I had some very rare rims that cost a bloody fortune and once before I took them to have the tires replaced I wanted to exchange the lugs as they were black and perfect so I didn't want the shop to mar them. During the lug nut exchange I grabbed the 1/2" torque wrench and swung it toward the rim. Just then the socket came flying off (as I had forgotten to place the ratchet dimple at the socket alignment hole) and smacked the rim causing two big gashes in the rim. I was inventing new profanity thereafter. My wife's response: "It's just a car." Life does continue.
