I've known people IRL who have acted badly towards me; attempts at ridicule are the most common. One guy threatened to beat me up. It's due to their intense envy. This is the first time that I've observed this behavior on the internet. Uneducated, thinks he knows-it-all, alcoholic, envious of others who show a bit of aptitude, have made many good decisions in their life, and have worked hard to make a good life for themselves and their family. I consider The Blob to be a serious danger to society. |

Nah. He's only dangerous when he's half in the bag and decides to go for a ride with his friend. Otherwise, he's just a loud mouth drunk. |

It has to be up to two dozen times now, where The Blob has retardedly claimed that my experiment to raise the temperature of a room so I could do some epoxy work was 'my heating system'. Wrong-o. This is my heating system:

I’m pretty sure that the rain patterns in Florida are Gods doing not developers.

Holy shit, I hope that's a photohack.
The thing about posts (columns), that under a gravity load, if they fail, they fail explosively. Beams fail slowly. I got a call from a contractor about 15 years ago, a gruff older guy, upset that the county inspector told him to "get an engineer". I agreed to meet him at the site. He had built a one-room, main story addition on the back of a house, above a tall basement. I parked on the street and walked down the slope into the back yard. The contractor was there along with the county inspector. The addition was way up in the air- looked like 17' but must have been shorter. As I got closer I noticed the two columns that were supporting it and almost shit my pants. The columns were two bricks wide, alternating directions with each course. I asked the contractor if there was any rebar in the posts. He had no idea what I was talking about, so his non-answer was "no". Unreinforced masonry column, 8" nominal width, Code allows a maximum height of 4x width, or 32". This was at least six times that. Then I heard a window in the addition open. A woman stuck her head out to access what was going on in her backyard. I yelled up to her to get herself out of the room, into the main part of the house, make sure there was no one else in there, then close the door to it- this was a dangerous situation and I was condemning the addition. The contractor, my would-be client, was obviously pissed. The county inspector was relieved. I told the contractor to replace the bricks with 6x6 timbers immediately. |
