Horn and battery?

[terra 5,000+ posts]

so i decided to run my power wire today. im not gonna lie its been almost a year since i touched anything audio related on any car. so i unscrew the positive terminal from the battery and put the power wire under the screw. everytime it touches the terminal though, the horn goes off, which is very loud if your head is under the hood:laugh:

what am i forgetting here? probbaly doesnt help that i havent slept in 2 days but im pretty sure im being retarded and missing the obvious here...
