If all you have a hammer, then everything looks like a nail.

If all you have a hammer, then everything looks like a nail. But if all you have is a screwdriver or a wrench, this doesn't necessarily mean that everything looks like a screw or a bolt, because either of those items can be used as an improvised hammer. Also if you have two wrenches you can break a padlock without needing boltcutters. I'm not actually sure what the moral here is
@mcc When all you have is a hammer everything looks like a hammer. It's hammer time.

@mcc maybe its not having a hammer specifically (and everything looking like a nail), but the inability to adapt that makes you want to beat on everything and nails look easy

https://doomscroller.social/notes/ancenempdid801ui@mcc to be fair almost everything *is* a hammer if you need it to

@mcc @ifnotnow Oh, I wouldn't go that far. There was a song about hammering in the morning, hammering in the evening, all over this land.
It's the hammer of Justice
It's with the bell of Freedom...

@mcc I like the way you express it. In a way, any tool has a purpose, depending on how you use it. Its about being wise and possessing wisdom.

An old trick I learned early in my maintenance career, a hammer can open a lock. And working nightshift, one learns to become a locksmith. We have all access master keys, but locks are ticklish...

If you have a hammer, you can hold it by the heavy metal part, and then everything starts looking like a huge stone block which needs to be nudged into place.

@mcc neither am I but I'm taking it right to heart.

@mcc When I have a hammer all I see are missing dents screaming for freedom.

The real hammers were all the nails we improvised along the way?

@benroyce My dad loves picking up cheap flea market tools, and he’s given me a couple of those putty knives that have a tiny hammer on the handle end. They also have a flip-out Phillips bit, so you can effectively deal with any drywall nail/screw pops. I’m not sure I’d want to drive in a real nail with that tool though!
