Why does it have to be such a bellend?

I'm sure it laughs at me. With its sneery little sneer, sticking to everyfuckingthing except where I want it to.

Fucking hate the stuff.

I won't give it the time of day.

It's been years now. Never missed the clingy little shit once.

Tin foil all the way!

Clingfilm sucks. Just not to the surface you want it to. Fuck clingfilm AngryGrin

Hate the fucking stuff. It can fuck right off.

Use greaseproof paper, so much more Nigel, so retro, or brown paper bags. If it is go in the fridge, a plate or upturned bowl will suffice.

I use it for wrapping items to post. This denies the cling film its real purpose in life and that is just revenge.

See also sellotape. The smug, sticky little twat.

I hate it too. I've seen some sort of reusable stretchy universal lids that remove the need for Clingfilm advertised, which I'm hoping will be the answer to all my problems. I just can't remember what the bloody things were called!

Isitjustmeorisiteveryoneelse · 08/03/2017 23:03

I've shunned it for years now, gone NC if you will. That'll learn it.

Cannot recommend it enough Wink

HeadFullofSteam · 08/03/2017 23:10

I further hate it by dint of the fact that Nigella calls it "cling".

Imissmy0ldusername · 08/03/2017 23:14

Lakeland also do perforated cling film. It has utterly transformed my life. I was first introduced to such clingy wonderfullness when I was wrapping bloody aeroplane food at high speed. Muggle cling film would not have sufficed. When I discovered that Lakeland also made such stuff, I never went back :)

Well, she would, wouldn't she?

That dispenser's nowt more than a Trojan horse, bringing 'cling' back in to where it's not welcome.
