Haha I wouldn't either. Yeah, they're definitely cheap but I still don't want to be wasting it if it would fire on the other side of the rim with me putting it back in. I was just taught to wait a while to make sure it isn't one. Like I said, I've been just discarding them and moving on but if it's safe and common to turn it to try to fire again, I will.
