If two grown men can't make a pervert happy for a few minutes in order to watch a film about zombies, then maybe we should all just move to Iran!

My wife is in love with the idea of a solarium. The utility room, as it's quite warm due to the large amount of windows, has an arm chair crammed in there because SUN.
What does utility room in this context mean? I'm used to utility room being the place where utilities are, such as the furnace and water heater. You know, a plant room apparently.

Why are you all putting utilities in your plant rooms and windows in your furnace rooms??

I have some concerning information for you about log uniformity I'm afraid.

It feels like the cost density model for this particular home would just be a giant red mass in the ground, no?

This thread is unreasonably good
No, it honestly merits mention - Goons usually are terrible at joke songs/poems/whatever. Uniformly awful. But all of these have been great. The hive mind has truly found its muse.

Actually building a house is amazing. Who cares about a few cock ups. I’m a little confused by the timeline of this thread so forgive me if you’ve already gone over this but—

How long has this project actually been going on?

Do you have a full-time job outside of building your house?

Paying somebody else to redo my house took way too long and was exhausting enough. Can’t imagine building one from the ground up myself.

Oh yeah, for the record, I think OP gets an undue amount of poo poo, but he takes it well, and it's all in good fun. I'm impressed by the whole undertaking.

I wonder how much it would cost 99 to hire an expert to design and implement this sort of heating system, given its complexity I can't imagine it would be cheap.
This is why if I ever need an appendectomy, I'm doing it myself.

It's 119 characters long, so it won't fit unfortunately.
What if we drove 40 foot piles beneath the title to support the extra characters?

Tiling looks exactly like the kind of fiddly bullshit that would slowly drive me insane as I try to line up everything juuuust right until I'm halfway through (after 5 false starts where I caught my mistake) and I realize I hosed up and my eye twitches then I'm "here's johnny!"'ing the entire wall with a sledgehammer.

I'll just pay a dude
Don't forget you also have to move relatively quickly before your cement starts to cure, leading to poor adhesion!

I wouldn't mind the finickiness if I wasn't racing against time.
