Love these definitions! Wish I had them back in college, but I think you missed another.

Band Saw - Used to scare the crap out of the unfortunate soul who is using it when the saw breaks free and starts bunching up with a LOUD squeeeeeeal. Also a very nice french bread slicer.

I must have about 50 Dammit Tools...about 25 of them are lost in the basement walls after throwing them across the room...Some times they are called GOD Dammit Tools (Great On Drywall)...

I didn't know my tools could do all of that! I feel like I'm not getting the most out of my tools now.

On the Farm, when we would be working on a tractor or combine, my dad used to get mad a say he needed to make a minor adjustment. He would then pick up the 8 pound sledge hammer and beat the crap out of something. Then he would go back to work.
