Nearly every household has a pair of nail clippers. These handy tools are primarily used for trimming nails, and sometimes even snipping thread. But have you ever noticed the small round hole on some nail clippers? You might be surprised to learn it has a few clever uses! Many people don’t know about this hidden feature, but once you understand its purpose, you’ll want to give it a try. Let’s explore what it can do!
One use for the small hole is to attach a keychain to your nail clippers. By securing it with a keychain, you can keep the clippers with your keys, ensuring you’ll never misplace them (unless all your keys go missing). Some nail clippers even come with a small chain specifically for this purpose. However, those chains can sometimes detach easily, so it’s often better to attach a keychain directly through the hole for a more secure hold.
The small hole can also help with wire bending. By threading wire through it, you gain extra leverage to bend the wire with ease, reducing the effort needed. This trick is especially helpful when you need to bend or break wire without putting too much strain on your fingers.
Another handy feature of nail clippers is the small metal piece that often surrounds the hole. This piece can be used for cleaning dirt from under your nails but also doubles as a mini screwdriver for small screws. It can save you in a pinch when you don’t have the right tools on hand—just give the screw a few turns, and it’ll loosen up.
Lastly, the sharp edge of the nail file on your clippers can even be used to slice through packing tape on boxes. With these tips, you can get much more out of your nail clippers than just trimming nails!
Co-host of ‘The View’ triggers Matthew McConaughey, his reply is very unexpected
A vocal supporter of “responsible gun ownership,” Matthew McConaughey got into a heated argument with Joy Behar of The View when she questioned the actor’s anti-gun views.
During his appearance on the show, McConaughey talked about the value of his career as a father of three and promoted his children’s book Just Because. The actor was praised by co-host Sunny Hostin for being “so outspoken against violence, and gun violence in particular” after she veered off course.
You thought about running for Texas governor in 2021, but ultimately decided to put your family first. Do you believe holding public office will be in your future? Hostin enquired.
“Yes, if that’s where I think I can be most useful,” the Interstellar actor answered. “At this time, I want to be the most helpful father I can be.”
“Do you think you could get elected in Texas being anti-gun?” Behan asked again.
“One thing about me and politics, to give you a direct statement right there, is me playing a game I’m not interested in playing,” McConaughey said, pointing a finger at Behar.
“Okay, don’t do it,” Behar said, attempting to diffuse the situation by stating, “I did want to say that I’ve done a lot of research in terms of your advocacy, and I don’t think you’re pro-gun responsibility and legislation.”
At a White House meeting after the 2022 Robb Elementary School tragedy in Uvalde, Texas, where an 18-year-old former student killed 19 pupils and two teachers, McConaughey urged people to “renegotiate our wants from our needs.”
Background checks and responsible ownership are essential. The age requirement to purchase an AR-15 rifle needs to be raised to 21. A waiting time is required for such firearms. Red flag rules are necessary, and those who violate them should face repercussions; these are tactical, sensible, and realistic regulations, the speaker stated.
“Responsible gun owners are fed up with the Second Amendment being abused and hijacked by some deranged individuals,” the Oscar-winning actor continued.
The actor and his spouse, Camila Alves, started the Greenlights Grant Initiative in the wake of the horrific event with the intention of “ensuring the well-being of our children and creating safer school environments.”
Along with McConaughey, Alves is the parent of three children: Levi, 15, Vida, 13, and Livingston, 10.
