Wait, weren't mirrors what got Snow White into trouble in the first place?
or was that Sleeping Beauty?-I don't remember, My childhood was so long ago which is why I stay away from mirrors.

It's the dwarves that get me into trouble. You know, Drinky, Feely, Sleazy, and all those other guys. They are just too cute to resist.

My local DIY store is selling a new set of power tools.
Now, it doesn't actually say Power Tools for Women, but there's a picture of a woman on the box. And the tools are slightly down-scaled. And - no kidding - they are all trimmed in pink.
Edited to add a picture of the drill.

Add a rubber band around the handles and Bingo! You got a roach clip!
My reality and yours are quite different.
I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

PLIERS: Used to round off bolt heads. Sometimes used in the creation of blood-blisters. The tool most often used by all women. can also be used as hammer
BELT SANDER: An electric sanding tool commonly used to convert minor touch-up jobs into major refinishing jobs. can also be used as hammer
HACKSAW: One of a family of cutting tools built on the Ouija board principle. It transforms human energy into a crooked, unpredictable motion, and the more you attempt to influence its course, the more dismal your future becomes. can also be used as hammer
VISE-GRIPS: Generally used after pliers to completely round off bolt heads. If nothing else is available, they can also be used to Transfer intense welding heat to the palm of your hand. can also be used as hammer
OXYACETYLENE TORCH: Used almost entirely for lighting various flammable objects in your shop on fire. Also handy for igniting the grease inside the wheel hub you want the bearing race out of. can also be used as hammer
TABLE SAW: A large stationary power tool commonly used to launch wood projectiles for testing wall integrity. can also be used as hammer
E-Z OUT BOLT AND STUD EXTRACTOR: A tool ten times harder than any known drill bit that snaps neatly off in bolt holes thereby ending any possible future use.can also be used as hammer
RADIAL ARM SAW: A large stationary power saw primarily used by most shops to scare neophytes into choosing another line of work. can also be used as hammer
TWO-TON ENGINE HOIST: A tool for testing the maximum tensile strength of everything you forgot to disconnect. can also be used as hammer
CRAFTSMAN 1/2 x 24-INCH SCREWDRIVER: A very large pry bar that inexplicably has an accurately machined screwdriver tip on the end opposite the handle. can also be used as hammer
PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER: Normally used to stab the vacuum seals under lids and for opening old-style paper-and-tin oil cans and splashing oil on your shirt; but can also be used, as the name implies, to strip out Phillips screw heads. Women excel at using this tool. can also be used as hammer
STRAIGHT SCREWDRIVER: A tool for opening paint cans. Sometimes used to convert common slotted screws into non-removable screws. can also be used as hammer
AIR COMPRESSOR: A machine that takes energy produced in a coal-burning power plant 200 miles away and transforms it into compressed air that travels by hose to a ChicagoPneumatic impact wrench that grips rusty bolts which were last over tightened 30 years ago by someone at Ford, and instantly rounds off their heads. Also used to quickly snap off lug nuts. can also be used as hammer
PRY BAR: A tool used to crumple the metal surrounding that clip or bracket you needed to remove in order to replace a 50 cent part. can also be used as hammer
HOSE CUTTER: A tool used to make hoses too short. can also be used as hammer
HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent the object we are trying to hit. Women primarily use it to make gaping holes in walls when hanging pictures.
MECHANIC'S KNIFE: Used to open and slice through the contents of cardboard cartons delivered to your front door; works particularly well on contents such as seats, vinyl records, liquids in plastic bottles, collector magazines,refund checks, and rubber or plastic parts. Especially useful for slicing workclothes, but only while in use. can also be used as hammer
And of course the old....
GODDAMMIT TOOL: Any handy tool that you grab and throw across the garage while yelling "GODDAMMIT" at the top of your lungs. It is also, most often, - the next tool that you will need.

I would consider buying those... because it would keep my dad and brother from walking off with MY tools!

Well I see by your circular saw skills you could use one named "Handy"
OH SNAP....we need a snare drum here.

...and for the record, my duct tape is purple
Then these will appeal to you.
5. Making mince-meat out of thumbs
Streaker used a pry bar and a hammer to make the last part of his thumb into six seperate pieces.....
10. A thought-provoking item - What the hell is a "peen" anyway?
It's something to do with your balls, right?
The only thing I have ever done that was really creative with my circular saws, is to cut the end off of the electrical cord. Lots of really pretty nice sparks when you do that, and then it doesn't go around anymore...
