inWarning: I used a $5 plastic putty knife to seat carpet under a tricky baseboard heater in a 1950s Reno house and it saved me an hour of fighting.
Seems like overkill for a one time fix. A butter knife from the kitchen would probably do the same thing. Not everything needs a special tool.

inChanged my mind about those fiberglass mesh corner beads
Yeah they're a lifesaver on old houses... metal just fights you on those uneven walls. Stuck with them for any plaster repair now.

inMy kid asked me to explain loops while we were sorting laundry
Hey wait, that's actually more like a conditional statement, not a loop. You're checking each piece of laundry for a condition, like "if it's a sock, put it here." A real loop would be doing the same exact thing to each item. Like, folding every shirt the same way, one after another. Still a cool way to teach the basics though.
