I could see VF here on a good day. XF, no.
This.
Sounds like fun.
You can often re-rotate them as @paddyman98 mentioned, by tapping the edge of the slab against a hard (but slightly padded) surface. I used to...
Get yer Irish on in time for Saint Paddy's Day AND a cute li'l bunny rabbit in time for Easter! All with the same coin! :D Offered here is a...
