To the vast majority of the rest of the world, someome thinking "better get my loaded gun" immediately after "heard a noise I don't recognize" is weird and scary.

That being said, a single mother friend was hearing weird noises under the floors at night in a rental house. She started finding dolls and toys hung on her fence shortly after. turns out there was a crawl space under a trap door under the porch that her landlord didn't tell her about and the homeless guy had broken in and had been living in there for weeks. But her first thought was to call the police and then move out, not grab her piece and start firing rounds into the floorboards.

Whenever I think of mercury I can't help but think of that group of kids in shittown USA wherever that found a barrel of mercury in an abandoned factory. They had a "mercury fight" in one of local restaurants and one kid dipped a cigarette in the barrel in smoked it. He lost one lung and half of the other, and most of the town had to be decontaminated.

What is it with people not staining fences? I’ve seen that a ton recently and I don’t know if it’s a new thing or if it’s because I’m just noticing etc.

Did HGTV decide weathered, gross pine boards are rustic flair or something?

Because if you live in a rainy climate like where I live you have to sand and re-stain your entire fence line every 2-3 years, and gently caress that.

Enh? Most people round these parts with oil furnaces just have the tank in the basement or above ground next to their house. Why do you need to bury them?

In our area it was common to bury your oil tank between the 1930s and 1950s, then bury them half full and pretend they never existed once the city finally laid natural gas lines in the neighborhood. The tanks would eventually rust and leak.

About 10 years ago one lady had a full tank on her property leak and she didn't know about it, having been the third or fourth owner of the house since it was built and rmthe tank had been long forgotten to the ages. She ended up with a 2 million dollar remediation bill because the oil had leaked under two of the neighboring properties and insurance would not cover it.

We moved into a '58 rancher last year and even though we found city records that there were gas lines installed the year it was built we still paid for a tank scan before we put in an offer.

The best thing about shutoffs that haven't been used in eons is that the rubber gaskets inside them can dry out and disintegrate, leaving you with an even bigger leak that you can't shut off if you don't know where the main is.

- Zero attention to aesthetics, just plopped down a gigantic box tumor on the side of a regular house
- Couldn't get an inspector willing to sign off on it, so instead he got licensed as an inspector and then signed off on his own work
- Put a window at floor level at the staircase landing, right where someone (e.g. a child) falling down the stairs would crash through them
- Put the thermostat where it will get direct sunlight
- Load-bearing drywall

That's the main stuff I remember. I'm sure there's more but I don't really care to refresh my memory.

Don't they use Goof as slang for pedophiles?

I cannot remember where I heard this, probably the forums.

It is used in the Canadian prison system and among first nations (obvious systemic racism/poverty/abuse cycle here) as slang for pedophile.

I wonder what happened? Did someone build their dream home and immediately go bankrupt? Was the city building a community center that for some reason was hastily converted to a mansion?

There have been a couple of recent massive, high profile ponzi scemes in BC. One of the biggest ones was operating from Victoria (near Oak Bay) before the dude disappeared. I wonder....

My neighborhood has this and they're all starting to fail. Just this year two houses on my block had to dig a new line out halfway into the street. The plumber said we'll know to replace ours when sewage starts backing up into our basement. :toot:

May I suggest that the answer is actually before sewage starts backing up into your basement?
