is there ever gonna be a study for how retarded boomer tradies were? what prevented them from putting this receptacle in the next bay over instead of chopping up what likely was load bearing? this wall i removed was from the 60s, original house was from the 20s. make it make sense to a young buck like me.
>>2964473yo nigga i've got the same 1940's construction. shits scabbed together like yolo fuck it we're gonna make this entire wall out of scabbed boards fuck you. oh you want to use dimensional lumber on this wall? fuck you.and it's stronger than steel.
>>2964474oh can't forget the 8 inch sub floors everywhere that single handily keep 12 inch recip saw blade manufacturers in business.
>>2964474I lived in a place that had plaster walls. Under the drywall that is. We did a reno the kitchen and took it down to the studs. There was a layer of drywall under like 4 layers of paint. The bottom layer was a sea foam green color. Under the drywall was a layer of wallpaper, a few layers of paint, and then plaster.
>>2964473>boomer tradiesThis is slander. Fuck ups like your picrel weren't done by tradesmen but by boomer DIYers.
Lead poisoning. Oligarchs deliberately poisoned the world with leaded gasoline to dumb down the masses.
>>2964473what a load of presentism. lets see what people in 100 years think of your work.
>>2964473yeah i do a lot of remodels and some of the houses from like the 70/80s are just fucked
>>2964492they'll curse me all the same but wont know the whole story. this was the story of a lazy faggot who couldnt cut out 1sq foot of wall to put a box in a good spot. its obvious if you take a gander around the other side of the wall and down below that this was possible and the better choice that cutting up a bearing column.
>>2964473>make it make sense to a young buck like me.you live in a country populated for generatoins by morons
>>2964491>deliberatelyNo, they didn't.
>>2964627>hurrdurr should we use cheap plentiful harmless ethanol or organic lead as an antiknock agent?Deliberately. There is no rational non-malicious explanation for the addition of tetraethyl-lead to gasoline. Simple as.
>>2964748>no rational non-malicious explanationIt was cheaper and easier than the alternatives. Same reason they had that little razor blade slot in medicine cabinets. Or just dumped garbage in convenient locations without lining them. Or just burned whatever and allowed it to pollute the air. Or put used oil into storm drains. Or developed disposable plates and cups. The list goes on and on.
>>2964783nigga id you willingly participate in something because its convenient rather than thought through, you are not much smarter than a nigger.
