You would think it would make me feel better to know that every person has intrusive thoughts. But it doesn’t at all, quite the opposite.
Yall are as crazy as I am, we are doomed.
Oh this hurts physically. So much frustration when soldering with the small wires. So much wasted solder to save your fingers from burning.
Thanks. I hate it.
If your fingers are burning from soldering, you’re doing it wrong.
From feeding tiny bits of solder. Not from soldering.
Or maybe you haven’t been doing it enough.
Was it satisfying? How did it feel? Don’t be shy about details.
I’m… err… asking for friend.
I hope they weren’t in California, that stuff causes cancer in California.
It causes cancer anywhere.
Melting crayons on oldschool incandescent lightbulbs was EXTREMELY satisfying as a kid
Somehow, and I honestly don’t know how, I have passed by countless fire alarms in my life and resisted the urge to pull every one I see. It’s been 46 years. Here’s hoping my record will continue to be unbroken.
But my goodness, I’ve spent a long time resisting the History Eraser Button. Those alarms are even jolly and candylike!
Please don’t erase history! We need it 😭🙏
OMG your so literally cray-cray and quirky! Here’s your participation trophy 🖕
This is what i’ve been doing as a kid.
What is going on in the photo? I don’t understand
He stuck the soldering iron right in the roll of solder. This pretty much ruins it.
Oh… Oh jeez…
Its a roll of solder which is melted to stick certain metals together and probably most well known for being used to stick electronic parts together. If you stab the soldering iron through it like this the roll would melt into itself and you would have to cut the strands off of the glob and use the cut pieces or just waste it and get a new one.
That truly sounds horrible. I totally get how this could be an intrusive thought.
I hope you step into a tub of Legos.
I hope you stub your little toe twice today.
May you only roll Natural Ones for your initiative.
May every cat you try to pet run away in fear.

Thanks. In 10 years of soldering, never once had I had this thought. Now I can’t unseen it! Damm

Just give in, do it to one spool, and you can move on with your life. Resistance only makes it hurt more.

That depends on the current and voltage

No need for great resistance: all it takes is one having a large capacity to stopped being induced by such messages into doing such acts.
At worse you just get stuck in a loop of “should I do it or should I not do it”.
