When using an axe to screw in a screw, make sure the axe is very sharp and comes to a very fine “flat point”. It works best to have at least one hand on the blade.
I had a boss that would hammer in screws. He said the threads were only there for removal. He generally knew his job well (he was a “just git it done” sorta person), but I had to stifle snide remarks frequently. Side note – that wouldn’t work these days with the cheap crap ch1nezium screws available today.

Especially if you can get someone else to do it.

You mean I shouldn’t use my lawn mower as a hedge trimmer?

Not so great for the task at hand, but really great at chopping up kibitzers.

I don’t think the homeowner “axed” for that much power.

I think someone hacked into the comic and screwed around with it?

Ummm, you just use the back of the axe to hammer (taking care not to hit yourself with the blade).

Looks manlier to other men when you screw in a screw with a manly axe

If he is putting that screw in – try a hammer.

It’s like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife.
