Simple Mind: Following Instructions

Why is it those of who love more power don't seem to like to pay attention to directions much? I am just as guilty as others. For Christmas, the King got me the MORE POWER, BIGGER THAN A LOT, KITCHEN AID PROFESSIONAL 500 MIXER. I use capitals not to shout, but so you understand … this is MORE POWER. I love machinery of MORE POWER, be it appliances or cars… MORE POWER, LOUDER MUFFLERS. That is just the way I roll. So there I was with my MORE POWER MIXER, in my kitchen. ... I had the booklet in my hand. So I sat down with a cup of coffee and skimmed the booklet/Cis, From A Simple Mind. More here.

Question: Are you good at following manufacturer's instructions re: how to put products together?
