Hampton Roads is crazy humid sometimes. If the moisture proofing isn't up to snuff, stuff is going to go real moldy real quick.

Oh geeze, we had mold in our house and the landlord had to cut a chunk of the wall out and replace it. They should probably just sacrifice the haus to the spores and get out while they have their lungs

I would honestly be not at all surprised to find the stuff on the siding is just surface level visible stuff, and that the interior of the walls are turbo hosed. I've seen poorly done stuff just absolutely eaten up by mold, to the point where it would probably be more efficient to just burn it to the ground and start fresh.

My experience with home DIYers is that "looks right" is always going to be good enough and 3 years later when it's falling apart from normal wear and tear they'll yell about people being too rough on the floor/fixtures/sinks etc.

Yeah how it usually goes with mold issues, if the mold is visible to you outside of the wall, you don't want to know what it looks like inside the wall.

I recently saw mold growing on steel racking, which had me in full “oh, gently caress, it’s everywhere” mode. If you see that you basically have a cronenberg movie happening inside your walls and ventilation system.

When we lived in Guam, a friend of ours down the street went to hang a picture right after they moved in. She hit the nail and half the wall collapsed.

Yep. We lived in a particularly bad shithole with a slumlord landlord for a bit. "...poo poo, there's mold on the bathroom tiling. That's....not good." And then the bathroom floor started collapsing into the open foundation!

I feel like this is the least bad place to ask because it comes up in a number of embarrassing goon situations, what is the etymology of the phrase "horny on main?" Is it acceptable to be "horny on alt?" What?

A great example is permabanned former SA moderator Wark Say having a Twitter account directly tied to his name (it was literally WarkSaySA) and he retweeted loads of anime porn including lots of stuff with underage teenagers, whereas if he just used that account for following other SA posters and had an alt account for his weird porn poo poo everyone would have been none the wiser and he'd still be modding here.

Adjust lasers to FUN!





A lot of the funniness of groverhouse comes from the fact that it was so obviously stupid but no one was allowed to make fun of it because Grover was a mod. It was only once GBS 2.0 happened that people were allowed to make jokes about it. It's still funny to outsiders, but realistically the whole thing is a elaborate goon injoke. It's still funny, but only in retrospect.
