    My sisters bough me some kitchware, including these fancy ceramic salt and pepper shakers.

    Each shaker is one solid piece with little holes at the top. Underneath there is one larger hole with a plastic plug in it.

    To fill them, you are supposed to turn them over, take the plug out, and fill them through the large hole. WTF?

    you turn them over and cover the "little holes" with your hand while you fill it up.

    You don't think I just spent 10 minutes trying to do that?

    Half of what I put in the shaker ended up back in my hand.

    I finally just held them sideways and only filled them about 1/3 each.

    just cover the holes w/ some scotch tape or something, then you can flip it over w/ losing anything.

    Yeah, I just thought of that.

    It's still a stupid design.

    Are you absolutely sure you can't open it from the top as well? That's very weird...

    It would be even weirder if they had the plastic plug at the bottom AND a way to open from the top.

    Neither did you.
    You obviously didn't need them to figure out how to turn me on and use me.

    I love the ones that you fill from the bottom, due solely to the fact that I love taking the plug out, and, while using a bit of dexterity and quick hands, placing them back on the table without dumping all the contents.

    Shoogarbear obviously lacks your quick hands and dexterity.

    , I can do it without dumping all the contents.

    Anway, I call BS on your being able to do that with these:

    That's close to what they look like, except with a solid color.

    I just put a finger over the hole and then quickly slide it out, but you could actually do it much easier with a sheet of paper.

    Funny...the first time I remember ever actually having to fill one myself, I ended up with salt all over the counter.

    Pepper was no big deal, because I have a one-handed pepper mill that loads from the top.
