Exactly, that’s how it happens. He will realize that only the perfect washer will save him, and will remember the tin.
He will open it, and start trying different ones until one fits perfectly, but it’s a little oxidized. He digs a bit more, and finds a pretty shiny one! PERFECT!
This is a revelation! Suddenly, he totally understands what his old man was always talking about. The generational wisdom of the family has been successfully passed to the next generation. He looks to the heavens and says “I get it Dad.”
And from the next room, I call out “Hey, what’s going on? Need a washer for anything?”
I got a cookie tin of washers, handed down from my father-in-law. I have dug into it often. I’ve added a lot to it, too.
I’ve showed it to my son, and told him that this is his family legacy. He’s not impressed. I don’t think he’s taking this seriously…
The solution is simple. Get rid of the son, you can always try for a better one later, or adopt one.
One day he will require the cookie tin, and then he will understand.
