A FXR is a hard core creative mender. Creative menders engage in fixing as both an artform AND as a radically subversive social statement. 99% or more of the population of "civilized" western countries would rather throw something out than figure out how to mend it. Creative menders are not very well understood by "normal" people, since "normal people" do not tend to be hoarders of components, and castoff things that other people would throw away.
