Oh man. 8-tracks. That was someone's engineering nightmare turned into reality.

On about the same level as 8 track cartridges.  Those were miserable things to.

My youngest had a fascination with the door on the VCR, he would fill it up with Legos.  Then I would have to fish them out, usually by taking the damn thing apart.  He finally killed it by stuffing it full of oatmeal.

Once, when my kids were all little, we were trying to watch a vhs movie some saturday morning.  The head got crudded up again so I tore into it.  You had to remove a little spring to get to the flying heads.  That tiny spring launched itself across the room that had a deep shag.  This was the 75th time cleaning the heads on this machine. 
 
I pulled on a tennis shoe and stomped that VCR into pieces.  My kids were screaming, my wife was pulling on my leg, they were all crying.  I knew I had enough money to go buy a new one that morning so I did.  Not a word, just left the house and came back with a new one that morning. 
 
I totally earned my reputation with my kids, stories like this they now share with their therapists.

Now that term I have known since my young days of working on dirt bikes and having that happen J Also referred to as a B*tch clip because of how much of a b*tch they are to get on or off without them flying across the shop to forever be lost and you don’t have an extra…..

Similar name, but different meaning for the jesus clip. So named because when you pop one off, they tend to go flying and you exclaim "Jesus, where did that go?"

They wouldnt put a jesus nut on a helicopter knowing youre supposed to get closer to jesus if they didnt want you to covet the helicopter, as the jesus nut is what keep it afloat, as should jesus in your life.

That's totally fine.  "Covet thy neighbor's helicopter" is not addressed in
Exodus.  Take the loophole.
