As the older "uncle" of the family, I get called to handle a lot of things, like unjamming a garbage disposal (you stick a broom handle in and push until it moves again) to changing a car tire (the instructions are LITERALLY printed on the body of the car) to very basic things like removing insects and spiders from the houses of adult families, to fixing electrical problems (breakers tripping.) And of course, fixing computers... miles and miles of fixing computers. Usually just installed programs that need to be removed or setup that needs to be completed, the age of viruses seem to be slowing but they still call at odd hours asking for help to remove a "virus" when it's just an app on borderless window mode.

I never thought of any of this as "man skills" I always thought this was just shit you had to do as an adult. I was prepared for helping kids just getting started, not grown-ass men and women with arms and legs and presumably careers with responsibilities.

I would say I'm surprised people can even wipe their own ass anymore but I have read some posts about people having to deal with boyfriends who think touching their own butt is "gay" so really I am not surprised by anything anymore. Is it any wonder why politics is so incredibly stupid? It's a reflection of larger society.
