Finished up, started 'er up (the car), and she asks, "Should there be stuff all over the ground?". Sure enough, giant puddle of oil on the ground. I forgot to make sure the O-ring came off w/ the old oil filter *sigh*. Luckly we noticed fast and no harm done, but what a PITA it was having to go get MORE oil just for that...
Haha, no way. I just did this a week ago. Only thing I did different was in addition to my car losing all of its oil, when I was backing up my car off the two ramps, one of the ramps kicked out and hit the bucket I had used to catch all the old oil. So...two huge puddles of oil.

Once is all it takes to never do it again
