Dana, just remember to keep the salt lines in place and get your water blessed.
It'll be like fire drill - only with demons.
Lydia: Its removal from Burma is a felony and when triggered it has the power to melt human eyeballs.
Giles: In that case I've severely underpriced it.
'Potential'
Natter 54: Right here, dammit.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
The manliness quiz appears to believe that manliness is something out of GQ magazine. Hook up an HDTV? Social class should not inform masculinity like that.
(Don't get me started on why guns = masculinity is an attitude that needs to be pistol-whipped.)
The responsibility thing -- I score basically 20/20, inasmuch as the things I don't know off the top of my head are the things I know how to learn.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
ION, is there anything cooler than a metal shark-stapler? How about a metal dinosaur staple-remover? [link]

I'm going to say the hamster shredder. Hamster-*powered*, that is.

I woulda' mentioned that, except it's more of a conceptual art office supply sort of thing. I think.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I am 17/25 "manly" and 100% self-sufficient by those standards. I did count CPR on a dummy. I used to keep up my certification, but my life has been a bit too complicated for the last few years. (By the way, the latest thing I saw on CPR said, "forget about rescue breathing." It's fine if you have someone else doing it, but the doctor talking about it said it takes too much time away from compressions.)
I thought real men never retouched photos, because they're manly men and only want the unvarnished truth.
I have never
Rescued a boater
Framed a wall (I've held things while someone else was framing a wall.)
Backed up a trailer (Lord, no. Most people are a bit unnerved by my backing up a car. I've yelled "No, no, not that way" at someone else backing up a trailer.)
Used a torque wrench (I leave proper torque to people who are manlier than I am.)
Hooked up an HDTV (I assume it would take about the same amount of cursing and throwing things as setting up other electronics.)
Extended my wireless network (I have a small house. Where would I extend to?)
Bled brakes (I leave brakes to manlier people.)
Paddled a canoe (I assume they mean "in a way that makes the canoe go forward".)

Oh, and not only have I backed up a trailer, I've parallel-parked a car and trailer. And I've backed up a tractor with two trailers. The kind that have four wheels and their own steering.
The pluses that come from growing up on a farm. OTOH, herding cows on a farm is where I came up with my "waving and shouting" monkey attack contingency plan....

I wonder if I get extra points for backing up 5 trailers chained together?
