Make sure you do double check, since no one needs too many tools...

That can be taken several different ways, depending if you are
referring to Too Many Tools as a personal pronoun or a general
statement on Stuff... (ISWYDT.)

Let's re-phrase that as "Most people don't need multiple duplicates or
mass quantities of unusual tools that only need to be used one at a
time."

Now having spares of special tools that can break on you during use,
can't be substituted around, and have a weeks-long lead time to get a
new one, yes.

But having a dozen 4" angle grinders or sparkplug thread chasers is
pointless. When it breaks, just go down to the Borg and get another.

Assuming you have a regular and sufficient income, and not one that
comes in spurts between dry spells. When you have spurts..you snag
what you can..because the dry spells mean you dont buy anything.

Really?

"Hurt" aint the word.

For Liberals, the truth is like salt to a slug.
Sunlight to a vampire.
Raid® to a cockroach.
Sheriff Brody to a shark
Bush to a Liberal

The truth doesn't just hurt. It's painful, like a red hot poker shoved
up their ass. Like sliding down a hundred foot razor blade using their
dick as a brake.

They HATE the truth."
