Lip balms here usually have a cap that you just pull to open, and that’s what I had been doing with the latest one I bought. Several times in the several weeks since I first opened it, I thought it’s really too hard an action. Today, maybe because I’m sick and weaker, I stopped to consider my repeated internal criticism and easily screwed the cap off.
So, I ask all of you to tell me of a moment when you realized that hammering a problem was not the best solution.
I can’t take credit for this one, that goes to my brother:
He once tried to smoosh a house fly with a literal ball peen hammer. Suffice to say, the fly dodged with ease, the glass window it was sitting on not so much.
When I was <5, I was a firefighter for Halloween. Apparently my mom wanted me to stop bothering her and she told me to go fight a fire. Apparently plastic axes can break windows, at least thin ones on a greenhouse. That is what firefighters do though…
