If you're only using two stands cause you only need to change the oil or whatever, the jack will be supporting the car at an angle. How is that not a recipe for just sliding off?

Because it's Jack Stands, not Jack Slides.

This made me chuckle more than it should have. Probably because even though this is different I have an uncle who will load down a trailer or the bed of his truck with stuff and then use straps and secure the hell out of it and literally always ends with tugging on a strap and saying "That's not going anywhere" Haha.

"That's not going anywhere"
These are wise words dude. People get fucked up by saying "watch this", but you're guaranteed to be safe if you slap something and say "that's not going anywhere".

My Mini is currently on jacks in my garage. It's not going anywhere.
No, I'm not that one.

I forgot to say it one time, the truck bucked like a horse and threw my recliner forty yards.

You're supposed to use wheel chocks as well, and obviously not pull on shit hard enough to pull it off the stands.
Rage is a hell of an anesthetic.

I could see you, but I couldn't hear you You were holding your hat in the breeze Turning away from me In this moment you were stolen...
