OP only means he/she is the Original Posessor, so the lifetime of the tool should exceed the life of OP.

Otherwise, if the tool expires before the owner expires, I'd think the warranty should still apply.

Edit: Yeah I confused myself too LMFAO!

    Hey OP, have you looked very closely at the break point? Like, does half of the break fracture look corroded and the other half look like fresh break metal?

    If so, that's basically obvious signs of an aging stress crack that was unfortunately destined to give out eventually anyways.

    Cracker Jill? This is a real product by the way, I didn't name it. (lemmy.world)
     

    Seriously? The product is caramel coated popcorn, you'd think they might give it a more appropriate name, such as..

    Caramel Jills

    Edit: For people that aren't aware, this is their rebranding of Cracker Jacks, to try to be inclusive or some shit. I think they did a terrible rebranding of this, for reasons already stated. :(

    Regarding an unpaid bill (lemmy.world)
     

    Transcription:

    I just received your superheated letter in regard to the bill I owe you. You said you thought the bill could have been paid long ago, and you could not understand why it wasn't. Well, I will enlighten you right now.

    In 1907 I bought a saw mill on credit. In 1908 I bought an ox cart, two timber carts and a breach loading shotgun. I also bought a wire tester and a Colt revolver and two fine razorback hogs and all on the same installment plan. In 1909 the mill burned down and didn't leave a thing. One of the hogs died and I loaned the other to a Son-of-a-bitch who starved him to death. Then I joined a church. In 1910 my father was lynched for horse stealing. A railroader hooked up my daughter and it cost me $75 to keep the little bastard from becoming a relative of mine. In 1911 my boy caught the mumps and they went down him, so I had to have him castrated in order to save his life. That summer I went fishing and the boat overturned and I lost the biggest G-D catfish you ever saw and two of my sons drowned, neither of them being the one that was castrated.

    In 1915 my wife ran away with a heavy-hung removed and left me a pair of twins as a souvenir. Then I married the hired girl to keep expenses down but I had trouble getting her to go off. I asked the doctor and he said to excite her about the time I thought she was ready. That night I took the shotgun to bed with me and when I thought she was ready I stuck it out the window and pulled the trigger. The wife shit in bed, I ruptured myself and killed the best cow I ever had.

    In 1930 I burned out and took to drinking. I didn't stop until all I had left was a dollar watch and kidney trouble. For a time all I did was wind my watch and piss.

    The next year I decided to start all over again so I bought a manure spreader, a binder, a threshing machine, all on credit. Then along came a cyclone and blew them all into the next county. My wife got a dose of claps from a traveling sales- man, my youngest son wiped his ass on a corncob that was covered with rat poison and some Son-of-a-bitch denutted my best bull.

    At the present time if it costs me a nickel to shit, I'd have to puke. Yet you say you can cause me trouble. Listen, trying to get money out of me would be harder than trying to pack butter up a cat's ass with a red hot poker, but mister you are welcome to try.

    Edit: I do not condone the usage of slurs in the original post but left it in for historical accuracy.

    Coathanger Cursive Techksell (lemmy.world)
     

    Yes this is a real name, a doctor's name, spelling confirmed off the patient's prescription bottle. 9 letters, the longest name I've made so far.

    I started with the longest straightened coathanger I had available, approximately 43.5 inches long. Knowing I might end up running short on material with 9 letters, I made this one at around 3/4 of my typical scale.

    The final result you see is about 10 inches long, and I even had about 8 inches of excess to trim off at the end, meaning that it only took about 35.5 inches of material to make. Hey though, I'd much rather end up with a bit of excess than end up a letter short on material and wasted time. It took about an hour and a half to make.

    I really hate working at this scale though, as some bends that I'm usually comfortable with seem nearly impossible when scaled down. But I made it happen at least.

    Sorry that all measurements are in inches, I'll leave it to the readers/viewers out there to convert to common units. 🍌

    Edit: Can anyone explain how the hell autocorrect morphed this name into Miranda when it was originally texted to me?
