I often puzzle about why there are factories churning out second-rate scissors when we, as a civilization, have produced these perfect ones:
Every time I go to a friend's house and find crappy scissors, a pack of these shows up at their door. Life is just better with tools that work. (though I do wish that they came in a small size because I also love having small scissors around — maybe these are good? (the bad reviews all seem to be parents freaking out about sending their boy children to school with purple scissors...)
