All you have to say is..."can't see the damn thing, so I come down here and go 'twang, wing, wong' on these knobs, 'eee-ah, eee-ah' on these ones, and stick this dooby in the slot here and have look. If it all looks nice, then everything's fine"

If it's a what's that for question, you go "You jam that in here, have a look through it and if everything lines up, it's working"

It's the KISS principle, except in these cases, add an "f" between the s's, for "for"
