Hot glue gun incident left a permanent mark on my desk

Did you try the old pencil eraser trick first @noahbaker? I had a similar thing happen with a hot glue gun on a wood table back in high school, ended up just calling it "art" and moving on lol. Sometimes the character is worth more than the headache of fixing it.

That client who asked for 'just a trim' still haunts me

Did your friend actually measure it with a tape or just eyeball it? My buddy who cuts hair over in Round Rock had a lady pull the SAME move, even brought a sewing ruler and showed her the before and after right on her own head and she still swore he took four inches. He told me later he just said "I'm sorry you feel that way ma'am" and handed her a mirror again. Some people just absolutely refuse to believe what's right in front of them.

Used to write all my code in Notepad before I discovered VS Code last spring

Lol @michael519 is totally right though. I tried going back to plain text once and spent like 10 minutes trying to figure out why my code wasn't running. Turns out I had a space in my file name cause old habits die hard.

Spent 3 hours trying to fix my monitor arm because of a stupid plastic clip

That tiny picture thing always drives me crazy though - I actually prefer the text only instructions.

Deep cleaned my air fryer basket with vinegar and baking soda after 6 months of neglect

Nah, you got off easy. Six months is rookie numbers. I let mine go for almost two years before I realized the heating element was caked in enough grease to fry a chicken without the basket. But here is the real question: did you actually scrub the little holes in the basket, or are you just calling it clean because the big chunks are gone? Because those tiny holes are where the real nastiness hides. I use a pipe cleaner on mine now because that's the only way to get in there. Trust me, your air fryer is probably still dirty.
