You know those childproof containers and childproof caps that you find nowadays on everything from A to Z? I call them adult-proof. I don't know whether children can open them but adults sure can't. (I wouldn't be surprised if children can open them more easily than adults, because children are clever little devils. Just look at how much better children are with computers than their parents or grandparents.)
Today I was trying to open a bottle of toilet-bowl cleaner. I think that I broke the childproof cap mechanism, causing the contents to leak out around the neck and all over the outside of the bottle and onto my skin—which can't be good for it. Well, that's the price I must pay for ensuring the safety of the zero children in my household.
