you would think they would know which direction a pipe wrench works. when i worked on a pipeline we had 6 foot valve wrenches.

Yup, he had the pipe wrench on backwards and he was turning the valve open instead of closed. Counterclockwise is open. Dumb asses

LOL, the antidote for nerve agent (Atropine and 2-Pam Chloride) are auto (spring loaded) self-injectors that one is supposed to use in their thigh. So, yeah...probably not a good thing to put a hole in your heart. Besides, the needles in those kits probably aren't long enough (maybe just over an inch long) to reach the heart on most people, but it sure looked painful when a fella I knew triggered one into his thumb. The needles are kind of soft as well and it hooked nicely when it hit his thumbnail before it filled his thumb with the stuff.

Note, when I was in the Corps, we would occasionally trigger one off to later use it as a training aid. Most of us were smart enough to not try and trigger one with our thumb. My buddy got a trip to the hospital for that one. I can only imagine the look on the medical staff's face when he told them how he filled his thumb with nerve agent antidote.

We carried them in Korea during our chemical exercises to combat Anthrax, but we were instructed to jab the outside of the thigh if you had to use it!

Never push a pipe wrench also WTF Taylor?:

IDK: Supposedly oceans of methane in our solar system:

Harvesting for over a century from extreme depths/locations and the daily consumption would equate to a shitton of pre-historic creatures. I'm told stars produce helium which is/has been captured by our planet's gravity and buried in Texas, etc : I wonder if helium plants have smoking areas...

Anyhoo; get your flu shot and covid booster:

I guess I'll need more windmills all over the fuck and trust the science. BBT regurgitates lines.

In their defense, in my younger days, I was replacing a gas water heater. Had the Black & Decker Book of Home Repair (not actual title, bit something like it). Great book for someone who doesn't know shit about shit and doesn't have money to pay someone who does...

Anyway, gas line had one of those "nut on the bottom pipe connects to the top pipe" setups. Pretty sure that's the accepted terminology. Picture in book was bass-ackwards. I cranked on that thing,, hammered it, even torched it (turned gas off long before, but still made wife leave the house). Eventually, flipped pipe wrench around and tried the other way...came right off.

I'll hunt down the picture tomorrow...

Found it. Granted, this was probably 20+ years ago.

But, this was wrong...
