Hit 17 stripped screws on one shelf build, that finally changed my mind about pilot holes

I was putting together a heavy pine shelf in my garage last Saturday and thought I could skip drilling pilot holes to save time. Seventeen screws stripped out of the cheap wood before I gave up and went to the hardware store for a proper countersink bit. Has anyone else had that moment where one bad project finally makes you stop cutting corners?
