Do you talk to the thing you're building?
I've been fighting this dovetail joint for two weeks and I caught myself apologizing to the wood yesterday. Not in a joking way either. Just wondered if anyone else does this with materials or machines—treating them like they have moods, or like they can hear you being sloppy?

You're not apologizing to the wood, Felix. You're apologizing to yourself for the two weeks. Same thing happens with overdue books—I tell them I'm sorry, but it's the reader I mean.
