A fun piece of Trivia: Jerry Cans are actually invented by the Nazis back in WWII to carry fuel (Jerry is slang for Germans used by the Allied forces).
So, we are using tyranny's own weapons against them!
The innovation is the three handles, which allow you to carry two cans side by side by grasping two adjacent handles. One man can hence carry 4 full cans of fuel.
By contrast the British used thinner walled cans with centre wire handles that rotted out quickly and were much more uncomfortable to carry, and only 2 at a time could be carried. Ger-man Ger-ee can. They were highly sought after during the war, and often were brought home after the war, where they survived in use for decades, as they were built using superior stamped steel with a weld line that was held off the floor preventing rust.

I'm sort of a history buff and knew the Germans were called Jerrys... Cheers Anon... ☕☕☕

I was hoping someone saw the full irony.😁
It's amazing what useful things can be learned from the Nazis.
