Default Metal Shavings

Did my oil change for the first time since using a ECS magnetic oil plug. Found a rather large metal shaving on the magnet. [:@]

This is going to suck.

I am FIGHTING myself not to take advantage of how wide open you just left yourself.

Very mature, Rondell (chappelle's reference)

There's me wanting to know what a "large one" looks like...then there's you trying to take advantage how "wide open" i left myself. This thread's going to hell...

If you wanted to show me what "rather large" looks like, maybe you could send along a picture of your boyfriend (I keed, I keeeed)
