Current Events > Anyone else ever struggle with zip lock bags or am I just dumb?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Sometimes I have trouble getting them to align properly. Are I just stewpid?

No, some ziplock seals are just incredibly shitty and don't work.

Some of them are legitimately just designed like shit, it's not you.

I've had a few bags of cheese where there's a ziplock seal under the part you open, but the act of separating the opening pops the seal off of one side.

Nah, they can be a pain.

Not all zip locks are created equal

That's bagist!

Just have your staff deal with it.

The ones where you have to press on to seal the bag
never seems to want to seal no matter how many times I press on it.

Only with the cheap generic and store brand bags.

ah, that was in response to the topic title, the post ruined it

Only the cheap knock off ones that suck.

There are multiple types of intelligence, including visual-spatial intelligence. If you find yourself struggling with other spatial tasks, then this is just one more manifestation of your lack of aptitude in this particular facet of intelligence. That does not mean it is fair to classify you as dumb in general. In addition you could be just fine with visual-spatial intelligence, and you're just dealing with some crappy bags.

Almost 80% of CE thnks I'm dumb... that's some bullshit.
Actually, I am pretty dumb

According to the poll response prasing, technically everyone who responded thinks you're dumb.

All options either confirm that you are dumb or fail to reject the dumb hypothesis.

I do struggle with visual spacial information, coordination, math, and written language.

That just reflects a few narrow, specific things you don't have a strong aptitude then. Don't let that fact get you down, nor the vast majority of CErs indicating that you are dumb in a biased poll deeply skewed toward that outcome.

The old or cheap ones can be tricky but with the expensive new ones it is almost impossible to mess up.

No

I only buy the side with the plastic sliders. We'll most of the time I do. Also the knockoffs are way worse and harder to zip.

It doesn't bother me.
I have actual brain damage, I know I'm inhibited in many ways. I wouldn't have put it as an option if I couldn't laugh at myself.
