User error. Happens to the best of us. 🤣

What happens here

A third attempt is made with a screw, which continues to exhibit the same problematic behavior, struggling to drive into the wood. After the screw partially goes in, the operator decides to remove it using the impact driver. Upon pulling the screw out and inspecting it closely, they realize it is a 'bomb screw'—a term implying it's stripped, damaged, or has been previously used and is no longer fit for purpose. The head appears worn, and the threads may be compromised, explaining why it couldn't properly engage and drive into the wood. The person concludes that the screw was likely used elsewhere previously.

Goal: A third attempt is made, and upon removing the screw, the user realizes it is a damaged or previously used 'bomb screw,' which explains the repeated failures.

The freak the hell's going on here? Seriously, what's happening here? The foam screw. Oh, this was this was used somewhere else. All right.
