I purchased some Caulk at Home Depot but I cannot, for the life of me, get it out of its tube.
I have tried stroking the caulk, sucking the caulk, grabbing the caulk, and more but all with no results.
Dammit people I have cracks that are going unfilled because I can't be my caulk out of its tube!!!!!

bring the caulk back down there and let them stroke it for you, perhaps they'll even suck on it, or even beat it. Truth is, though that won't help your problem much. The best thing to do is to cut off the tip of the caulk with a knife, and everything should come out after that...

DAM that is great! I'm pretty good at getting the caulk out, just ask shooter,,, Just be careful, if the caulk gets hard it might take longer to get out. If the cracks that need to be filled are very wide or deep you may need more caulk...

You have to cut off the tip and then stick a long nail or something down the tube and break the seal so the caulk will come out. Did you read the instructions?

Poor Poor Derwood.
Can't get your caulk to perform as it should? Well, lucky you! I just happen to be an exaulted caulk technician exspurt.
Bring it on ovah heah. I ain't found a caulk yet that I couldn't get to squirt out that white creamy stuff. Got several cracks over here you could test it on. We'll make a party of it!
Ya Hoooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

I looked up Caulk on Wikipedia and there was a picture of YOU applying it. I swear.

ummm...after you cut the end off the spout and pierce the inner seal, you have to put the tube in a caulking gun and squeeze the handle

Dammit, Derwood, you are absolutely clueless.
You can stroke it, suck it, grab it, bend it like it's got Peyronie's syndrome, but it ain't gonna get it out of it's tube until you dab on some Slash Splash or Smeg-EezeOut.
Now, get a firm grip on your caulk, smear either one of those things on it and get to work.

If there are chemicals involved, you might want to eliminate
them. Legal or illegal.
Blood pressure meds or E will definitely put a damper
on your expectations.

Did you puncture the seal after you cut the tip off??
