Traced my intermittent ignition issues down since it finally gave up the ghost. Back of the switch popped off. Looks like it had issues prior and repaired so of course I attempted to repair it to make sure 100% this was the only issue. Apparently there were a few missing pieces (found a spring hidden in the CocoMat after putting it all back together). If one knew the spring location and contact plates orientation, you could bend the detents back with a pinch to hold it back. I ultimately ended up replacing the switch.

Got my yoga stretches in for sure, but happy to not have to jump the starter to get going. Made a nice jumper that I will keep in my emergency kit though!

Clumsy Ai, and funny for it as well: one arm turns into a leg, and one arm originates in his pelvis.

Though it does resemble how i feel sometimes. I'm currently drilling out the spotwelds of the metal plate under the dash that hold the hoodlatch. Same upside down yoga thing going on.
 
I agree on both counts, although I probably confused it because my prompt was to show a man contorting himself to do work under a BMW E9. It’s got enough problems with normal anatomy, asking for abnormal is too much for it. I do sometimes wish I had two right hands though.
