Sometimes someone doesnt use common sense and it ruins things for everyone.

Yup, me,too. “...’course I’m so old I might as well bring my flintlock! Hasn’t been used used a while!”
It was strategically placed in one quadrant of a revolving door to jam it.
Brilliant!
Remember this, in case needed.
I hope they use it for motocross!

Ha!
