A good alternative to bad language. I screwed up boring the hole through a
plane tote I had spent umpty hours carefully shaping to perfection by hand.

Rather than swear, I just got out the can of gas and sacrificed it (the
plane tote, not the can of gas) to the woodworking gods. Burn baby burn.

It was somehow satisfying.
