"Found it!"

tape rips into strips

Life tip: just run your tongue along it. Your tongue can find it better than eyes or fingers.

Especially great for the communal roll of tape that came from the communal junk drawer. Tell all your family members & colleagues about the tongue licking tape trick. A real bonding opportunity.

Can you even legally use Scotch brand tape without consuming Scotch whisky beforehand?

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Get a tape gun. They’re great

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Put a small fold on the end.

[–] Klear@quokk.au 2 points 6 days ago

I'm not gonna use a time machine in order to have done this every time I need some tape.

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (2 children)

does no one fold the ends?

It's one of those things that's often not used enough to remember what a pain in the ass it was the last time.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

If so, I must be no one 😢

Take knife and put a slice all the way through the roll, then you have all premeasured strips with a clearly visible pull point

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

What if you need a longer piece?

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

Stick two of the strips together at the end

This is great by what was exceptional was the double joke in the title, great work OP

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 25 points 1 week ago

lol .... the last idiot that used me actually tore the end lengthwise in a long diagonal and now the edge of the end of the tape is everywhere

Love is like a roll of tape

It's real good for making two things one

But just like that roll of tape

Love sometimes breaks off before you are done

Another way that love is similar to tape

That I've noticed

Is sometimes, it's hard to see the end

You search 'round the roll

You search 'round the roll

You search 'round the roll

With your fingernail

Again and again and again and again

And again...
