And be sure to discharge yourself first. Get the smallest pair of needle nose pliers possible, and bend it back very
slowly. The friction cause by bending the pins back causes heat to build up extremly quick, so you'r going to have to do it over a few minutes because heat + metal = broken. The chance of you breaking one of the pins off is minimal, but I doubt it will happen.If you cant find a tiny pair of needle nose pliers, use your finger nail, and push gently.

I have to wonder if you're cluess or just trolling. Use the tip of a ball point retractor pen. Be very very careful.

the end. Push them gently up till they look straight then compare them on at least two sides to the non damaged pins. Takes a bit of patience to get them lined up but it's very doable.
