Why in the hell did they design those things with a rubber spindle wheel
that would turn into sticky goo and eat tapes? That one met my 16lb
sledge hammer!

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 JAlso 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
<https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Jesus%20clip>. 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.
