Men can fix anything
« on: January 21, 2012, 01:12:43 PM »
I have a friend who's one of those people who send emails with goofy attachments, and does it all day. I thought this one was funny, though.

MEN CAN FIX ANYTHING!
Don't have a spoon? I can fix that!


Seatbelt broken? I can fix that!


New TV too big for the old cabinet? I can fix that!


Electrical problem? I can fix that!


Car stereo stolen? I can fix that!


Bookshelf cracking under the weight? I can fix that!


Can't afford a real GPS? I can fix that!


No ice chest? I can fix that!


Can't read the ATM screen? I can fix that!


Car imported from the wrong country? I can fix that!


Satellite go out in the rain? I can fix that!


Electric stove broken and can't heat coffee? I fixed that.


Wiper motor burned out? I can fix that!


What?


Display rack falling over? I can fix that!


Exhaust pipe dragging? I can fix that!


Gotta feed the baby AND do the laundry? I can fix that!


Cables falling behind the desk? I can fix that! I actually think that's ingenious.


Out of diapers? I can fix that!


Speechless! These are some of the best I have ever seen. That last one ------only a man could think of it!

Seen that here in Kuwait.  Scary
There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

I have done at least two of those. And I have used duct tape on diapers.
Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire.

Ha!  Who needs diapers?  All you need is duct tape, a plastic shopping sack, and either some paper towels or, if you like the kid in question, some old shop towels, preferably washed.

I love those sort of pictures. I can never decide whether I am horrified or impressed by some examples of ingenuity/idiocy(sp?)....

^^^^ I have seen similar setups for use as rural mail delivery vehicles.  The special run of the factory-modified Subaru wagons done all those years back are wearing out and I don't think there is a replacement.  I see on the picture that the pedals are connected too.

Men?  Not in this house.

I will identify a problem, and then check a book, internet, exploded diagram, or a This Old House clip to find out how to do it.  Off to the store, I get the parts and supplies and then I fix it to spec or better.

My wife uses toothpaste to fill nail holes.  She goes through more superglue and duct tape than home depot can supply.  *Shudder*

With two student drivers in my family at the moment, I really like the car idea..'cept with two steering wheels and two sets of brakes.

I like how you think.

I did that at the first couple of apartments I had. Works as well as spackling compound, at least short term until you get your deposit back from the landlord. ;)

Wiper motor burned out? I can fix that!

a friend of mine took the obvious next step in the evolution of the wiper repair and attached a bungee cord to the passengers side.

There was a wiring job like that in my last house powering a light about 20 feet away.  At least now, I know to just tie it into the back of the plug.

This is how our garage door is wired.  No idea why.

Looks like someone set up a car for mail delivery.
