I pushed the drill a little too hard from the other side. Didn’t realise the damage I’d done until I came around the other side to my wife shouting and screaming. ¯\(ツ)/¯

Any fuckup you can walk away from is better than a fuckup that leaves you with no ability to walk away from it. Doesn’t mean the fuckup won’t cost you in some or many ways, but at least you can still walk.

What about fuck ups where your wife walks away from you? You can still walk but it won't help.

Depends on the wife, really. 😁

I kid I kid!

A bit of boomer humour sometimes is OK.

As they say about flying, any landing you walk away from is a good landing. Being able to reuse the plane is a bonus.
