Why I hate home improvement

Okay so normally I am all for helping out around the house. You want me to paint something- I'll paint it. Fix a leaky pipe - no problem. However, I hate pull down attic ladders. Why? Because when 120 pounds of ladder land on you your back hurts, when you hand gets caught in the spring that closes the door it hurts. When your fathers head gets caught like its a mouse trap- well after its over its funny, but at the time it wasn't. When your sister gets hit with a ten pound flashlight to the face its scary and when you have to drive your mom to the ER because she got hit with a bolt to the head - it's down right horrific. But whats down right nerve racking and makes me wake up in a cold sweat is that we have to all get together again and try to put that thing up next weekend. I voted that we just burned the thing- the idea was vetoed. Oh well I am getting a helmet and a ton of ibuprofen.
