I watched the first three seasons of The Expanse wrong and didn't even know it...

Honestly, that's the best way to watch most things. You get to enjoy it without all the nitpicky rules. Pure freedom right there.

Hot take: That perfect furnace run in Flagstaff last October ruined my local shop for me.

Yeah exactly, chasing that perfect setup is a total trap (I've fallen for it before with gear and just ended up frustrated).

Vent: Had to choose between a new walk-in or a bigger hood system for our spot in Tacoma

But how do you even run a kitchen without proper ventilation?

My main forge burner sputtered out halfway through a commissioned gate hinge

My uncle used to run a forge for a living, and his old burner was just a piece of pipe with a hole drilled in it. He said the only time it ever failed was when a spider decided to build a nest inside the air intake overnight. Took him a whole morning to figure out why it wouldn't light. Makes you wonder if the problem is ever the design itself, or just the random junk that finds its way in.

Had a client bring in a PC that smelled like burnt popcorn for a solid week.

Man, a dead mouse is rough. My buddy opened a really old desktop for a family member and it was packed with those foam packing peanuts, like someone just used the case as a trash can. They were all stuck to the fans and everything. He said it took him an hour to pick them all out by hand. I mean, how does that even happen? Just dumping your packing stuff into your computer tower.
