I tried I failed, it was springy I tried to bend it straight, it slipped,
it
flew at my knee, it hit my knee, it cut my knee through my jeans,
it bruised my knee, it hurts, I'm limping.

So I went out and bought one for $12.98 at Tractor Supply, shoulda done
that
first.

I don't remember being this dumb when I was younger, but then again I knew
everything when I was younger.

roftl, thats nothing. Try being young and dumb enough to think you could
very simply replace 2 sheets of fibrolite in your garage roof. A job that
should've taken no more than 2 hours with smokos along the way. Snort. 5
hours in total, the ******* things finally got cursed in to place. New
descriptions and words were invented. Lifting spiral roofing nails out with
pinch bar and hammer, peeling off/smashing fibrolite, trying to push new
lengths of fibrolite under the ******* flashing running the length of the
garage apex, finding some ******* had used ******* short lugs to *******
tack the ******* roofing iron into place before ******* nailing down with
******* spiral roofing nails, removing ******* short lugs, giving up trying
to pull ******* spiral nails from flashing and cutting the ******* instead,
peeling back, putting fibrolite in place, pushing ******* flashing back
down, nailing, caulking and painting. Give me a bent blade anyday.
