Why does nobody talk about crashing your spindle into the vise at 2am?

Think about how we treat every other small disaster in life. People post about burning dinner or backing into a mailbox and everyone piles on with jokes and sympathy. But machine crashes at 2am get stuffed into the "shameful secrets" box and nobody says a word. Same thing happens with small mistakes at work, we all pretend we never mess up until someone finally admits it first. That silence makes a guy think he's the only one who ever did it, which is total nonsense. Everybody who has run a machine has kissed a vise at some point, we just need somebody to go first.
