Things That Make You Go !@#$%^&

How about replacing the disc brake pads on your vehicle?  Actually, I never even got to replace the pads, because in the process of trying to loosen the lug nuts, I sheared the head of the special lug nut so that I now have no way of gripping it to loosen it. 

But wait!  There’s more!

I also broke the special pattern in the key, so that now I can’t remove ANY of the special lug nuts.

I’ll only add, remarkably, I did not scream obscenities (though I thought them),  I did not throw anything (though the tire iron came close), I did not strike anything (just myself… gently on the leg), and I did not take my frustrations out on anyone else.  I must be mellowing in my old age…
