Oh man, that reminds me of my buddy installing vinyl plank. He fought one piece for twenty minutes, forcing it, tapping it, the whole deal. He finally gave up and walked away for a smoke. When he came back, he flipped the board end for end just to try something. It clicked right in, perfect and snug. He said the floor was telling him he was holding it wrong the whole time. Some of those old guys really know their stuff.

My dad did the same thing with laminate. Spent an hour on one plank before realizing it was upside down.
