My wife knows how to load the chuck, but she's definitely gonna break a bit

My wife knows how to use, and has handled most of my tools, including power tools .... she just doesn't like any of them.

She’s a Bosch girl while you’re a DeWalt guy. It happens

Can you make it anymore obvious?

And all of her friends, said they were fools
They had a problem with his yellow tools.

He had a bad jigsaw
She wanted a multi tool
It was a Makita or else

What more can I say 🎶

To be fair, mine used to be an avid power tool user, but the strokes changed that. Intelligence + brain damage can lead to some interesting results.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 18 points 2 days ago

My condolences to you and your partner .... and your power tools

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

The only tool my wife knows how to use is me. Single handily even.

[–] deepus@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

At least she knows how, i shown my wife like 4 times over the last year and she still cant do it!

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 23 points 2 days ago (1 children)

She can, she just wants you to do it.

Anyone who knows how would either do it themselves because it's ten times the time to get someone else to do it or would get someone else do everything. My wife knows how. She doesn't want to do it, so she has me do those tasks.

Did you intend to contradict yourself?

Clarified. I'm sick and am not firing on all cylinders.
