How to unpack a take-away, are people really this stupid?

Hmm. I thought that the bar was pretty low for using the internet nowadays. Clearly people no longer need to find the button to switch on the computer …

An AOL Living website (they have a blog called ParentDish which I frequent) gives advice on such tricky tasks as cooking marshmallows (”Smores”?) and unpacking a Chinese takeaway and putting it on a plate. Advanced readers wanting to learn a trade can make furniture.

The overly smiley pair on the video entreat us that “we discovered this by chance” … pile up some books and put a piece of flat wood on top, voila, a coffee table. Not exactly penicillin is it.
