Singles girls had different motivating factors for watching "MacGyver" as we were growing up. Perhaps we enjoyed seeing a young Teri Hatcher star as the plucky Penny Parker. Perhaps (and most likely) we had a crush on Richard Dean Anderson, mullet and all, as the title role. (He's the only mullet exception we'll allow just as Tom Selleck is our only mustache exception.)
Whatever it was, one thing is for certain: single girls like MacGyver's ingenuity and resourcefulness at using everyday items to get himself out of perilous and, oftentimes, life-threatening situations.
Examples: Oh no! MacGyver is stuck in a mine and needs to create an explosion with just bubble gum and a paper clip? No problem! Yikes! MacGyver is trapped in a cage over a fiery pit and needs to unlatch the door using a tube sock and dental floss? Consider it done!
These MacGyverisms left such an impression on us, most single girls don't even realize we have been MacGyver-ing ourselves out of dangerous scenarios for most of our lives.
Dangerous scenario: Ack! Out and about when the strap to our camisole breaks!
MacGyver solution: A-ha! A safety pin! (No safety pin? A-ha, an earring!)
Dangerous scenario: Horrors! A giant pimple has erupted on our face and we are out of Clearasil!
MacGyver solution: A-ha! Toothpaste!
Dangerous scenario: NO! We wake up and that giant, RED pimple is still on our face! (And yes, we are STILL out of Clearasil.)
MacGyver solution: A-ha! Visine drops!
Dangerous scenario: Ugh! Got into a brawl with our guy's bitchy ex-girlfriend, cut our knuckles open punching her ugly face and we're completely out of rubbing alcohol!
MacGyver solution: Alcohol? Did someone say alcohol? A-ha! Popov vodka (where did THAT come from?) in the freezer! (Some for me, some for the wounds...)
Dangerous scenario: Zoiks! We have a giant piece of chicken/spinach stuck in our teeth!
MacGyver solution: A-ha! That boring dude's business card!
Dangerous scenario: Eeks! That bra we can only wear with THIS dress is missing!
MacGyver solution: A-ha! Band-aids! (Note: only to be applied with the smaller-chested.)
Thanks to MacGyver, us single girls have learned how to make do with the contents of our pockets and our handbags.
Trying to escape from a bad date? What would MacGyver do with duct tape, tweezers and a bobby pin?
