Rant: That midnight pipe repair turned into a flood at 2am

I was fixing a leaky P-trap under my kitchen sink in Denver around 1am. Thought I had it tight, but the coupling split when I cranked it one more time. Water sprayed everywhere for a solid 2 minutes before I found the shutoff behind the fridge. Anyone else have a late-night fix that made things way worse before getting better?

Put a drain pan under the washer box before you cut anything open, saves a ton of cleanup.
