*sigh*

Square drive screws are teh evil. Square drive screws that strip out faster than $2 hookers are so fantastical evil I can't believe it. Why do they make them? We can only guess.

That will be all.

[edit] The real kicker here is, these are stainless steel screws that cost some ludicrous amount per screw, which we have to use because the new style of treated lumber corrodes normal screws like butter. Aeeyah. [/edit]

A cheap screw is always better.

Square drive screws are teh pwnage, unless you suck ass at using them, like Dwippy here.

Are you saying 'Dwippy' sucks at screwing? Cannot screw properly? Or lacks the appropriate tools for an expensive, high-quality screw?

I'm just saying he needs to learn to use the equipment properly when facing a square shaped hole.

I'm not sure I ever want to be put in a position where I'm facing a square-shaped hole with my tools.

Kind of what I was thinking, to be honest.
