So I have been putting off ordering a prybaby and then today, the wife informs me that we are going to the home improvement superstore. I am to finally replace the toilet, patch a hole in the bathroom wall and repaint* :help:

So, I had a tub of spackle, a tub of plumber's goop and a gallon of paint that needed opening, twice EACH. Also, I had to pop the plastic toilet holder-downer bolt cover doohickies off. And there I was using a screwdriver like a common beast. >:(

I also had to root through the kitchen to find a bottle opener for the post-remodling Corona.

Gosh, that visual is enough to make any self-respecting EDC junkie just bawl. :'(

You can always comfort yourself with the knowledge that more prying/scraping/popping opportunities are lurking out there...and hey, Peter's got the mini-prybabies coming out this week, so all is not lost.

Yup, I was a house painter and paper hanger for 20 years and the Prybaby was really invented for home improvement kind of work. It happens to be useful for other folks too but it really shines for home projects.
