I didn't.  Cool.

On the downside, they've switched the aerosol cans from the standard
nozzle widget used on almost every aerosol can in the world to a New
and Improved version.

    Old nozzle: Can falls head-down on floor.  Spend 20 minutes
    looking or nozzle in debris under bench. Reinsert nozzle. If not
    found, get another nozzle from the junk bin/coffee can.  Insert
    nozzle. 

    New nozzle: Can falls head-down on floor.  Nozzle smashes into
    several pieces.  Discard nearly full can of WD-40. Go buy new
    can. [1]

Not to mention that in the interest of making it look like you're
getting more for less, the cans are now taller and don't fit on the
shelf where I keep the oiler, WD-40, belt dressing, Fluid Film etc.

Grump.

[1] Yeah, yeah, there's Advanced Product Recovery.  Place can with
    unusable nozzle in garbage bag. Tie with rubber bands so that bag
    is closed and can is held near top of bag.  Suspend from
    tree. Shoot can with .22. Drain WD-40 from bottom of bag.

    All that for a crappy l'il nozzle?
