Who What Now posted:You should probably reread the last few pages where the OP talks about how he's not building the bathroom for him, but for resale value because women and their crazy vaginas can't resist a good tub. op is building a nest to attract a mate, not unlike several species of birds and fish. This is nature. This is evolution.

I guess the shiny wet rocks will work if he's trying to attract a bowerbird, but the color scheme is all wrong. Shouldn't he go with blue? And maybe some tasteful displays of feathers and plastic bits?

Gee, he's deleting posts? And here I thought:bEatmstrJ posted:I can handle the wrath of the internet. In between all the naysayers there are some smart people on this forum who certainly know more than I do about many things. Things like joists! And women! I thought you could take the mold-encouraging heat, OP. Edit: sorry, I misunderstood and it's the zip line goon who deleted posts. I still think the quote stands given how the OP bounced the moment he got critique over his bigotry (he had threatened to bounce earlier over the DIY comments).

Crotch Fruit posted:I spend maybe 15 min in my bathroom each morning, just enough to poo poo, shower, shave and run out of there. My wife on the other hand spends about a half hour each morning. When house hunting, about all I cared about was the correct number of rooms and no obvious fire hazards, we looked at countless homes trying to decide and I would have gladly settled for about a dozen of the homes, my wife was far more picky and sure enough her primary concerns were the kitchen and bathroom. I for one would be just fine making GBS threads in a 5 gallon bucket in a hole over the crawlspace but at least in my scenario, my wife was more selective. Nice meltdown.

Those are the people that dropped out of engineering school after the first semester of calculus and transferred into business school. They still like to think they know how engineering works and they are good at repeating buzzwords like "synergy".

Slugworth posted:I still don't understand what a sales engineer is. The guy from Office Space who gets t-boned? They're sales people that have the skills to bullshit both managers and engineers. The other possibility in the broader category of "sales engineer" is usually called a "field applications engineer". These are actual engineers that have the job of either teaching the customer's engineers the realities of the bullshit their managers just bought or designing example systems, etc. A lot of tech companies call them "product evangelists" these days because their main duties are teaching other engineers/running workshops/etc.

Sounds like a PPM without any actual skills, perhaps analogous to "Financial Advisors" who don't want you to know that they're just feature sales people with GEDs and a weekend of product training.

The FYAD thread on the zip line was better anyway, and they quoted a bunch of the posts and pictures. Also I can't believe no one has mentioned the basement death pool that I'm pretty sure was also in DIY.

I'm sad that the picture with all the skull and crossbones that someone added to the picture over all the (many) possible electrocution dangers is lost to the ages. Though you can still clearly see the dangling light fixture and the breaker box in the background.

They love the extra stimulation during shower sexytime.
