Comment on Jeshus H Christ. Why do they put delicious biscuits in these surprise cans?

I had to have a bunch of hardware installed in my hand after being involved in a workplace accident involving an explosion caused by compressed air.
I didn’t think it left anything but a physical mark until I opened a biscuit tin a couple months after recovery…Took about a year until opening crescent rolls and biscuit containers didn’t tickle the big PTSD nerve.

When my mom was a kid, the house next door exploded from a gas leak. Killed everyone inside and her trauma from that made her have to leave the room when I, the assigned can popper, popped one of these open. Same with balloons, anything with a loud, sudden noise.
PTSD is real, yo. That shit lasts a whole lifetime.

Luckily mine was fairly temporary, but for a good year or so I was pretty antsy around any kind of compressed gas.
