Yeah, man...my bike and I feel a little violated.
My M13s from Velomine were perfect out of the box and flagged with Ben's initials. I didn't touch them with a spoke wrench for well over a year until I recently hit a ridiculous pothole (filled with water and disguised as an innocent shallow puddle) and sent the rear one a little out of whack.

LizardSkins. I would have preferred using Brooks leather (for silly aesthetic reasons) but I really hate the way that stuff starts to smell like a hot car with a dead body in it after a while.
