MacGayver 

To use a combination of MacGyver-like and homosexual skills (playbill collecting, dress making, make-overs) to get out of any situation.

This can include using a single stick of gum to repair a dress on the red carpet, turning a hungover girlfriend into a presentable hottie by re-fashioning her scarf in to a slutty top or sashaying past a long entrance line at any club.

So I took my shoelaces, tied them together, lassoed the gas petal (with a paperclip), slid a wrench down it (to change the direction of force), threaded it through the steering wheel, and attached it to the door handle, so when I opened the car door and jumped out, the force from opening the door would cause the car to let on the gas and drive towards the men with the bazookas, letting me escape.”
