Comments on: A better way to open a new container of soft-solid deodorant http://www.spugbrap.com/blog/2007/09/a-better-way-to-open-a-new-container-of-soft-solid-deodorant/ This is a repository for my favorite scripts, regexes, commandlines, utilities, code snippets, tips, and other geeky things that might be useful to someone googling for an obscure solution some day. It's also a place to share my thoughts about companies I've dealt with, my favorite lifehacks, observations of interesting human behavior, clever and/or evil marketing schemes I've run across, and anything else I feel compelled to write about.

The only brand I've tried it on is the one pictured, Old Spice Red Zone soft solid. Thanks for the <i>Tube Wringer</i> tip, I'll have to try that, one of these days. That page says "They come in light, medium, and heavy duty versions." -- which version(s) have you used?

Put on more! I am concerned that too much resistance could actually break the twisting mechanism. I've noticed you take umbrage with products that don't let you get 100% of them... Might I suggest this product, it has done well for us: http://www.kk.org/cooltools/archives/000087.php Didn’t put enough deoderant on? Put on more!
