I'm sitting here cutting the plastic off the ends of my speaker wire, and I accidentally cut too far on one, cutting through the copper wires inside. No problem; I continue cutting until I've prepared both ends. Now I decide that I want both the positive and negative channels to be the same length, so I cut off the last inch of the longer one...
...and suddenly I'm showered in copper pubes. It was so unexpected. One second I'm cutting, and the next a pile of copper curls explode in my face. They weren't even curly to begin with; they were totally flat and straight until I cut them off. It's like they had waited their entire existence to jump in my face and make me laugh... prowling inside that plastic sheath... ready to pounce.
They're everywhere, and they cling to fabric. I can't get them off.
