Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for February 06, 2021

They didn’t have to hammer home the point, although they did nail it.

A saw point, shear rudeness and a bit too blunt.

Are they drinking Rust-Oleum?

If he was angry, wouldn’t he have been a cross peen hammer.

They all went out drinking and got hammered!

Hammer time!

“When you’re a hammer, everything looks like a nail.’

New game. It’s Hammer, Scissors, Saw. Guess who always wins?

he’s a pretty hard-headed guy…

You’ll have to hammer that fact into em.

The sheer nerve of those shears!

Funny

They’re not awl there.

The first time I met this one fellow that used to work for me, he said, “I’m not the sharpest bulb in the tool shed.” That was my first indicator that he was correct.

What about the screwdriver?

Sure, they think they’re soooo sharp; they make their cutting remarks now. But hammer’s peen around the block a few times, he knows how dull they can become. He’ll still be pounding long after they’ve been scrapped.

“I see” said the blind man, as he picked up his hammer and saw.

Better watch what you say! He’s been known to hammer away all night!

I thought when you are a hammer, everything else is a nail.

“If I had a hammer… I’d hammer in the morning…”

He is a heavy hitter.

All of those sharp tools make me bleed, the hammer just makes my left thumb ache.

Bet everything looks like a nail to him.

Very true :)

Such cutting remarks! They must have hammer envy.

He may not be sharp, but he could pound you!

You don’t keep the really good tools in a shed anyway. Put them next to the “good” linen.

He hit the nail on the head….

They should watch out; he may blunt them for their rude remarks.

Ain’t that the plane truth !!

What a tool. :)

right?
