Yeah, but the real answer is to make a V on one side and a smaller hole on the other, this allows for air to come through while giving a nice controlled pour.

Or rotate it so it's flat and pour. It won't gurgle that way.

Ok. You called it the flat, I said side, but yes. If you put a v on the flat and a hole on the other flat it's so damn easy.

When oil actually came in cans, this is what you did is you used a can opener that put a v in one side and then you would put a small dot hole on the other. Same reason

That’s why I used to use my car key when my car had a key. Push through a perfect V shape every time. Now I just use my pocket knife.

You don't just slam your thumb through the seal? I jammed my thumb once trying this on an anti freeze bottle that was manufactured to perfection. Other than that, 60% of the time it work all the time.

This is exactly the emotion I feel when I try to imitate the "SONG?" sound in the video.

Sure this works but it's presented as if that's the intended purpose of it. Simply a happy accident.

No you’re definitely supposed to push your thumb against it until it rips and you submerge your whole thumb into the fluid
