Ah yes, just let me get out my 'debugging' machete. After all, I keep a widlarizer on my bench for troubleshooting problematic circuits.

"How do you WIDLARIZE something? You take it over to the anvil part of the vice, and you beat on it with a hammer, until it is all crunched down to tiny little pieces, so small that you don’t even have to sweep it off the floor"
