As a simple homeowner who has had to deal with mold issues (not of my own making), the idea of laying loose rock around a tub in a humid bathroom is freaking me out a little. Okay, a lot. Why would you purposely do this to yourself?!

OP, seriously, how do you plan on cleaning the rocks? Spray them with bleach solution one a week or? Are they going to be loose 2-3" stones? Won't your foot just sink into them down to the pan or are they not intended to be walked on?

Stainless in commercial kitchens and hospitals looks clean because they need it to be sterile. And you're being a smug rear end in a top hat so no, I will not help you google things. Enjoy living in Fort Fingerprints. nice meltdown

value-brand cereal posted:What this the one who wanted to build an under ground rape dunge-I mean, computer server/storage room in the rock hard Texan ground? And he was digging it by hand until he could rent a digger? Or an entirely different dude? No, I'm not familiar with that one. This was a group of 5 or so goons who quit their jobs, sold everything they had, and drove out to this plot of land in the Texas desert they bought for four cents or something. It was miles and miles away from everything. They had no concept of zoning laws, rights-of-way, building codes, or what a hellscape the desert can be (they moved there in the early spring), but they were going to live off the grid and survive...somehow? By the end of the failed experiment, they were tired of being mocked by SA so they provided updates on another site (which was discovered, naturally) and they were begging for money and donations of food. Everyone drove back to their parents' homes after a few months and one poorly built shack to show for their efforts.

If only "women [didn't] play an unfair role in the home-buying process" all of this could have been avoided. All of it. Ugh, I'm so sick of women and their unfair roles!

Facebook Aunt posted:What? When someone is using the tub/shower nobody else gets to use the room, shower curtain or not. I'm not going to be soaking in the tub while a family member is making GBS threads 2 feet away, even if the shower curtain is closed so we don't actually see each other. I live in a 3 bed/1 bath cracker box. A thousand times this. We've kinda/sorta worked out an informal morning schedule. It really sucks. EDIT: also, we're going to be completely redoing the bathroom because the dumb-rear end-DIYers that owned the house before us massively hosed up re-tiling the shower and water has been leaking behind the wall for a few years now. We found out when the corner of the floor started getting "soft." Among the millions of little things they hosed up on, they also bridged a three inch gap in the drainpipe of the bathroom sink with duct tape. I loving loathe dumb-rear end-DIYers.
