Agh! lugnuts overtorqued!

One of these days I'm gonna bop somebody on the noggin for this. I've got 16 out of 20 nuts on my 95 that are stuck! Already broke a 4way and a 1/2" breakover bar. These are full jacket nuts so they can't blame it on rust. Wth is wrong with people?

Or lack of a stick. I have seen the bosses kid at work put a 3/4 inch gun on lug nuts. I just laugh and walk away. You cant fix stupid...
