    Slotted screws were a great invention for their time , kinda like Neanderthal man using rocks for tools , but here's the thing , the rest of the world stopped using rocks for tools a while ago

    Please do catch up America

    Listen, we can't walk across your border and claim Canada as our own. Total PR disaster. This is the only thing we have left to annoy you and your Eskimo kin. It's cold as hell, your down to the last screw for the job and you pull out a slotted screw made in 1685.

    Yea, good luck getting that with gloved or frozen hands.
