Everybody knows that we worked on cars for many years without ratcheting wrenches. However nobody is willing to admit that they're the first wrench they reach for now.
I'm a mechanic and I rarely use them. The only reason I have them is because they were free.

Was that a Bob's Burgers reference? Because if so, winning.
I dunno if this has been said here yet, but "punishable by fine" just means "legal for rich people"
The good old days of carburetors, points ignition with distributor cap and rotor, dial telephones, yellow pages, bias ply tires, drum brakes, and 4 tv channels with programming brought in by radio waves were not as good as you remember.
None of us really have any idea what we're doing. We're just faking it and hoping that nobody calls our bluff.

There is nothing new under the sun.
