My father (who turns 85 today) was full of helpful lessons like that as I was growing up.
Two come immediately to mind:
Telling my brother and I never to go into the basement barefoot, then proceeding to step on an up-turned metal funnel and having it remove a half-inch section of his slipper and cut his heel.
And having the circular saw cut its own cord.

At least he wasn't barefoot. Imagine what sort of damage it could have done without the slipper.

Glad it ended on a less than worst case scenario.

So am I - I had visions of a bag of frozen peas and a very rapid drive to A&E...

Losing fingers is not the worst case scenario, but that too.

If a dolphin was falsely arrested, would he apply for a writ of Habeus Porpoise?

The SJWs would probably make a tuna protests.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

All you need is a watch. If it's a weekday afternoon, expect incoming pearls of wisdom.

CHVRN - Cold Sun[^]
So I found this new (sub-(sub-)(how many subs?)) genre last week called witch house.
A mix of various electronic music styles in slow tempo and lo-fi production.
Artists use weird symbols in their names and song titles (DI†▲ RΣDRUM - Ł0s† i₦ dRΣ▲m§[^] lured me in, but obviously didn't make it to SOTW ).
Anyway, this CHVRN song sounds pretty good, a bit dark
Perfect for those midnight moments sitting on the couch wondering whether you're going to bed or just sit there listening to more of this.

I'm 54 and I'm still willing to try to go with your music. I think if I listen more of your Music, maybe I can break the border

VAT in the Netherlands is usually 6% or 21%.
I'm pretty sure OG is not a basic human need and thus has a 21% VAT.
That makes his age 46 + (46 * 0.21) = 55.66 (at least in the Netherlands)

"Nashville is the capital of the U.S. state of Tennessee."
"Nashville Pussy is an American rock & roll band from Atlanta, Georgia."
One of their albums is named "From Hell to Texas".
It seems like they have no idea where they're coming from, so it must be 'Murican!
Their music is a bit too soft for my tastes.
Although I can't deny I've listened to them from time to time
