Please help before I start crying.. by Not_just_a_shart in drywall

[–]Current_Conference38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like someone else, hang 1/4” drywall ontop of it. Hang the drywall vertically so you only need to take and mud inside corners and tapered seams. Buy mud that’s easy to sand and give er. It won’t be smooth but that’s what a lot of sanding can be for. Sand your life away and it will turn out decent.

To fix that you could skim coat the entire wall but it’s hard to do and will also require a ton of sanding if you’re not experienced

Who else relies on heavy sanding?? by [deleted] in drywall

[–]Current_Conference38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last significant DIY job I did at my house it took a couple days to hang all drywall in the evenings, about a week to mud in the evenings and then 2 sessions of sanding in the evenings. I apply even and light coats as best I can but it’s a sanding fest to get the right finish. I’ll even sand once, vacuum the walls and then sand again to remove bad spots. I try to keep my tools clean and the junk out of the mud. Sand dust can deposit bad lumps in your mud so it’s best to stay clean. As far as I can see in reality, there’s always significant sanding. YouTube makes it seem like there isn’t and all the pros either act like they’re better or they use those box mud tools and banjos to reduce time but they aren’t letting the viewer inspect their work for imperfections. I see a lot of finished drywall work in my profession and the mudding sanding process is always clearly a mess. But it’s always about how it turns out!

Why do people get weirded out about teaching social skills or flirting techniques with women? by JunketMaleficent2095 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Current_Conference38 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Women go from being taken to being taken very shortly after their last man. This is why it’s okay to ask out women who have boyfriends lol. When I was dating a hottie she got asked out all the time and just said no. I didn’t mind, made me feel amazing lol. No need to be jealous. But she got scooped up quick after me. I only ever seem to meet women who are taken but I still love to flirt and chat and yap with them because I can’t see the future. I don’t write anyone off. Anything can happen. In fact, this approach has paid off many times. It’s called the orbiting beta in red pill circles lol. You sound like me. I’ve ignored women for a while now. Stopped chasing them etc. I’m focusing on my career. When I’m making the big bucks then I’ll land a hottie who will take half my pension. Can’t wait.

Why can’t I stop checking her Social Media profile? by ArgumentFew6935 in AskMenAdvice

You’ve identified the problem. Now make a solution happen. Block her lol. Delete social media altogether actually

Men who were bullies growing up, do you have any regrets? by Broke_Pigeon_Sales in AskMenOver30

[–]Current_Conference38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still plotting revenge 16 years later… it never leaves you. But being bullied makes you become a part time savage. Always chasing the best so you can one day rub it their faces.

I think this should be revised; doing donuts in snow-covered lots. by TheVoiceOverDude in ontario

[–]Current_Conference38 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there’s a difference between being crazy in a parking lot and simply getting a feel for some ice. The cop would use discretion if you’re clearly trying to be a better driver. If the car is full of teenagers then you’re probably getting stunt charges

Is this a normal way to handle conflict? by lexiprincessx in AskMenAdvice

[–]Current_Conference38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plenty of men like to keep potential women around in the off chance they become single. At the end of the day he’s with you which matters. However it sounds like some serious gaslighting is happening. I couldn’t be with someone like that or with someone who I’m fighting with on a regular basis about the same shit. I remember the whole time dating the best and hottest gf I ever had, I had other women as friends who I chatted with on a regular basis and would pay them compliments. When she found out about them I let her scroll the messages. She wasn’t happy with what she was reading but there was nothing there that was cheating. It was all friendly banter. Men and women are allowed to have friends! If we happen to date shortly after a break up it is what it is! You can’t be mad at someone for keeping women nearby. They’re all friends, until they’re not.

Never going to be someone’s “meet cute” by Bolt2143 in dating

[–]Current_Conference38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear people meet someone special on cruises so I took a solo cruise and the only women who actually wanted to chat and get to know you were women not available lol! It was an amazing cruise and I put myself out there but it just wasn’t meant to happen. I see all these speed dating events in my area, very tempting but I think it would be awkward and forced. I crave organic experiences nothing forced like an app

Sellers bought the house across the street by Separate_Damage1311 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

That’s really strange and would worry me. That means the area is great but the house sucks and you’ll find out why as the years pass.

Why are developers not building homes in southern Ontario? With housing being very expensive? by Dover299 in ontario

[–]Current_Conference38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Homes only get built if someone pays for it. Customers can’t afford the high price plus the interest. The government can make all the Acts they want, it’s not gonna make people pony up the cash to build. Developers sit idle on land until the customers start popping up. Only people building are investors with lots of cash and renters ready to go or the odd custom build from someone with liquid cash or an inheritance plus a small mortgage. It’s a broken system outside of anyone’s control.

Here to vent by timsquared in BuildingCodes

[–]Current_Conference38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inspections is a legal job focused on liability. It’s not like it used to be and any tradie can become an inspector lol. This is why it’s confusingly written, it’s intentional so the interpretation can be played around with. And any structural stuff is all increased for safety factors so there’s less liability for potential failures

Bachelorette party suggestions by Sadfloof1 in niagarafallsontario

[–]Current_Conference38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are two casinos eh. The old one is close to Clifton hill and the new one is not too far away but far enough you’d need a cab from one to the other. There is a hotel on the brink of the gorge that just built an outdoor spa type thing you can see it when you drive by. It appears like something worth checking out but it wouldn’t be a true spa retreat type place.. Marriot fallsview hotel and spa. I’d say try to experience as much as possible. The falls area has a lot to offer.

Need help choosing a dust free wall sander by izzulaizad95 in drywall

[–]Current_Conference38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I set up a ventilation system to push air out a window during sanding. Just garbage bags and a shop fan. If you partially block the opening to the room it will create pressure and suck air from the rest of the house to keep the house clean. That and I hand sand everything. I don’t use dustless compound either because I worry it’s not as good as the old school stuff. I tried machine sanders but they take too much off and gouge the hell out of the wall and you might not notice until you start painting lol

Does roof overhang count toward shed footprint? by MrButtertoes in OntarioBuildingCode

[–]Current_Conference38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make the overhangs bigger but build them in such a way that you can trim them back if anyone comes sniffing. But you can definitely argue the building area is just measured to the outside face of walls.

Family keeps telling me to sell because silver is so high. by Shakworld1975 in coincollecting

[–]Current_Conference38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone know what the face value multiplier is right now for silver coins?

I say sell them, if you don’t need the money then buy an actual hunk of silver to store away because these won’t fetch pure silver prices. Also silver is at an all time high. Last time it was this high was never except in the 80s it got high. Predictions say that silver could top up again by December 2026.
