I use waterproof grease (like the kind used on outboards) on most bolts.

I almost lost a job in a machine shop when I was a kid because I put some on the bridge of the safety glasses of my boss (the owner). Got an ass chewing on that one but managed to keep my job. That and High Spot Blue will take you a long way in the practical joke world.

Yep. I bought a small tube of anti-seize at least 30 years ago and have not run out yet.
My wife asked me why I speak so softly around the house. I said that I was worried that someone was listening. She laughed, I laughed, Alexa laughed.

It is the other gift that keeps on giving.

Put a tiny dot on a screw or bolt and screw 'er up. Oh damn, wipe off some on your fingers. Put the tools away and notice more is back on your fingers. Go find the tools and wipe the anti-seize off the tools. Oh damn, wipe off the tool drawer too. Wipe yet more off your fingers. Throw the paper towel away. Notice that it managed to leave a trail of anti-seize down the side of the trash can. Wipe down the trash can. Wipe off your fingers again. Finally got rid of it all. Later in the day, when you stand up from your favorite chair you will notice anti-seize on the chair. A quick survey shows that you have some on your pants and that got shared with your chair. As you reach for yet another paper towel you notice more on your hands and fingers... Run to the store and invest in your newest bestest shop buddy...
