[Mr. Argumentor]

Gotta be pretty damned stupid to work on dangerous stuff all the time and not take basic safety precautions.

 

[wetwillie]

you never leaned over the vehicle with a zipper or belt buckle or bare skin touching the frame when you're undoing the positive first with a metal wrench?

No. Despite doing vast majority of my own car repairs. I've only had a service person to my house 1 time, ever - due to me being laid up.
I'll remark at this juncture that i am amazed at how often some people injure themseves.
Gotta be tough if ya aing gonnna focus.
Ok, my stuff is at 1650f. I need to go work it. Suppose i should put on pants.

 

[Jehannum]

I'm not arguing it - I acknowledged that. But for practical purposes I'm usually not that clumsy for that brief moment in time. I don't mind the work being moderately challenging. I've yet to blow myself up or electrocute myself, despite working with dangerous shit all the time.

"I'm not arguing it, here's another 100 words about why you're wrong".

OK boomer.

Safety is built on a system of risk assessment and avoidance, often plucking the low hanging fruit first.

But please, explain why I'm wrong some more.

It sure the hell is to subsequent generations. If you're over 30 your kids are thinking "ok boomer" several times a day. In a few years they'll verbalize it.

I agree with all of that. Pussys!

 

[Strings]

This arguing is pointless without pictures of the looks on your faces as you argue.
It is the picture thread ya know!

Countless times and nary even a tickle.

There's a lot of unfounded fear of electricity going on in here.

Just don't grab shit too tight that's downstream of the ignition coil while it's running.

Yes I know you can turn a battery into a welder/superheater/firestarter/bomb, so don't do that.

 

[HipHugHer]

^ should be "coils", plural, nowadays and some are made so you physically can't grab anything downstream from them.
Also I maybe got a little tickle once in the rain. Seemed about 25% more than sticking a 9v on your tongue. Whoopty do.

Did she fly around with those ears after you took the picture?

no she just chewed on that rawhide in a dejected manner

 

[Mean Mr. Mustard]

plus she could only fly in circles, as one ear is perma-up and the other is perma-bent over
