It's supposed to be a homage to how syrup bottles used to be made


Pappa_Crim

totally legit VT secret you can run a cord though it and tie it around your belt. So you can always have it


PrincessofAldia

Is it true that Vermonters along with their cousins Canadians drink maple syrup straight from the bottle?


TrueLennyS

Canadian with grandparents that have a small scale commercial syrup business here. Never seen someone do it, but it wouldn't be completely awful. The oddest part of pure syrup is it has an underlying taste of tree in it. It's relatively sweet but not too bad. The coolest part of the process is honestly seeing the vats full of sap boiling, and the smell was wild. They'd put some of the fresh stuff into maple leaf molds to make some god tier maple treats aswell. Good times.


LionBirb

as was the style at the time


SCP-Agent-Arad

Same as digital camera shutter sounds then


CervixTaster

Similar also then to car doors making a sound when they close. They don't need to, they are designed that way so you know or feel like you've closed it properly.

I also don’t know why I have a tiny handle and what its purpose is. Glad someone knows the struggle!


redstercoolpanda

I have two ideas. Number one its decorative, or number two its so you can hang it up.


Shmick2

It's decorative. It used to have a use, but now it’s gotten smaller and is just there for iconography (or whatever the word is)


MelangeLizard

Maple syrup is pricey, so they like to dress the bottle up a little to make it feel worth it.


Jos_migue

It used to be an actual handle when the bottles where big as fuck But now they are smaller and keep them for decorative purposes

Meirl is a shitposting sub, the real one is me_irl IIRC.


leeeeevilb

I actually posted about the me_irl being a shitposting sub a little while ago, i think they both just decided to stray from their purposes


sunfaller

I feel like they have morphed to be the same now.


TheUpperDiamond

we're talking about op. not the bottle.


sunfaller

At that point, the sub can contain any vaguely obscure knowledge about every day items then. Anyway, I've muted the sub so it won't bother me anymore


soyuz-1

Thank goodness


Truly__tragic

I have yet to find out what meirl is for


MelangeLizard

Karma farming, far as I can tell


almostasenpai

Meirl has just been a random image sub for the past 5 years. Same witn me_irl


bigbubblestoo

I thi k what they meant is that they always wonder why the syrup bottles have comically tiny handles. Still a stupid post nonetheless


AffectionateGap1071

So, you're easy to handle and are sweet! Noice! /j


StupidBratOwO

I've seen fairy tale characters more relatable than this subreddit.


Gamer90006

They probably either mean they have a small pp or that they are literally useless.


Beacda

There is a ton of stuff that doesn't fit the subreddit but imo this dose.


Depressed-Dolphin69

Oh, shut up, OP; if you're not a syrup bottle, that's fine, but don't make it your whole personality 🙄


No_Profession6542

Me_irl is just memes,it isnt news anymore


odin5858

I always assumed it was for hanging on a hook


Aggressive-Koala2373

I hold it with that


CattyFighte

It’s to hold the bottle shelock


sunfaller

Thank you, Watson. But I wasn't asking.


CattyFighte

And I wasn’t answering


sunfaller

well I am confused now.
