Fun story the one time I thought I had killed myself on WD-40 it was trying to fix a friend's offbeat Leatherman that he had let rust into a very sorry state. For everyone who tells me not to use WD-40 on rust, yeah, okay, I know now guys.

But did YOU know they have a national hotlife for WD-40 safety?

If my mom ever asks if I've ever gained anything from wasting time online, I'm finally prepared. That said, I respect your bravery in using WD-40 in the first place. I still struggle putting a sandwich together, I'm afraid the industrial-grade construction equipment will have to wait.

The best solvent of my childhood was called "Aircraft remover." I understand Rustoleum owns them now and it's not the same stuff.

The warning label on the original shit said "will be fatal if swallowed." There was no prevarication.
