What do you mean "up until a few years ago"?  Doesn't everyone still have one in their garage???

Yeah! I remember those oil cans! Up until a few years ago, I still had one of those old metal spouts you had to stab into the top of the can.

It's a shallow dent in the metal that will 'pop' in and out where the metal stretched just enough. The name refers to the old metal lidded oil cans that would do the same thing when you squeezed the sides. Does anyone remember the old oil cans that you had to have a spout for? What about rotary phones? God I feel old.
