Why is it "easy opening packaging" generally isn't?

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle: The more precisely you know how to
open a package, the less precisely you know where the contents will end
up in the process.

Or something along those lines.

Ah well ... thanks for the Sheldon Cooper-ish response. I WAS hoping for 
something a bit more whimsical

It is a fiendish plot to undermine the American psyche.

Not just fiendish, but satanistic.

Abolish gay marriage and abortion clinics, and God will assist you again
in opening with ease each and every package you desire the contents of.

(Not including condom packages of course.)

Should that not be spelt Satanistic?
Nevertheless you are probably right.

Second time I've told that joke today:

A kid and his dad are in a pharmacy.  The son points to the condom 
dispaly and asks:
- Dad, what are those?
- That's when you'll be a bit older and you go on a date.
- Ah... and the packs of 3?
- That's when you have a girlfriend:  Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
- And the box of 12?
- Sigh. That's when you're married:  January, February, March...

Why is it that all the shirts I possess that say "easy iron" on them are 
the *only* shirts that even require ironing in the first place?
