    Well, there were these two old guys arguing about golf on TV. Can’t say that did wonders for me.

    Most every day this week, I'm scared that I'm not going to be able to accomplish all that I want and should.

    I'm scared of letting down the people I care about most.

    I'm scared that I'm not going to be strong enough when life throws really brutal curve balls at me.

    Last night when I was playing pool this guy a bit bigger than me was super trashed and out of nowhere started threatening me but I talked him down and then funny enough he came back up to me later and apologized and gave me a hug lol

    About 6 years ago I somehow (Safety, Maintenance, and Engineering departments never figured out how) managed to get stuck in a robot cage with 4 water jet cutting robots. I have never been more terrified in my life.

    One of my coworkers said he had never seen anyone move as fast as when I yanked the safety rip line to kill the machine. Didn’t get hurt, thank god, but found out that adrenaline makes me giddy. Every thing was flipping hilarious for a few hours after they got me out of the cage.

    Went hiking and one of my buddies collapsed from heat exhaustion. Had to call a heli.

    Before that, when Trump was elected and all the outcomes that came afterwards like roe v wade, school shootings, attacks on racial minorities, oh yeah and denial of covid 19 and vaccines.

    Edit: I can probably list more but I would have to keep on editing this post so ima stop it at that.

    I had a nightmare where a gory monster was in my attic, and got scared when I saw it.

    I teamed up with my family and we dissected it after killing it :D

    Last week my kid's mare got spooked by a plastic bag while said kid was riding her. They never flinched and everything was under control in a few seconds but you bet I was unable to breath while watching from afar.

    I work on very large (30+ tons) custom mining equipment that rotates side to side. One of the machines had its center of gravity above the axis of rotation. On it passing a certain point, the machine started rotating down on its own and almost smashed into the ground next to us. The spring applied brakes engaged and stopped it about 10in of the ground! If it had hit the ground, a multimillion dollar, one of a kind piece of equipment would have been ruined!
