For a sad chuckle - I went to a machine usage class for my new machine and there was a woman there who bought a top of the line brand machine with everything on it. She has never sewn before, never took it out of the box when she bought it six months prior to class. When they got it set up and the instructor told her to turn it on, she pushed the button, it made that sound where the needle is setting and she started screaming "I broke it, I broke it". I hope she can make friends with her new machine. Poor lady.
