Default I took a tool back to Sears today...

It was a 1/2" universal swivel. The chrome type for hand tools, that
you're absolutely not supposed to use on an impact. Well...I kinda used
it on an impact and immediately learned why that's not kosher.
Anyhoo, I walked up to the counter, plopped the remnants down on the
counter, and said as eloquently as possible, "I busted it." the girl
looked at it, looked at me, looked at it again, looked back at me, and
asked "Did you use this on an impact?"
I said, "Yes."
She leaned over (which was cool because she was cute as hell) and
whispered at me, "You're not supposed to do that, but I won't tell
anyone." She gave me a new one.
Whoo hoo! I'm gonna go break a whole **** load of tools at work
tomorrow!
