  1. I don't know what I'm doing on any of this stuff so I make it up as I go. I enjoy it though. One more pic with the casing added.
  2. First time I've ever installed a door. Turned out pretty damn good for an amateur. A few other progress pics.

    That's right. While wearing a blazer with the tags sewn on the sleeve.

    Tried Brisket & Rice for lunch today. Good stuff and not too far from me. I actually figured Patricio Swayze was probably there, but I forgot the Surly call sign. Muledick? Is that what we're supposed to yell?
  5. It felt pretty damn good outside tonight. Checked the temp and it said 99 heat index still. Didn't feel like that to me. Maybe I'm just turning into a lizard.
  6. Yeah just did that a few weeks ago.
  7. Windows and doors are good. I do have a couple holes in the outside siding where I'm installing outlet boxes and just haven't finished yet. That may be causing it. Also need to seal up around the vents I think. No issues last night so not sure why the night before was so bad.
  8. So for some reason a few of my AC vents have started collecting condensation and dripping. Haven't had that happen in this house before. Not sure if it's just the crazy humidity or what.
  9. I don't use food delivery services. I've only ridden in an Uber once when our friends were paying for it. I've never seen Game of Thrones. I couldn't care less about celebrities.
  10. We did quartzite with a leathered finish which looks awesome. Quartz is manmade and I wanted to like it, but I just didn't. The Taj Mahal Deadshank posted was one of our options. We ended up with Mont Blanc which was more white and has blue and green veining. We looked at more slabs than I can even remember. One thing we found was that even the same color of slabs were extremely different from one place to the next. Mont Blanc was not consistent at all to the point that I think some were probably mislabeled. Granite seems to be more consistent.
  11. I don't know how car leasing works. I assume this is pissing a huge amount of cash down the drain though.
  12. Perception of our program? Literally all this thread does is shit on programs like ours. But yeah, a claim to a fake title really makes a difference. Sure. If only we didn't claim this fake title maybe we'd finally be taken seriously.
  13. I literally don't give a single fuck about whether it's claimed or not. I didn't claim it and have no influence on whether or not it's claimed. There are all kinds of bullshit claims all over college football, but yeah let's jump on this one as if it's somehow unique. Fuck you with that hypocritical horseshit.
  14. No, actually I don't. It happens all the time. It doesn't affect anything.
  15. Lol you should worry about more important things that actually matter.
  16. Is it embarrassing? To you? Why? Who gives a fuck? It's all made up bullshit.
  17. I'm not sure anyone is saying that. It's likely getting a lot shittier though. So that's cool I guess.
  18. Mine was built in 1989. It's not fancy, but it gets the job done. It's a pain in the ass and needs to be renovated soon, but I'm still glad I'm not dropping $100K+ on a new one. I don't give a fuck about sun shelfs and pool chillers.
  19. I get it. Our time here is a relative blip on the radar. I don't really give a fuck what happened a billion years ago though. I care about what's happening right now. It's becoming overwhelmingly obvious that relatively short-term freak weather occurrences are becoming relatively long-term trends. I'm not sure how anyone can deny that at this point.
  20. Same. I worry about my kids though. Every generation going forward is kind of screwed.
  21. All of it is extremely depressing to me. I used to have this naive belief that in the face of a real, global crisis, humanity would come together and solve the problem. That grown ups would take charge and science and technology would come through. The handling of Covid erased that fantasy. We are fucked. Nothing meaningful will be done and even if it was it's likely too late to matter. Maybe that's a shitty way to look at it. I honestly try not to think about it and just live life.
