This guy has a sense of humor - emergency 10mm socket

I was scanning Faceplant marketplace this morning and came across this listing . I laughed pretty hard

For those of you without Faceplant.

Like everyone that uses tools, I have heard the lost 10mm gag over and over. I bought a set of Fuller (made in Japan) socket set and a ratchet when I was 16 and started driving. I still use them to this day, and the 10mm is there with all the other sockets in the set. I will admit the 14 mm was replaced because I used the original one with my impact wrench and broke it. Operator error.

I've never lost one and I'm up one too.
When I pulled the engine out off my 996TT there was one under the intake. It's quality and my go to now.
