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

74
- What if I refer to myself as a drill machine?

  That's allowed, but you better prove it

  This is not a drill! I repeat, this is not a drill!

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

  Wouldn't it be a drill bit driver?

- Can I borrow your car machine?

- 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?)

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.

  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.

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

- I appreciate you, and thank you.

- This is what I came here for.

They wrote this entire fucking thing for the joke at the end.

- I mean, isn't that how most jokes work?

No! It's a drill bit bit!
