      My first thought is, "how many guys complained about getting their junk caught in the zipper before the manufacturer decided to make a warning label?"

        Probably just one with a great attorney. Like the lady who spilled the coffee and settled for millions.

          Actually, that case had merit.

            Probably in poor taste, but I was thinking of I get sucked out of the plane. I can wrap my new 25oz vest around my head to save me from the trauma.

              McDonald's totally deserved to lose that case; and they didn't pay nearly enough.

                        -at another mill, shop to be exact I was sitting in a crane watching a ladle full of steel about to open at the  casting machine. When a ladle doesn't self open it is lanced  open . A lance is just that, a disposable six foot hollow metal tube . Oxygen fills the lance controlled by the operator through a ball valve.Using a torch the oxygen fed lance is lit off.  The operator lit off the lance ran it into the ladle's bore and immediately there was a loud explosion. I looked at the casting deck as the dust cleared and thought "holy shit! that guys pants were blown off!" What I thought was tatters of cloth was his skin. The line attached to the lance had a small hole in it and oxygen had been pooling in his pant leg. He lanced the ladle open, a spark jumped off the steel and boom! he was flayed from his boot tops to his shirt hem.

                        Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                        Well, I have others.

                            yes, he did. He was a young guy that makes a difference they sent him up to a Boston hospital burn unit
                            When he was out of the hospital & on the mend he said he had to "not think about sex" because hanging with his girlfriend  could cause him serious pain…as if thinking has anything to do with it. I couldn't stop laughing. In my defense neither could he.

                            Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…

                              yeah. Don't mind me. I was drunk last night and I have no idea what I am talking about.

                              @steelworker woah. That's a crazy story. I'm glad he survived and I hope his goods are still functional.

                                      Today is Double Wesco Day. Coming to a post office near me in before 4pm. I’m very excited and slightly embarrassed…

                                        Congrats. Is this also “honesty with ingrid” day? Or has that already occurred?

                                        Maybe so. Maybe not
