That neuroscientist at Johns Hopkins told me I was chasing false peaks in my EEG readings

Yeah I don't know, are people really getting medical advice from a single lab visit and completely changing their whole approach? Seems like you could just relax your face without making it some big scientific breakthrough.

I picked manual drafting over CAD for my last project

Six hours for a shed? At that rate you could have built the dang thing by hand too... But hey, if the client framed it, that's a win. Maybe you should start charging extra for the "artisanal" look, like a hipster coffee shop charging five bucks for toast. Just tell people the pencil marks have more "soul" than a PDF. Though I bet the CAD crowd would argue your lines are crooked or something... People will pay for anything if you call it "handcrafted".

Got told my lawnmower was cutting too low and it saved my grass

Tall fescue actually browns less with taller cuts in summer.

Spent 6 hours trying to match a single panel of silver paint

Man I had a buddy try to fix a silver Lexus last month and he straight up threw three test panels in the trash before giving up and calling the customer to say he needed more time. The flake size was totally different between the factory paint and his can, so he had to order a special blend from the dealer. Silver cars are cursed, I swear.

Tried running a cutterhead at full speed in rocky sediment last Tuesday

Never considered the angle of impact could've been just perfect to punch through like that, @elliotr39. A glancing blow off the cutterhead might've given it just enough velocity and point of contact to do the damage before the screen even had a shot at it.
