A flatlander (I think a blogger from VA ) walks into a hardware store and asks for a chain saw that will cut 6 trees in one hour. The salesman recommends the top of the line model. The flatlander is suitably impressed, and buys it.
The next day he brings it back and says, "This chainsaw is defective. It would only cut down 1 tree and it took ALL DAY!"
The salesman takes the chain saw, starts it up to see what's wrong, and the flatlander says, "What's that noise?"

My brother borrowed my chainsaw last year and then complained that it wouldn't cut. I told him it had worked fine for me the last time I had used it. Then I remembered that I had loaned it to my children's godfather between now and then, and he had cleaned it thoroughly. I asked my brother if the chain was on backwards.
My wife loaned my electric drill (now that's another issue) to a friend of hers. The nice lady reported it would not drive a screw. She was running it in reverse... That said, I've been distracted and put the chain on backwards only to realize it as I adjusted tension...
Flatlander can't be me, I've just had to replace the bar on this last saw.

Had a neighbor who borrowed my chainsaw. He insisted for several days that he was experienced and finally convinced me to let him use it. He came back a little later to tell me the chain would not move and the engine kept stalling out. Yep, he did not know there is a chain brake activated by the hand guard. Needless to say we decided maybe he should not be turned loose unsupervised with my chain saw.
