Slightly OT, but what do you call people who role play as dragons/reptiles/etc? "Furries" seems inaccurate, but it's the first term that comes to mind when I see art like this.

A similar vein as this, at work I was talking about a heat gun:
"Look, the feet are molded into the cable so if you break it you have to buy theirs!"
I then pull the cable out to show it as an example and snap
I didn't realize it had a retention clip at all, so I lightly pulled it and snapped the thin plastic holding it in. I thought it was held in by friction.
Oops.
I've cut my finger with that sharp metal bump in the DisplayPort cable head. I forgot what I was doing, though. but I was struggling to unplug it and accidentally pressing it abobe that sharp metal bit.
The cut was small but deep, I end up enjoying to see my fresh red blood for a while because it was quite a lot. I rarely bleed that much.
The cash registers at a place I worked had this for the PS2 keyboard connection, too. IIRC, you needed to slide back a sleeve before giving the cable a tug. All this was behind the tight counter, buried under a layer of dust and whatever else fell behind the register. A skilled coworker could do it with one hand, but I never mastered that skill.
