Stop giving me ideas. I don't need this. I need to finish resolving the self-induced peculiarities of the mods I already have.

I definitely don't need this.

Before you go to the track, you might want to cover that there + terminal.

It’s off because it won’t hold a charge. 6 years out of a watercraft battery isn’t bad though, it might still be kicking if it didn’t sit so long.

That would be nice instead of him polluting the other threads with the tin foil hat schtick.

I noticed at work we started going through over a case of 1000 nitrile gloves a month, we are usually a case every 2-3 months. Traced it down to one of the warehouse guys always wears them during the day even though we have work gloves available and is going through 5-6 pairs a day. So of course I go down and tell the warehouse manager, "hey, give your guys regular work gloves so we are not needlessly wasting the nitrile ones." He of course tells his guys I don't want them using nitrile gloves they have to use other gloves so now I have to go down and have words with all of them to straighten it out. Turns out the reason the warehouse guy wears gloves all the time is because he gets his nails done and doesn't want to ruin them

There is a joke that goes "How do you know that a mechanic got laid last night? Because his hands are clean". Guess the answer to this one is "Because he gets his nails done".
