They all look like it's just a matter of time till they shred the side of your torso or take a finger.

Sounds like a Tuesday in the 70s and 80s.

That’s an observation rather than a reference, yeah? I remember the not exactly gung-ho approach to personal safety back then.

I'll remember this next time I make a sliding gate

Which will be never

Would love to see and hear some interesting gate latches. (That swing shut)

The metal plate isn't flat. It bends upwards with a prong shaped piece. It's hard to see, but look at the reflections of light on it.

[–] fishos 6 points 3 months ago

Same. I had to watch it a few times to find it myself

What is it about the sounds in this that reminds me of a 2000s video game?
