Shop joke Carefulling

The ole workhorse herself. Milwaukee inflator. Skookumer as frig.
Someone (under the heat of battle) cut the end off since we were desperate for PSIs during the blizzicane of 2026. We ordered the other flair on end but this back replacement showed up first. 🥴

1) why TF would you cut the end off?  2).where in the photo is this replacement you mention?  3) what the fuck is skookumer as frig supposed to mean?  Would you say "hotter as fuck"?

Let me introduce you to AvE.

I understand what AvE is. I also know that the expression is "skookum as frig", which paralells the more-common construction "<adjective> as fuck". "<adjective> than fuck", or "skookumer than frig", is just a misfire.

This guy AvE's.

Well done, Son. The uninitiated must be shown Uncle's way, even if they refuse to join the fold.
