hoo buddy, if you think that's disrespectful i suggest you stay home polishing your silverware, reading magazines and online articles about engine building and order in everything because with that tissue paper skin of yours the world might just be a little too much for you to bear.

anyway, a dirty little secret here: i didn't go to school for this ****. i mean yeah, i was born dick first with a ratchet in hand and double stack snap on attached to my umbilical cord; but i still had to learn this junk. and i did so by experience. building and breaking ****. spending my own hard earned money. ******* something up because i didn't RTFSM or check a critical tolerance. years of snapping together junk, busting knuckles, figuring it out when there wasn't a forum to turn to for answers, all that.

sure it's possible you know some of the things i know, there's a vast amount of common knowledge out there daniel. but don't come chirping up with some bullshit hypothetical when you don't got no grease under your nails.

you don't gotta fake it to kick it homey.
All he knows is what he's gleaned on this forum and a lot of it gleaned incorrectly, yet he's giving advice as if he has 50 years experience. Some of us actually do.
