There were shadowy conspiracists lurking in the dark alleys of Washington, and hiding from the glaring sun in the High Desert of California, but they were laughably easy prey when the Martian lizard people, the subterranean Vril-empowered mole-men, and the globalist pedophile Commies did show up.

  • Edit: Disregard everything I wrote below! The new knife was from a different manufacturer, Swiza!

    Back when I was a kid, one difference in quality between Vic knives and all the cheap knock-offs was obvious to everyone, even if you had no clue about sharpness, holding an edge, manufacturing tolerances, etc.

    On a Vic knife, the corkscrew held its shape.
    On the cheap knock-offs it unwound and lengthened if you didn’t screw it into the cork all the way.

    Unfortunately, now that I’m 40 years old, on the newest model of Vic knives, the corkscrew lost its shape after a couple uses and can’t be folded back into the knife.
    To some small part of my soul that still retained its childhood values, this feels as if Superman died.
