Uncooperative zipper

[rainyghost]

The older a man gets, the more catastrophic an uncooperative zipper can be.

No catastrophes yet, but they are getting harder to work...

I used to rub a candle on them to make them run easier on my motor bike jackets.

Boy, that's true. You remember your younger days when you zipped and caught something
in your zipper that should not have been there

My only zipper problems have to do with fabric caught in the zipper of my puffy overcoat.

I just can’t fathom anything caught in that zipper below the belt!!!

For Sure! Check out the Sewing section at a Walmart, or a fabric store, and look for "zipper lubricant". My wife keeps some on hand, and it's like a candle stick....just rub some on the zipper, run it up and down a couple of times, and it should work much better. ;

Not the zipper you are thinking about. I went to the doctor's office for a physical last year. It was cold outside and I had a padded jacket on. The zipper got stuck. The doctor's staff tried to unzip it but couldn't, so I ended up pulling it over my head. Very embarrassing, but they got a great laugh out of it!

So, how'd you get the jacket back on after the examination? Did the zipper 'unfreeze'?

Well, your late for job interview
Your running late, a bit anxious...decide to empty bladder before checking in with secretary
You zip up, not aware part of you 'junk' is not quite tucked away

If you don't have zipper lubricant or a candle, sometimes a pencil can be used.

No, but I froze without it!

WD40

Rub a candle on it or a crayon, or WD40

Or the wax for canning. That’s also useful for a window that doesn’t want to slide smoothly.

That was hilarious. Loved that show.

My daughter caught my grandson when he was very young. They both felt like h*ll.

A bar of soap works very well
