  As an engineer, do not paint the pistons at all. If the paint stays on it adds resistance and if it doesn’t then it gums up the engine.

      Not with that attitude! If it doesn’t fit get a bigger hammer!

        As a non-mechanic that watches various channels working on vehicle sin various states of use and repair… It seems that half of vehicle work seems to require hammers, and the other half a hammer should never be near. And knowing the difference is a mystical art form.

      If you say something sarcastic you have to annotate it, such as with a /s, because no matter how stupid you think a take is there are people who unironically hold that opinion. It’s called “Poe’s Law”.

        Yeah, everyone. Listen up - we need to mark every joke so that everyone can laugh. Remember: the best jokes are the ones we have to explain.

    I know you’re getting downvoted for being whooshed but I wanted to say I appreciate the explanation on why this is horrible. This is way out of my areas of expertise lol.
