I couldn’t start my lawnmower yesterday. I don’t know anything about lawnmowers, really, but I figured if I took it apart I could maybe see what was wrong. I took it apart and couldn’t see what was wrong. When my wife asked me to show her, I reassembled it, but then it unexpectedly started up fine. Lawn-mowing accomplished!

I didn’t do anything…honestly I have no idea. I guess the lawnmower equivalent of “did you try turning it off and turning it on again” is “did you try taking it apart and putting it back together”!

    Yeah, or there’s something obviously broken but no obvious way to fix, or a spring pings off during disassembly and it isn’t clear where it came from.
