Ruined

It's just like a old damn screw. Rusty, old, and most certainly not cooperating with me today. Normally, you can just stick your screwdriver in there, turn it which-ways, and then the damn thing dances around until it pops out. My dilemma, on the other hand, is that every time I turn my screw driver it just ruins the groove. As a result, it takes the normal looking cross, wears it down, and turns it into a circle. THEY DON'T MAKE CIRCULAR SCREWDRIVERS. It needs to come out though, I need to open this gadget to find the crunchy 'caramel' inner workings. If this doesn't happen, everything in life will be THAT much harder to undergo. I need to find out why it's stopping me from getting these damn answers. Answers to it's own damn questions. If only I could get this screw out...
