Regarding food, is there a food bank nearby? There's no shame in going to one, they are often trying to get rid of surplus food before it goes bad.
Her name is Stan?
As Peppycito said, they don't make sparks, which is important if you're working somewhere that could have explosive fumes. The lanyard is traditional for sailors' tools to prevent loss as well as dropping it on someone below. Mostly decorative now but it's convenient to be able to let go of the tool if you need both hands for something.
Been wanting a prybar to go with my copper EDC stuff for a while but I was worried copper wouldn't be strong enough. Found this old wrench on ebay for $10 and modified it for my needs. Left one of the wrench jaws on there so there's two ways to use it as a prybar. The spike end is rounded enough to probably not tear through a pocket but tapered enough to splice rope or tighten knots. Ended up being 5 1/2" which is a nice size.
Most of those predate the internet
It was adaquatulent!
Obligatory fuck Andy Dick.
Not a terrible position to watch while spooning maybe?
That association was intentional. At the time, clean food wasn't a given.
I meant more like Shaq with a 2x4 vs eight Gary Colemans with nunchucks, but that was a good show at the time
Good point and all, but my first thought was that it could finally tell me who would win in various hypothetical fights lol
Part of the appeal is the space factor too. That photo of Aldrin with his pipe and slide rule on Gemeni is one of my favorite pictures even though it's sadly underexposed
I've been really happy with the pair of Flexon 609s I got off Amazon for $85 a few years ago. Still good as new after falling asleep in them and dropping them multiple times. Contact them if you aren't sure you're ordering the correct width, they have some listings that don't seem to show up while searching for certain sizes. I'm probably going to get a second pair just because I don't want to go back to my last pair even for the time it takes to replace lenses.
