in thread humor:
i was showing our 17 and 14 year old some bits under the hood of the car. coolant dangers, dip stick, oil levels, how not to put oil in the dipstick tube, rather pour into cap, etc...
the reason for this is my battery went dead on me today, and i needed to change it. so i break out the whole never bridge the two posts as it could electrocute you, etc.. which is ground, why not to let the positive contact any metals.
so then i start to remove the battery. ****ing nut on battery post broke loose so fast, my spanner ****ing bridged the posts

should have seen there eyes (and mine) when sparks started flying. we did have a good chuckle after i quickly knocked the spanner away, but **** me running wasn't that embarrasing LOLPMSL
