Life would be a lot easier with this. Well, at least a small part of it would be. Of course, you're probably thinking, "It's always the same end if you open it the same way," but what about the times you don't? I encountered this problem a lot today as I was handed trashbags right and left (my somewhat lazy brother handed them to me, so of course they weren't opened...) and picking up spare trashbags off the floor. If this was done, I could actually save three whole minutes of my life... And I know that the trashbags that have the pullstrings are colored, but they only color the pullstrings, not the entire bag, and we don't use these kind of bags, so I don't even have that advantage. *sigh*

       <optimistic> Another auto bun! Is this a trend or something?</o>

       They usually have a seam at the bottom and a perforated edge along the top, don't they?

       <recovers> Yeah, [UB], all the ones that I have seen do. But they're not too obvious at a glance.

       The bags provided in my grocers produce aisle had "open" with arrows pointing at the wrong end. So it's been halfbaked, for real. I fought one of those suckers for at least 30 seconds.[+]

       I think what you really meant to say, in your idea text, was that you had invented a small cartridge moulded into one corner of the bag that requires the user to squeeze it between thumb and forefinger. It then detonates a CO2 or N2 capsule that inflates the bag in less than a second?   

       Of course, dogs don't have opposable thumbs, so they won't be able to open them.

       Knock yourself out, old chap. Nice suit, by the way.

       I'm too lazy to search but I could have sworn this has been done.
