I hope he didn't get away. Anything we can do to help black people actually get married, hopefully, before they have kids, should be encouraged. Yeah, that's me. I'm a dreamer.
#1- Looking at the size of her, you would think her first instinct would be to chew through it- #2- Thank you God! #8- Weren't these two just at the ballpark recently? #10- The dog version of Monty Pythons "100 yd dash for people with no sense of direction".
#3 - cows LOVE to chew on wiring. I was dumb enough to leave a trailer connected to the truck several times in an area with cows, only to come back and find the wiring from the truck to the trailer chewed up and trashed. Only took me several times before I got real careful about leaving any exposed wiring when parking in the field behind the barn. You can't leave anything open either - they'll stick their heads thru the window and chew on the seats too.
#3 was my favorite. I reckon if a cow gets curious enough, it will attempt to bite or eat anything. A few years back one of our neighbors saw a small white triangle underneath the tail of a big "mama cow'. She was tame enough to approach and upon further examination, it turned out to be white plastic. He starts to pull and the plastic just keeps coming out of the cow's ass until it is about a 1.5"w X 7' long white piece of construction plastic that had probably blown off a passing truck/trailer. I have pulled up in a field and start to feed cows and sometimes there will be one or more that will start licking the hood, fenders, doors, etc. of a truck and the next you thing you know, they will be trying to bite the flat surface and if not shooed away, they will scratch and dent your vehicle.
I'm not sure why #6 is interesting/funny. It looks like they cut the stucco too deep and also cut the plywood sheathing and Tyvek wrap. So when they pulled the stucco off, the plywood also came off which exposed the insulation and studs.
Wait...was there was NO plywood sheathing or Tyvek wrap?! Did the crappy builder nail the stucco mesh to the studs directly, then applied the stucco over the insulation? If so, then the entire house has to be stripped, properly sheathed, wrapped, and then stuccoed.
The house was probably built before Tyvek existed, judging by the height of floor joist. Do you need Tyvek where it's warm enough for palm trees to grow? Al_in_Ottawa
Tyvek wrap prevents air and water penetration driven by storm winds. Before Tyvek, we used tar-paper products. Palm trees means hurricanes and severe storms occur everywhere.
Plywood sheathing greatly increases structural strength, and especially prevents frame racking and shear. If you want to know why this is important, see the start of this video....
#2: "A trampoline? Shouldn't we talk about it first honey?" #4: Of course he's wearing a mask. Poor kid. I'm surprised he was allowed outside. #6: It's crazy that I live in Canada and I've encountered houses with less insulation than this. #8: I love that this is a thing. The wig snatcher is the real hero here. #10: Watching this makes me happy.
My old house in Calif was just like #6. No sheathing or wrap. Built in the 50s. The mudsills were set wet with 16d nails for anchors. Held up fine through the Loma Prieta earthquake and many others. Lucky I guess.

ReplyDeleteI could watch #8 all day!
ReplyDeleteThat is hilarious!
DeleteIt’s a setup. Saw the same couple do this at a ball game and the kid taking her wig.
Delete#8 God, I hope the kid got away...

DeleteI'm with you. The black culture in the US is something that could stand a few alterations and improvements.
DeleteNot a black or white thing to me, I just think anyone doing shit like that deserves a beat down.
Delete#5 . . . sled dog?
ReplyDeleteDead dog!
DeleteAlaskan flat tire.
Delete# 1. She put some ass into it

Well, at least #1 could laugh at herself.

ReplyDelete#2- Thank you God!

#8- Yep- See 8/25/2024 Friday GIF's- Same exact setup-
DeleteBrick straps?, we don't need no stinking brick straps!
ReplyDelete#3 wtf, is that cow chewing on wires?

ReplyDeleteDon't ever leave a tractor, or any equipment, in a field with cows.

I was wondering what their purpose was.
