I chose to weld the quarter panel on the '78 Ford instead of replacing it, and the shop owner called me crazy.

Three years ago I tried to design a logo based on a dream about a dancing pickle.

Pro tip: I used to think a facial steamer was just for opening pores until a client in Boise asked me to steam her engagement ring clean.

I wasted $150 on a 'universal' PDA cradle that never fit any of my three devices properly.

I finally heard a story about a 90s Otis hydraulic unit failing in a weird way.

Noticed more homeowners filming the install process lately, and it's kind of awkward when they ask for a retake.

Just realized my $80 glass suction cup handle snapped because I left it in the truck bed all winter

Ever try wrapping stuff in a towel? I had a cheap foam koozie that saved my favorite water bottle from cracking last winter.

Unpopular opinion: I just read a report from the NTSB that said over 60% of general aviation incidents linked to avionics involved improper database updates, which is wild to me.

Yeah but that loading step is part of the update process.

Warning: I saw a huge drop in hydraulic leaks after our shop switched to a new torque procedure

Ever try to argue with results? That five minutes is nothing compared to chasing a leak later. We made the same switch and our callback rate tanked.

Had to choose between a rare heirloom tomato or a proven hybrid for my garden plot in Nashville... everyone said go hybrid, but I picked the heirloom.

Great story" is the key part there. You get a few weird looking tomatoes and a fun thing to tell people. It's not exactly a life changing choice.

Can we talk about the difference between a 3-part and 4-part line for tower crane rigging?

Yeah Allen's right, it's a game changer. That extra part gives you way more fine control when you're trying to set something heavy right on the mark. I won't even look at a 3-part for a tight pick anymore.
