The great caulk gun disaster of my bathroom redo

I watched three separate online videos where people just squeeze the trigger until caulk comes out, then keep going. Every single one of them ended up with a huge, messy bead that needed a ton of cleanup. I did the same thing last week and got silicone all over my new subway tile. The trick is to cut a small hole in the tube and start slow, letting the bead form before you move the gun. Has anyone else learned this the messy way?

Why do we always skip the basics?

Ugh, that's the whole internet now. Everyone skips to the middle of the video and misses the basic step.
