Men and their tools

What is it with men and their tools?

We were having a cookout and Hubby mentioned that he had recently ventured over to the local hardware store. The guys lend forward, bowed their heads and were silent.

What is really amazing about men and their tools is,  that all men do not know how to use their tools. (This is not true of Hubby. He is very good with his tools.)

Evidence:
A guy a work with returned to school  in a cast. He cut his toe with his chainsaw! He had to have surgery on his tendons.  

Another guy I know decided to weed whack. He came out with googles, knee pads, long sleeve shirts and work boots.  Ten minutes later he was knocking on the door asking for a band aid.  He cut himself on the one place that was not protected.

I don't get it!

it's always either tools, sports of our outdoorsy stuff. ALWAYS one or the other, or 2 out of three... or... all three...

And it doesn't always make sense.
I don't get it either.
