      Thanks for letting me know that song is in this video so I can be prepared to skip it. It’s already horrible without them making it even more cringe lol. That song just makes me want to cut my ears off so i can’t hear it and gouge my eyeballs out so I can’t see the screen. Whenever I hear that song it feels like someone playing frequencies harmful enough to kill an elephant directly into my ears with subwoofers and at the same time somebody squeezing my balls with a hydraulic press. If someone ever plays it in the same room as me or close enough to me that I can hear it I’m beating your ass.

    So I worked at Lowe’s for a couple months back in 2022 and we had just gotten those box cutters, I’m in a very gun friendly state and I saw that and had to buy it. I got it for like 15 bucks with my discount and still use it almost daily. I think it’s meant for carpets but I work at a gas station and use it to open boxes. It’s great with the regular blade for opening most boxes and I use the hook blade on anything that could be damaged and so far I have never cut any products accidentally. It’s also so much fun to play with too lol
