I wasn't very good at repairing things before I bought a house, but that was because I'd never done it really.

Now I'm passable.

At least you've got that in your corner, Mike. Despite sharing the same name as my cousin, at least you try!

I absolutely hate how society has made failure unacceptable. Without failing, we'll never learn how to do things right, in my opinion.

Well to me failure IS unacceptable.

As in, I won't accept it when I fail, so I keep trying until I get it right.
