Something we can ALL agree on

They are one of the dumber things I’ve ever encountered. So par for the course for progressive “thought,” in other words.

Agreed. How is it safer if i end up with gas all over my hands?

You’re welcome.

I've already ordered one. BUT I SHOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO.

I mean.. who decides that it's a good idea to not put a vent into something you pour? Sometime in the future, long after we are all dead, somebody is going to make bunches of money inventing a gas can with a vent.

I DO agree with that one.

I have spilled far more gasoline with these spring-loaded spouts than I ever did with the old ones. And I feel like it takes three hands to do even that.

I feel like this is an important moment here...

If you were to ask me about the single angriest moment I've had in recent memory right this very moment, my response without hesitation would revolve around one of those stupid arse locking gas cans. What an infuriating and mindless design failure some jackass that's never operated a gas can approved for sale.

Not only does half of your fuel leak out onto your hands, pants, shoes, and dead homies, but when you DO finally manage to unhinge your fingers and get a death grip on the spout to keep it open while somehow tilting the can it takes roughly 10 hours of standing in a special yoga pose known as 'man-car relations' to actually trickle out in it's entirety.

Whatever dumbass liberal from California decided that the old ones, for some reason, needed to be updated to keep us all "safer" needs to be put on a raft in the middle of Pacific ocean made out of the new gas cans.

It was the guy who had stock in the company that patented “no spill” gas can technology.

I agree. I thank my lucky stars my old man liberated two of the good ol metal ones from the National Guard back in the 70's.
