This is the least funny xkcd comic.
- You just don't understand it.
  
  In that case, I know just the place!
  
  I found it funny before it was cool.
Wait how do I use a hammer?
Instructions unclear: Removed fingers can no longer hold hammer
(NOTE: USE A THUMB DETECTOR)
But what if I don't have a surface of wood?! UGH it should say on the BOX that they are meant for WOOD... What will I do with all this wood-nails now?!
I used to do AutoCAD drawings. Some of the instructions were painful to write out.
This post pleases me.
So that's what I've been doing wrong!
Caution: remove fingers prior to complete installation of nail.
"Wait... How do we nail this dude to the crucifix if we have to move his fingers out of the way?"
