If ever a bottle jar lid gets stuck and you can't open it, don't say you aren't strong enough to open it, instead say "The lid has fused". That way you don't look like a weakling but instead shift the blame for your ineptness to the manufacturer. Then when you finally do get the jar open you seem strong, because you over came great obstacles and did what no ordinary person has to do.
What if you give up and someone opens it for you and then they brag about their unfusing skills that you evidently don't have?
Damn, if I'd only read this before this afternoon, where I made the mistake of saying what you said not to say. And as a result looked like a weakling.
Strongness is overrated.
Its not cool to be buff
Surely it's worth employing the good old traditional 'hot water on the seal' method before settling for the "fused" claim?
Some might think so, but actually the 'hot water on the seal' method implies you aren't strong enough to open it without outside help. Saying it's fused, then empolying said method shows that you overcame problems with the power of your mind, as opposed to you being weak.
