lol, holy shit. At least you got a nap out of it, I guess? I got oil in my eye once. Fuck, that was unpleasant. Eye washing stations make me cringe, now.

I drank a little power steeling fluid the last time I replaced the pump.... tasty.

was it delicious like coolant, or nasty? I got a drip of coolant in my mouth once while draining a friends cooling system to flush it out. Part of me was like "YEAH I GOTTA SWALLOW THIS IT TASTES GREAT". The other part of me was like "urrr, you should probably spit that out and rinse really well if you don't want to
DIE".
Oil in the eye was still the worst, however. Fuck minivans. Especially V6 minivans that are FWD. Jesus christ on a candy cane cross, "how do you get the spark plug out? It's completely inaccesible", "oh well, you see, you lift the engine with an engine hoist!", "... what?".
Don't even get me started on FWD V8's.
