because the excess bag hangs over the edge of the can.

        My guy. This is by design, to prevent the exact issue you are complaining about and to give you enough leeway to actually close the bag properly too. You’re literally making a problem out of nothing just to be outraged over it.

          There’s no elasticity in the drawstrings to pull them tight around the can. It’s a flaw in the design. Also, I’m not a man. Keep your “my guy” comment to yourself.

            The drawstrings aren’t to tie the bag to the can, they’re to help you close the bag afterwards. I don’t care about your gender and you getting so upset about it is just making you look even more unhinged.

              Responding and having an opinion doesn’t make a person unhinged. I hope one day you have the opportunity to experience an interaction with a person who is actually unhinged. Maybe it will be you since you see yourself fit to seem others as unhinged. You must have first hand experience.

                No, what makes you unhinged is seeing some sort of personal attack in everything, including all the advice that people give you and creating completely made up issues for yourself, such as the trash can or the alleged attacks against people who failed to study your birth certificate and social media profiles first.

                  You don’t have my maiden name to look up my birth certificate. You shouldn’t be trying to look up my birth certificate, or my personal social media accounts, either. That is the equivalent of doxing a person. I reported your comment for insinuating that you have doxed me.

                  Also, it’s just a funny post about a common problem. You took it personally. One trash bag manufacturer actually does make a set of garbage bags that grip the can. It’s Hefty, and the bags are called “grippers” because this problem is more common than people realize. You don’t need to attack me, as is evident in your multiple comments that make degrading personal remarks against me.

                    You were the one getting angry for me saying “my guy”. But thanks for proving my point about you being unhinged. This is literally gaslighting.

                    You took it personally. … You don’t need to attack me

                    Would you stop with the “NO U!” / projecting type of counter arguments? Thanks.

                    as is evident in your multiple comments that make degrading personal remarks against me.

                    I replied to different comments making different points. But yet again, thanks for proving my point of you seeing this as an attack as well and showing everyone that you’re unhinged. Maybe stop trying to make this entire thing so personal & attack everyone. It’s okay to admit that you used the wrong bag size, there’s literally nothing wrong with that and it would solve multiple of your self made problems at once at this point with how big you blew this whole thing up now.

            “my guy” is used as a general reference regardless of the gender of the target, especially if on the internet, when discussing someone who can’t use a fucking garbage bag, but if you wish we can refer to you as “shit for brains” because you certainly don’t have anything useful up there.

              When you take the ASVAB and outscore my 97th percentile, or earn a graduate degree in a STEM field, I might take your insult to heart. As of now, you don’t strike me as very intelligent, or very polite.

                Coming from the person who can’t fit the right trash bag for their trash can that gets immediately upset from someone saying “my guy” and possibly being seen as a man. Grow up.

                  The trash can is the correct size for the bags. You act like you own stock in the companies that make them. I’m simply pointing out a design issue that could be improved.

                  Why don’t you be mature, and take your own advice. Find a better use of your time as an adult than attacking others online.

                    Oh, I will, since I do indeed have better things to do than talking to dense individuals who clearly have nothing better to do than making artificial problems where there aren’t any, and refuse any sort of advice that would solve their self-made problem for them, because that would mean they’d have to acknowledge the error of their own making.

                My 99 outscores your 97. Shit for brains is gender neutral and seems to apply to someone who has difficulty operating a trash can. Also the ASVAB is an entry test for everyone, go take the NFQT then come brag about your score on the interwebs.

                  If you had scored within the 99th percentile, I don’t think you would call your score a “99”. You didn’t score 99. You scored within the 99th percentile, if what you say is true. Also, if you scored within the 99th percentile you would have a career within the military that would most likely deny you the privilege of a civilian social media account, even if it were semi-anonymous. I do t think your commanding officers would be happy with your wasted time spent arguing on the internet. I also think they would see your use of profanity as a liability.

        Facepalm.

        You buy bags that are too small. Then you complain on the internet that the bags that are too small don’t fit. Then you start complaining that the bags that DO fit are too expensive.

        Then you have the audacity to accuse the bag companies of poor design.

        Fuck man. Life is hard for you I bet.
