Summary
ס'וועט גאָרנישט העלפן גאָרנישט העלפן Gar nicht helfen" or “gor nicht helfn” in Yiddish means "nothing helps" or "beyond help," expressing that a situation is hopeless or that efforts are futile, often with a sense of resignation or a recognition that intervention isn't useful. We do however have another option. Do what MacGyver did! He looked at the tools and things he had around himself and used what was at hand to solve the problem! Feeling news overload, be MacGyver!
