I can't close the AC vent in my bedroom because the little handle has been snapped off and entirely painted over so I can't even use a tool to move the fucking thing, which sucks because it's getting closer to summer and someone keeps turning the fucking heater on. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Imma need a fucking super powerful electromagnet to make this thing ever move again. And at that point, it might just rip the whole thing out of the vent. ๐Ÿคฃ

I think they meant to block the vent using a magnetic sheet.

I did indeed mean a giant magnet

I mean... A magnetic sheet could still be a giant magnet. I'll just cover it with the super powerful electromagnet to split the difference.
