decorative ribs

When you work in a toolshop, let’s say, in Oldcastle Ontario, and your toolmaker sees something he has no clue about what the function is, so he makes up such a wild idiotic assumption, it makes you question if he’s high, but he’s not, so you think he’s just retarded.

“These ribs cut into this core are so shallow, they must be decorative ribs…. “
“Dude, you’re retarded.”
