Here are a couple of Type Q'isms.
Real men shift their own gears.
If you going be slow, look good doing it.

Usually what I tell myself immediately before beating the hell out of something in a way likely to irreparably damage it. Best used as option of last resort.
A bad idea, engineered to perfection.
A crossed thread is a tight thread!
Crossthread is better than no thread.
