  1. I don’t know about learning the language but when you run into an issue there’ll be a heavily accented Indian dude with a thick mustache and neon pastel graphics that has all the answers in a YouTube video.  That incredibly helpful dude and Stack Overflow got me through grad school.

    The entire point is the 1970s vibe. There is also a woman involved and she is very anti removing the paneling because reasons that aren’t even clear to me. 

    Probably because she expects all kinds of dick-waving confidence until she hears a sharp crack, a loud curse, and comes into the room as you stare at a long crack in the panel.  There’s always that one nail that’s a total cast iron bitch

  4. It’ll come with a paper template so you can absolutely be sure.  But yeah these things are full of compromises, and I was ready to nuke Samsung when one of ours had to be sent in for service at only 6 months old…getting the bitch in/out of those metal u-brackets is scary when you can’t really reach back there.  

    Provided no miracles you’ve got 3 choices:  ass ton of good toggles, take wall apart to run a 2x4 behind the paneling, or cut a strip of 3/4” plywood to run on top of the paneling and just live with it being a little proud.  

    Upside to taking the wall apart is it’ll make it much easier to run that wire behind there to the breakout box so you can hide it.  

  5. We’ve got a couple of Frames, and yeah those two-piece mounts are way different…but a huge part of why you pay a premium for them.  They’re also nerve wracking trying to snap the tv into/out of.  

    So there are absolutely no studs that’d cross behind any of the holes in either mount?  I assume your stud finder works on wood paneling and you double checked by measuring 16” centers starting from that outlet box down there (whichever side the stud is on).

    What’s behind that paneling…anything?  Pop the cover off that outlet to see if you can verify how thick it is and what, if anything, is behind it.  

    As you noted, the tv itself isn’t that heavy since all the guts are in the OneConnect breakout box.  If that paneling is actually mounted to studs securely, I’d like to think a gang of good toggles would work…but obviously having at least one mount hit a stud would be peace of mind  

    The best anchors I’ve seen are WingIts, though they require using a special 3/4” bit to put the hole (don’t use a spade bit on that nice wood).  

    Otherwise, per usual, best reply is the first:  get serious by running a 2x4 horizontally and call it a day.

  6. Pokes won in dramatic fashion…walkoff grand slam B10.  I’d written them off when we were down 3 in B8.   My fault, this team can be so hot/cold but Holliday seems to love trying to time a hot streak heading into the post season…sometimes with disastrous results.

    WTF happened to TCU?  And WVU just keeps going.  And fuck OU.

    This is what happens when you allow a pool builder without a medical license to name an issue. Cancer occurs when the body's cells grow uncontrollably and spread to other parts of the body. I maintain, based on the photographic evidence provided above, that these concrete pools suffer from concrete fracture i.e. a crack or a break and not "cancer," because although Mr. Bo Barnett avows that the pools are terminal and cannot be treated, cancer does not necessarily require removal of the patient.

    UK boards melting  hard, lulz. Seeing aggy fans freak and getting the AD to revoke Stoops offer has their bourbon soaked brain cells working overtime. This shit is always amusing when its not your team. 

    Don’t forget the blue blood modifier and the insufferable fan bonus.  

    I was at OSU, back when that meant something and tickets were hard to come by.  Walked into the old GIA as a clueless freshman in 98, left with my ears ringing and a holy shit face.  Damn I miss the old GIA.

    So I have a bit of schadenfreude to see Kentucky sweat a bit (sorry Underdog)
