Do you pop or spoon?

No, that title wasn't some strange innuendo, I was popping a canister of pillsbury biscuits for dinner this evening and wondered. Am I the only person who is strangely excited to slam the canister against the counter to get the seal to break?

Now according to the instructions, you are supposed to hold the edge of a spoon to the perforated part of the canister and push gently until the seal breaks. But what fun is that? Banging the thing on the counter is pure enjoyment. And it has never caused any undue injury.

So do you follow the directions? Or do you take pleasure in banging your biscuits on the counter? which camp are you in?
