Corkscrew-shaped
Describing a screw as "corkscrew-shaped" appears to be an inaccurate circular definition. A screw is shaped like the screw of a corkscrew, but it is not shaped like a corkscrew. Hyacinth (discuss • contribs) 03:03, 1 December 2018 (UTC)

It also doesn't seem child appropriate, or, rather, one may hope that a child is more familiar with a screw than with a corkscrew (that a corkscrew may be explained to a child by pointing out the screw, rather than a screw being explained by drug and alcohol paraphernalia). Shop class may have dangers but still may be preferable to children chugging wine! Hyacinth (discuss • contribs) 05:38, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
