    On topic, I had four of those combo Phillips/strait slot screws to take out, to get off my broken flag holder. Damn Phillips stripped, and the strait slot part wasn't deep enough to get a good bite. So I had to drill them bitches out. What a pain in the arse.

    I like the game, i could give two shits about the players. In 10 years I'll still be there, where will they be? Without the US there would be no NHL, it would be a bunch if buffoons playing grab ass behind their mommies house.

    How you liking your non Canadian stars:rolleyes:

    Back to the subject abut your shitty bits/screws...

    After taking canadianies classes last night I'd say he was a dumb ass, shouldn't have let the other dumb as bankrupt the company and should have paired up with Ford. But that makes Ford a dumb ass too for wanting to use a shitty screw, typical of Ford, as we Tacoma owners know, they choose to use sub par products.

    So all in all, only a dumb ass likes Robertson heads.
