The whole choking fad was the fault of the eco crowd, anyway. They suggested that the pulled tab be inserted into the can so as to not end up tossed carelessly on the ground.
What they failed to appreciate was the artistic value inherent in the thing, as witnessed by Jimmy Buffet's eventual line in "Margaritaville":
'Blew out my flipflop
Stepped on a poptop
Cut my heel, had to cruise on back home.
But there's booze in the blender
And soon it will render
That frozen concotion that helps me hang on..."
