    Anyone who calls it a “drill machine” should not be allowed to use power tools

      My wood shop teacher would insist it was “drill driver” and would bust your grade down if you only called it a drill.

            The bit is the tip of the drill and the shank is the other end.

      In denmark we call it a “boremaskine”, literally “drilling machine”…

        Same in Sweden; “borrmaskin”

        Though it’s still fine to say just “borr” (drill) for it, like “kan du sträcka mig borren?” (Can you hand me the drill?)

          In Danish, “bor” only refers the drill bit. If you asked someone “kan du række mig boret” you would be handed the drill bit, or possibly be pointed towards the table (bord/bordet, with silent d).

          Same in German: “Bohrmaschine”.

          Although the shorthand version is “Bohrer”, not “Bohr”.

    Openly admitting to being pedantic. That said, here we go: it’s a DRIVER, the end is the CHUCK, which holds the SHANK of the BIT, which can be a DRILL.

    I understand it’s a setup to the punchline, and nobody actually gives a shit.

      A drill and a driver are separate tools. You can fit driver bits in a drill’s chuck, but it’s not its intended purpose. A driver is meant specifically to drive screws, and it’s better at the job than a drill.

        Most tools today are drill driver combo devices, they do both jobs well.

        While this is only semantics and based on nothing more than my preference, I would argue that a drill is a type of driver. If you call it a drill driver, I might get upset though.

          i disagree with that, you can use a handheld drill to drive screws but that’s not what it’s for, it’s for making holes in shit with drill bits. you can also buy little sanding discs for your handheld drill but nobody’s calling it a drill sander

About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.
