I will give it a shot:

"My 92 fell off the ghetto stack of bricks that I was using as a jack stand and when it hit the the jack that was under the car it bent my flex section of the header pipe in so that a piece of the flex mesh fell off and got stuck in my cat converter. I didn't see it until I put new gasket on my cat converter flange word! this was a stock header pipe on a 92 se"

no no no no no when the car was up safely supported
i removed the front y pipe connections to get the oil pan out
i didnt remove the front cat bolts cause i know they can break
i set the y-pipe on a brick so it wouldnt hang and it fell breaking some flex section which shot back to the cat on the test drive
then when i determined im keeping the car after(swapping heads,chains,timin covers,tensioners,guides,new gaskets etc. on a previously "dead"92 se) i was ready for the new cat gaskets and saw the sh^t in there
there's nothing ghetto about my work im just reminding people to not bend it and to look in the cat. whenever its off geeez
