You girls are cracking me up.
The I learned lesson came via my husband…. Wine bottles are pressurized and you can NOT remove the cork by pushing it in instead of out.
He decided when we were in college to cook a romantic dinner for us, wine and all. What he didn’t discover until too late was that he didn’t have a corkscrew. So he did exactly what any man would do and instead of going to borrow one from a neighbor he improvised. He disappeared with the wine and was gone for a bit. I heard a big pop noise and him grumbling rather loudly from the bathroom.
When I walked in EVERYTHING including him was covered in wine. He even had to wipe off his glasses to look at me. He’s taken a screw driver and hammer and had beaten the cork into the bottle causing it to explode.
