It starts to get on my nerves when i realize i use something often but unsure how it works. There have been so many appliances that i dismantled because it was like i was wanting just one little peek into Pandora’s Box.
Notably, i try to dismantle it sequentially such that i could still technically run it, but instead have my hands in there and softly interact, to see how things relate to each other. i tend to be particularly intrigued when it’s something in which, if i move some small part, it causes a few other things to happen.
that said, i’ve had my fair share of biteback. i’ve had the skin of my fingerprint knicked in-between something hard enough to bleed, i’ve touched what i didn’t think would still be really hot to the touch since i last ran the appliance, etc.; … still, i can’t fight the intrigue.
