While in the Dominican Republic i wanted some leftover pizza from the fridge but didn't feel like eating it cold and didn't have any kind of hot plate or microwave. I tried using the heat from the back of the television to warm it up but it was taking too long so I used a luggage stand, coat hanger, and iron to make a cooking surface and heated those slices up

Thanks! I was proud of myself after spending days drinking, and having just gotten back from a huge Superbowl beach party including piles of drinks. If you're ever in the same situation, irons are shaped like pizza

Nobody has ever come up with a quick solution for anything else, MacGuyver-style?

I do cool shit like that all the time. Nothing pops in to my mind off the top of my head. There's a guy in my office whose brakes are out on his car so he stops with his e-brake... lol
