That time I tried to frame a wall with a bent speed square

Last Tuesday I grabbed my speed square without looking and spent 20 minutes wondering why all my angles were off before I noticed it had a slight curve from when I dropped it off a ladder three years ago in Austin. Has anyone else ever fought a tool for way too long before realizing it was the tool and not you?

Yeah @logantaylor I guess I was too busy blaming the lumber for being warped.

Wait, did you really not check the square before you started cutting?
