so, this one time when i was like 7, i decided to be "helpful" and wash my parents' car. i grabbed a bucket, filled it with water and dish soap (because, why not?), and went at it with a sponge. everything was going great until i realized i was using a scouring pad instead of a regular sponge... yup, scratched the whole car. mom freaked out, dad just laughed and said it was time for a new paint job anyway. lesson learned: double-check your tools before you unleash your inner cleaning beast 😂
