A moment of my life was saved with a simple life tip and no one knows it but I want to tell someone so I'm telling you reddit. LPT.

Earlier this year, I went fishing alone and caught a nice sized northern pike. It was a beautiful looking fish but way too big to eat myself. I decided it would be a shame to waste it and since I was already in my car, driving back from the lake I decided I would bring it to my grandma as I knew she loved eating pike and was always telling me to bring her some the next time I went fishing.<br><br>The way my luck played out, she was busy getting groceries and told me to bring the cooler with the fish in it inside to keep it cool, but warned me that the screen door locks from the inside. She was in a hurry to finish getting groceries, and I was in a hurry to get to work. It took me less than a minute to bring the cooler of fish in and no sooner had I sat it down than the screen door slammed shut between my feet. <br><br>Like clockwork she yelled from inside the house, "Did the screen lock?!" I was relieved because I remembered a subreddit post I saw and saved where a commenter gave an idea of sticking a pic or a tool thin and long enough into the crack of the door and using it to pull the tab that opens it up. <br><br>A long butter knife was the solution to my immediate problem. I opened up the screen door, no harm done.<br><br>So thank you whoever you are that posted that. In a moment of my life, where everything came together just right, or maybe actually just wrong for me as my grandma eventually decided against eating the pike and made me take it out back and bury it, you saved me from possibly hours of stress and a missed shift at work. In a chaotic world where unpredictable things like this happen, I was ready for it!
